      +crb4059 Yes, I agree. After all the times I've heard him speak, there is a joy and a peace that emanates out of his heart which you cannot mistake. His countenance is so Christ-like that his words cause people to feel encouraged. I am grateful that David Berkowitz found his way to Jesus and answered the call of God on his life! In Heaven, I will look forward to meeting him and applauding him for what he did in the name of Jesus.

      He didn't change anything, he called out in all seriousness and sincerity & he humbled himself incapable of helping himself in anyway. This was his rock-bottom/dead-end. God answered and showed up to do what David couldn't do for himself, freeing himself from his sins. It's a disease and it causes death- we all have it & suffer from it. Everyone dies, no exemptions. 10- out of- 10 people die. Jesus is the door, the way out, the life & by His testimony if we will confess with our mouth that He died for us, took our place & rose from the dead, alive and calling all mankind to Himself, we all are called and we all have free choice to deny or accept & answer for ourselves. Everyone that says yes, will forever be changed & will live and be with God after this life, but also- during this life. These things are exclusive and personal & unique to each person. The results are real. David had learned that he had a loophole in the sentencing of his trial, a few decades after in prison, because of the years he was arrested during his trials, the laws hadn't officially been changed/upgraded to the newer/modern laws after he went inside- long story short, he was able to leave on a technicality after just one 25 year sentence if he decided to legally pursue/challenge the faulty ruling- he refused because he had now by this time already given his life to Christ & because of God changing him inside-out, he thought about the loss of what little peace and serenity & sense of justice the victims' families would lose if they were to know he was free and walking around on the loose- so instead he gave them the only thing that he could in the terms of loving them as himself & he gave the families their distance and comfort of knowing he remained locked up- because to the families, he was the same demon possessed monster they remembered. So he gave his life for them to have a semblance of their lives restored through time and healing, one of the mothers became very very close and began to know the transformed, Christ-filled him & she forgave him, loved him, wrote back and forth, and had phone calls with him for years, she gave her own life to Christ & they became the closest of friends and support for each other. They were even planning to tell the others that all is possible through Jesus & by God's power and grace- he can redeem anything and anybody and heal any conditions- even in the most severe cases such as theirs. They never got to meet face to face, because David refused to make it a public exploit and spectacle on tv cameras for the joint visit- so he called it off and I believe the lady died shortly after, maybe from a broken heart- only God knows. Point being, God did it all, and we cannot understand any of it, until it becomes personal and through the mind of Christ that people receive from this surrender to God, people can begin to understand things for the first time in a supernatural new way- by God's given, Holy Spirit, which the saved person retain's until the return of Christ- this is His "down-payment" so to speak for the believer to console in Spiritual union/connection to them until they actually join with Christ physically upon His return to Earth. It's really a beautiful and very personal love story between Our creator and us, and everyone who experiences God's Love, is changed and made a new creation forever- in that experience. That's the Power of God's love people know Christ intimately with those encounters and it can be repeated over and over, infinity- with every various & different person from every way of life, none too big or too bad or too small. It doesn't matter who they are or what they did. They all are forever changed, forever Know Christ and are forever experiencing the knowing of God, the knowing of God's love, the intimacy with the creator of themselves & that is what The Bible calls, The Mystery of God, His saving love & Grace... the real gift with real, lasting change & peace attached to it- with a real knowledge and presence of The ONE who made you, with you always, because GREATER is HE that is in them, than the spirit of the enemy of us all that is in the world. That is what happened to David & all who come to believe and give their life to Christ and come to know Him. It's the free gift that none of us deserve- and you'd truly be surprised to just some of the most greatest stories ever told are from those who have encountered and know The ONE TRUE LIVING GOD, & Jesus Christ xo
      It's never too late to call on the only name given to us in which men are saved. xo

      jeremy desrochers people like yourself will believe whatever is the most comforting, I find that a lot more "ridiculous" than questioning the existence of a supposed ancient religious figure whom has absolutely no physical proof of ever existing. And given the fact that the religious construct of the "Savior of humanity" has existed long before Christianity grabbed ahold of it and embellished it into the Jesus myth, yes....I doubt there ever truly was a Jesus. But people like you aren't interested in silly things like facts or inquiry, you just want to believe whatever lies float your boat... absolutely pathetic.

    I have high regard for what David Berkowitz has done with his life since giving his life to Christ. Not once have I ever gotten the idea or thought that any of what he has done since turning his life over to Christ is anything other than being done with purity of heart. In eternity, David Berkowitz is going to be remembered in Heaven as one of the great saints because he allowed God to use him as a vessel even when most people 'wrote him off'. Every time I have ever listened to him speak about his life since coming to Christ, I come away encouraged and uplifted. Keep up the good work David! You are making a positive impact on thousands of lives with your message of hope and redemption!

