I do not understand why God would save me. All I know is while I was in the very acts of mocking and blaspheming Jesus Christ and His children, He saved me by His Grace alone.<br />Give praise and thanks to Jesus Christ. He is the One that has done the work.Dane Eidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763037705885277542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8888686645298019907.post-30885319217847932732009-06-18T16:15:51.489-04:002009-06-18T16:15:51.489-04:00Dane
I just happened to be over at Joe E Holman...Dane<br />I just happened to be over at Joe E Holman's blog (Very interesting guy)<br />and clicked on your name. WOW, you could imagine my surprise as I was reading your new blog. I got big ole goose bumps as I started reading, and tears began rolling down my cheeks. (please don't tell anyone)<br /><br />You were the 2nd person I ever talked to on the computer. Mr. Loftus was the 1st. But I remember our conversation that night. Actually if you read my blog on "If I became an Atheist" you are the former pastor I mention.<br /><br />God is good, so good he gave a good ole boy like you a wonderful loving and praying wife.<br /><br />I'm sorry the church or other Christians treated you so bad. Unfortunately I see others as well who have been abused either by religion or the religious. Maybe God will direct some of those who have been abused to your site? <br /><br />I will be praying for you. Thanks for sharing your story.<br /><br />Peace, feenofeenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483769284197614547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8888686645298019907.post-28516651818745469702009-06-11T07:04:53.829-04:002009-06-11T07:04:53.829-04:00Thank you, Dane.

If it were not for the Spirit of God working through the prayers of his Saints I would not have been set free. I am so grateful Jesus never left me. His forgiveness is greater than the worst sin.<br />God bless you Grace.Dane Eidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763037705885277542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8888686645298019907.post-10265706229939613492009-06-10T19:33:13.060-04:002009-06-10T19:33:13.060-04:00Hi, Dane, it's me, Grace. What wonderful news....Hi, Dane, it's me, Grace. What wonderful news. <br /><br />It's true God's love in Christ for us is unconditional whether we realize it or not. He believes in us, even when we can't sense His presence, and is faithful through everything.<br /><br />Dane, I'm so sorry for your pain, and that you've been treated in this hurtful way by other Christian believers especially. May God forgive them.<br /><br /> But, I've been holding you, and your family in prayer ever since that day when we first talked. <br /><br />I wanted to share with you too, that it's my firm conviction that faith does not mean the absence of doubt. God honors all of our sincere questions, and honest searching for truth. It's really okay. We can relax into our unity with Him in Christ.<br /><br />This Scripture totally speaks to me:<br /><br />Romans 8:31-39 (New International Version)<br /><br /> 31What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36As it is written: <br /> "For your sake we face death all day long; <br /> we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."[a] 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.<br /><br />Dane, God bless you, and Delores. Hope to read more from both of you on your new blog.Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018475588969974790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8888686645298019907.post-51233913512396302142009-06-10T17:00:23.350-04:002009-06-10T17:00:23.350-04:00Dane im very reeleaved and proud that this has hap...Dane im very reeleaved and proud that this has happened we all pryed that it would...know that i love you very much your sis cindy....cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923856472164853605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8888686645298019907.post-65892854484834633882009-06-10T16:51:45.887-04:002009-06-10T16:51:45.887-04:00Dane i am so releaved and proud that this has happ...Dane i am so releaved and proud that this has happened to you ..we all prayed that it would . know that i love you very much your sis cindy...cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923856472164853605noreply@blogger.com
