[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I didn’t even know what being a Christian was, I thought it was just to know who God was, as this guy in heaven, keep all the commandments without breaking any and go to church. Over the years I started to get understanding, but I only understood what it fully meant in 2019, I came to a full knowledge of Christ when I joined a church in a new city. I fully understood the sacrifice of Jesus, the need to have a relationship with Christ, the need to hear from him, of how free I am of condemnation and of how I am truly loved without conditions.