    I remember that dark period back in the 70s when I was a child and everybody was scared of him before he was caught. My Dad wouldn't let my Sister out at all. I have grown now and to see this Man transform for the good in Jesus' name is a wonderful thing. I can see the sincerity in his eyes that he just wants to help. He knows he's not getting out. This is all he can do, maybe he helped someone who he touched spiritually and helped change someone who was about to hurt one of us in the real world. If he did that, he is a Son
    of the Lord doing good. Not the son of Sam that he was. I didn't forget reading the paper or news on tv about those innocent victims who are dead now for almost 40 years that he killed. I pray the victims family and ultimately the good Lord will Bless his Soul for forgiveness when his true day of judgment reaches. Looking at him, I think it has. But that's up to our Lord to decide.Listening to him he believes God has forgiven him already and is in peace by helping.

      Dear Eduardo,
      I was reading your post it was very kind and genuine GOD bless you for that..not many people have a forgiving heart it is refreshing to see in such a cold dark world :)
      Eduardo I would like to share thee most wonderful news with you..and anyone else who will one day read this post.
      Eduardo GOD says we are ALL sinners every last one of us Romans 3:23 For ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD... because of our sin we will one day die
      Romans 6:23a For the wages of sin is death.
      Upon our physical death our soul will stand before a holy sinless GOD and this is the 2nd death Revelation 20:14-15
      14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
      Pretty simple if you are not found written in the book of life you WILL be cast into the lake of fire...for all of eternity tormented in the flame in conscious mental anguish.
      THE GOOD NEWS
      Jesus died FOR us
      Romans 5:8 Christ died for us
      He bare our sins in his own body(1Peter2:24)
      And GOD says in order to be saved from eternal hellfire you must confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that GOD raised him from the death and THOU SHALT BE SAVED
      Romans 10:13 says WHOSOEVER (that means anyone) shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
      You see our good works will NEVER be good enough to take us to heaven
      GOD says in Titus 3:5 NOT by works of righteousness that we have done but BY HIS MERCY HE SAVED US.
      ROMANS 6:23b THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD..a gift is free for the one receiving it ...however the giver of the gift is the one who paid..Jesus did all that needed to be done and by faith in his death burial and resurrection GOD says you would be SAVED from hell.
      If you realize Eduardo that you are a sinner as are we all deserving death and hell to pay for your sins and you believe that Jesus died to give you eternal salvation from hell then pray now believing in your heart cry out to GOD and ask him for mercy.
      May GOD bless you Eduardo.
      Your post was such an encouragement to me.

This seems to be happening all up and down this comment string. No one here is any better than anyone else and the people that accept that are ready, willing, and able to believe in something greater than mere condemnation and un-forgiveness; something greater than they are all together. We all need forgiveness for something or other. We all fall short of our Creator andIf you're unwilling to admit that, then you're acting like the very thing you disdain. If you won't forgive, you're no better than a killer. They're both evil, albeit in a SLIGHTLY different way. The root cause is the same. An incredible and deep sense of self-centeredness and pride.

    @evingrindle1929 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Moses had stage fright
    And David brought a rock to a sword fight
    You picked twelve outsiders nobody would've chosen
    And You changed the world
    Well, the moral of the story is
    Everybody's got a purpose
    So when I hear that devil start talking to me, saying
    "Who do you think you are?" I say
    I'm just a nobody trying to tell everybody
    All about Somebody who saved my soul
    Ever since You rescued me, You gave my heart a song to sing
    I'm living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
    I'm living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
    Even if you're not a Christian, I'd really encourage ya'll to listen to "Nobody" by Casting Crowns! It's so powerful and relates to David's story here. Apart from Christ, we're truly broken and vulnerable to all the horrors of this world, demons are very real as shown in his testimony. It's because we're created in the image of God that we are capable of some level of good, but as Jesus said "apart from me you can do nothing". Sure we can develop medicines to bring relief from disease, create coping mechanisms for mental illness, but these things will always be with us and on our own strength, we're helpless and only a "not quite", but in Jesus' name we are made whole and are capable of having peace as David does. Not only is this song such a beautiful reminder of God's love for us, far beyond what even any Christian such as myself can offer, I believe that just listening to music (not just Christian) with an actual message and something to say is far better than most rap, R&B, and pop that's out in main stream music today.

