  • Once, I was a summer monk in Thailand. I had a thought that I wanted to be a monk for the rest of my life. But God revealed himself to me. Faith in God isn't a religion, it's relationship.

    God/Jesus bless you, Justin! I was raised as a Buddhist/Atheist (but only titular/nominal) but then I received Jesus in my heart as Lord & Savior when I was 16. Thank you for your testimonial and I shared it on Facebook. Kup koon mach ka from fellow Thai Christian! 🙏🏽💛

    Praise God!! He loves the Thai people. I went to Thailand as a baby Christian, only three months old, in 1992 and I saw the power and glory of God revealed in amazing ways. If any of the children from Ban santi suk ... did I get that right? ... it meant Christian Happy home I think ... if any of those children remember my visit to your orphanage way back then, I just want to thank you and Rose and the other saints for letting me see such love and truth in Jesus Christ our Lord while I stayed with you. And all the other saints in Chaing Mai, Chaing Rai, and Bangkok who blessed and cared for me while I was with you all :)

    Praise the Lord for salvation, what beautiful testimony brother!😊💜 I myself have to go through divorce and being homeless with 2 young children in order to to come to know the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior. Broken...that's the word. God have to knock me down on my knees fir me to finally look up. I have to be broken and from time to time, I still messed up because being saved doesn't make me sinless for I am still a sinner only saved by God's grace which I don't deserve the first place. Like an egg that needs to be broken in order to serve its purpose, I need was broken too. I love how God go after you and pursue you. Just like that Bible story of the shepherd going after that one sheep. We are His sheep and the Lord is our good shepherd. My back ground was exposed with false beliefs and lies too. I believe that religion(man made sets of rule depending on "works")is man searching for God but with Jesus is God searching for men. No one can ever work their way to heaven and salvation is a gift that's why is free. Ask and it shall be given. I will start putting you on my prayer list and pray for your spiritual grow and that you be surrounded by other believers as well. All Glory to the Father. Please take care, stay well and God bless you.😊💜

      He found the truth. Jesus. There is only one life, then judgement by God. He will be found innocent because of Jesus's blood. He is saved. Buddha can't save you from hell. The gate is narrow and few find it to Gods kingdom.

    Justin and I traded religions! Around the time he became a Christian, I converted to Buddhism. Here's my story:
    I spent the first 13 years of my life as an Evangelical Christian, but slowly began changing my religious identity year by year. At age 13, I began practicing Messianic Judaism to bring myself closer to God. After going to mass with my grandparents on October 31, 2010, I started identifying as Roman Catholic. Two years later, I was shifting between Protestant Christian faiths (Lutheran, Anglican, Episcopal, Presbyterian, Quaker). In 2014, at age 17, I developed an interest in the Eastern Orthodox Church, which eventually led to a passion for Eastern religion. When my faith in God died after a series of unfortunate events throughout 2014, I stopped practicing Christianity altogether and made the decision to become a Buddhist. Recently, I've been contemplating monastic Buddhist life to heal the damage done by the past 21 years of social/religious poison.

      I too was raised in a religious home (Catholic) until my brother was murdered when I was 19. Then I became an atheist, but then wound up in new age after going to a psychic to find out if my brother could be contacted & that started me down that tarot card/crystal road type thing. It wasn't until years later that I realized I had never been a Christian, not really. I kind of just had done what my family custom was, but did not ever experience it for myself, on a personal level. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out there really is a Jesus and He can be contacted. I'd never really thought about what being born again meant. All I know is it was the best day of my life. You're given a brand new heart, almost with the innocence of a child, a new soul, a new spirit, and a new mind. In the spiritual realm, you're transferred from death into a new life. Everything was new, everything felt new. It was amazing, and the best part was this immediate connection and friendship with the living God. I was tripping out that all this time Jesus is REAL! I just had to meet Him for myself. I don't care for religion either so I get how you feel. I just hope you get to meet Jesus too because He really is such a great Person. He is seriously the most kind, sweet, loving, and tender human being ever. I still find it hard to believe He wants anything to do with me, but He does. The love He has is beyond description. One taste of that, then you go "Oh, I get it". Best part is it's all free and you can go straight to Jesus yourself. The least we can do is give Him the time of day since He went and died for us, right? I hope you have that pleasure one day.

      Marvin the Maniac All things have been entrusted to Jesus by My Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son, and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him. Jesus said "Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.…
      Only Jesus can give you peace and rest. Jesus said "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid."

      You didn't know God.... You knew religion... If you knew JESUS you would never live Christianity.... Jesus hated religious people... All religion talks about doing good you reach heaven... JESUS said it done!! Accomplished! I finished... Only trust me.... He didn't say trust religion or trust catholicism... You have to learn more about history and who created religion and destroyed humanity..
      Jesus came to give life and life in abundance..... And talking about Buddhism its very easy to say there is no GOD so people can feel free to do what ever they want... At the end if someone commits a crime... Even a judge whether you like it or not he is going to judge you not by your good deeds you have done... But by what you have commuted.... How much you think a GOD who created heaven and earth and a JUST God... When you will stand in front of him will you not be judged????
      That's why Jesus came and gave life... He said I am the way.... The truth and the life....
      Buddha said I don't know the way!!! I i rather follow a men and a God who died and resurrected from. The dead than a man who didn't know what was the truth,who don't know the way and he is still in the grave!!!
      God bless you

    Those who do not understand the essence of Buddhism will migrate to other religions, especially Christianity. Buddhism and its philosophy are deep and vast and at times difficult to grasp. It’s not for the faint of hearts. Buddhist believers therefore become frustrated very easily because they don’t see instant ramification! Only those who see through the veil of ignorance will recognize the beauty of Buddhism!

    How a missionary creates discord within a harmonious society and makes people of the same blood living in the same village for generations together fight each other vicously. This story describes the situation of the native Americans.
    Long ago a Jesuit priest traveling, spreading" the word of god", teaching about sin and heaven, was snowed in in a far northern village for the winter.
    He sat in with the People as they wintered, telling stories, sharing, laughing. He taught bible lessons. The People listened respectfully, some agreeing to be baptized. When the thaw came, he left with provisions and a warm goodbye.
    The next year the priest went back to the village for a visit. He was shocked to see the contention and division there. People against people, anger and animosity. "What is happening here?" he asked. "Well", he was told, "some began to accuse others of being unChristian and of sinning and giving up Heaven for their old ways of honoring Creator. Families are split. Some say you said this, some say you said that".
    The priest went to see an elder.
    "Priest", the elder asked, "what woukd happen if you had never told us of god and sin and Jesus?"
    The priest said, "the bible teaches that a soul who has never heard the gospel and learned of Jesus would be blameless and go right to Heaven at death."
    "Then why did you tell us?" asked the elder.
