RR: Did you, was that the time when you really came to know Jesus as your Savior, through his witness? out there may be. I didn’t really want to give God my life. I felt I had to be good in order to give my life to Christ. And when he explained to me, you know, that God wanted me just as I was, that I could not be good enough for God, I’d never make it because the sacrifice of Jesus Christ who died on the cross for my sins and the sins of the world, just believe in God through Jesus Christ and ask Him to come into my life, to forgive me of my sins and be my Savior and my Lord, that He would. And it took me about a year later.
RR: And it took you a while. You said something a minute ago that I want to ask you because a lot of people have said this to me and I picked up on what you just said. You said, I didn’t feel like I was good enough to become a Christian. What did you mean by that?
DB: Well, what I meant by that is that, you know, oftentimes we think that we have misconceptions about what God’s Word says. We base most of our information on what the Bible says from what other people tell us and what we hear and what we think God should be. And oftentimes that’s a misconception. That’s how the devil uses other people or false prophets, antichrist, to influence our lives.
RR: You know it’s not true now.
DB: No, no question about it. You know, when I found out He died for my sins and it’s by grace that I’m saved through faith, it’s not a gift, it’s a gift of God. I can’t work my way into heaven.
RR: Nothing of yourself, but it is a gift of God.