Despite what this man did he is still a beautiful joyful person we can tell it by the way he talks and the smile that reaches his eyes .How? The only person who can do that is God. That is his beautiful creation. We are all his creation. I am a completely different person apart from God. I am deathly afraid of that person because it is unpredictable, impulsive and self-destructive. When I am with God I am beautiful and my love for him shines and his love for me shines as well. There is no way to rehearse the things he is saying just to make people think he's changed when he has not. He is giving all the glory to God and is explaining how he has been given a gift of despite knowing he deserves worse. We are all given that gift we just have to accept it.

What a radical difference God has done through you brother to make a difference to many other prisoners. God is saying thank you my son for allowing me to change your life! You have become a fine, fine and awesome preacher to many hurting prisoners. I know I will get to meat you when we get to Heaven and shake your hand dude. Continue to bless hurting people always as you share the Word of God to the multitudes. Read Psalms 139 and hear God's personal love letter to you my friend. Read also Numbers 6:24-26 and receive the Aaronic Benediction blessing over you child of God. Realize you are a friend of God as is written in John 15:15. Again you are a awesome and fine, fine man and preacher of the Gospel. Imagine what you have awaiting you in Glory!! Wonderful and blessed Man of God, go forth and continue to proclaim the awesome majesty of God. God bless

    David is legitimate. All killers claim to find God but a few really do. God bless you David! Good to see the Lord use you to reach out to other inmates. Many are on a path similar to the one David was on all those years ago, if they don't allow the Lord to intervene in their lives they will end up in prison for life or on death row.

Keep in mind, King David, Moses and St Paul, ALL MURDERERS! Gods ways are not our ways and tho this seems unfair, i believe his conversion is true, which just shows you how kind God is. Repent all! Jesus is the light of the World. Your healer, best friend and a million other things.

    He reminds me of my father and his best friend. My father was a fiend, but everybody thought he was this amazing Christian man because he used to preach and because of his ministry. His best friend was a war hero (read psychopath) that claims he’s a saint now.
    Son of Sam shouldn’t get any attention whatsoever, Christian or not. He shouldn’t be allowed to talk to anybody other that the other inmates and the guards and the police nor should he be filmed nor be broadcasted. The BTK killer got inspiration by Son of Sam when he was killing people. That alone should tell us what’s wrong about making serial killers famous. Imagine how many wolves in sheep’s clothing the Son of Sam is influencing now - people who are thought of as saints by their church, people like Son of Sam, who first say “the devil made me do it” and now say “the devil made me do it but I’m a Christian now so listen to me”! Locking away serial killers is not enough, they shouldn’t be allowed to influence anyone! When good gullible people watch Son of Sam preaching they think, “great, another person saved, let’s tell the world”, but when psychopaths watch him preach they think, “great, I can do whatever I want”.

    People can say Religion is the cause of all evil but the reality is that we are empty without spirituality. Spirituality provides dimension and power to a person's life. Does anyone think that all the wars perpetrated for power and profit, at the cost of untold suffering, happen outside a demonic spiritual context? It should be obvious that Christian faith with its emphasis on forgiveness is what brings renewal to people and ultimately to nations and civilizations. There is no other solution to the quagmire of modernity. Living as though God doesn't exist merely allows people to rationalize behavior and existence itself into vacuous paradigms that only worsen the problem of human hatred and degrade love down to necessary self interest. What have the categories and analysis of modern psychology and psychiatry, or the products of the pharmaceutical industry done to restore health and wholeness to humanity? The fact is that nearly every mass shooter is a walking prescription cabinet.

    • @ichthus1890
      @ichthus1890 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Jesus died for our sins, rose from the dead and founded the Church on his disciple Peter. That is historical fact; (seriously look into the Shroud of Turin at Shroud.com) There is more evidence for the existence of Jesus than there is for Julius Caesar. Actual spirituality is distinct from a lot of things including Spiritualism, but many don't know that. People read Harry Potter type books, thinking the titillation of delving into witchcraft harmless but the long term effects are telling. Religion teaches that the afterlife exists, that eternity is populated with real spiritual beings. I find it curious that pop culture disdains religion, yet gluts itself on demonic fantasy. "The wheels of time grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine."

It’s sad that Maurice Terry died without peace in his heart because he couldn’t expose the truth. Maurice gave up his life investigating and reached out to David many times for the truth so he can bring justice to all the victims but no one believed Maurice and David won’t open his mouth. It’s really sad. If David really wants to change he should open his mouth about other killers and the satanic cults.
