Please note: this episode may deal with issues related to mental health problems. Viewer discretion is advised. Neither I nor the guest are qualified to offer mental health advice. I don’t say this to protect myself; I say this to protect you. Please, if you’re dealing with any mental health conditions speak to your doctor. You don’t have to choose between seeing your local church pastor or a doctor. You can do both. Also, speaking to an appropriately qualified psychologist or psychiatrist can be extremely helpful. Doctors and medicine are good gifts from God. If you’re concerned about your safety, please contact your local emergency or crisis services instead of seeking advice from people without the relevant qualifications online. I often have people reaching out to me for help with issues that are beyond my capacity and training. My advice is always to seek professional help in addition to speaking to your local church pastor. I hope this comment encourages you to get the help you need.

Thank you Alex for sharing your amazing testimony. Thank you Stephen for providing us with your channel and for not interrupting Alex so that he could let his memory and thoughts flow. But asking the right questions at the right time. Jesus is the true light.

I was raised in a Christian home, but meandered along my own path, exploring psychedelics as well. I had an awesome encounter with God where he imparted knowledge and lessons but I was later warned away from these methods. I love how God deals with each of us, knowing us far better than we know ourselves. He knows what you're looking for and He's been following your life the whole time.

I love that he said we cannot abuse the grace Jesus gives us. I felt that to my soul.

When he started talking about Jesus pulling him up out of the water, I suddenly remembered a dream I had around 4 years ago. My life was in shambles, I was alone for the first time ever. I was contemplating ending it all. Then I had a dream that probably saved me. I’m an artist and a musician in real life although I’m not blessed enough to do that for a living. But I had a dream that I was doing a consultation for a painting with a client and the client was Jesus. He wanted me to paint the scene with him walking on water and Peter coming to him. I was asking him about colors and all the stuff I would ask. I was actually out there with him walking on water as we discussed it. Unfortunately, none of the details were ever clear for me and I didn’t remember the dream when I first woke up. I went to take my morning shower and as I’m standing there and my feet are in the water, the dream came back to me suddenly like a woosh. I felt stunned like I had been smacked by something as I remembered the dream. I collapsed to the floor of my shower a sobbing mess. I felt like the dream was Jesus telling me He is there with me and He will pull me up out of the water. Life was my water, I was drowning at my absolute lowest, but He was there. I believe I’m supposed to paint Jesus walking on water, but life is still hard. There’s barely anytime to use the gifts God gave me while I work a regular job to survive. If you’ve read this please pray that I am able to make the painting soon. I don’t want to let God down. I love Him so much and I want to do what He has asked me to do. Thank you for this channel for the testimonies. They really help me with my own walk with God.

Thank you for Your testimony. I had experienced hell on Ayahuasca. The feeling of aloneness was like nothing I could imagine. Beyond desolate and hopeless. Terrifying. I did not have the encounter with God or Jesus. But it made me realize I am a sinner. I became a Christian too. I have the fear of God but I long for the experience of the love from God and Jesus. I will keep seeking. God will grant me the love and joy from him if it is his will. 🙏🙏🙏

It's not his will so if you have a paranormal experience, you'll know that you're not yet saved or the Holy Spirit would have protected you from it.

Stephen great to meet you in person the other day! I had and have had since so many questions about your journey and the channel but there you go. Have gladly posted this on to various home groups I am involved with in local churches and on the FB page. This young Chinese fella has an irrefutable story that is one of the clearest examples of how God works in the hearts and minds of folks who have never known or experienced anything of his love and grace. Superb and dynamic chat that is the polar opposite of “religious”. So liberating and free to hear this and again be reminded of the daily fresh goodness and faithfulness of God to all who come to him, or to in this case, folks who weren’t even actively seeking him. Extraordinary and authentic. Thank you and be blessed and refreshed on the rest of your break.

I hope this channel encorages more believers to share their experiences on drugs because I think it happens more than we know. I had an experience two months ago and I would've sworn up and down I was alone in that. And I fully expected to be tormented in that space and felt that was what I deserved, but I reached out to God and He reached back. What surprised me most is how much my mind was blown while the biblical theology was still completely perfect. I won't tell anyone what to do but I can't help but wonder if the God of the Bible was welcomed more in the practice would he show up more. But typically the kind of person that would experiment with drugs doesn't want to run into the God of the Bible, lol. Either that or they don't think God would be interested. I certainly didn't, and I'm a believer.

Mind-altering drugs are the gateway to Satan. God is not making house calls in this dispensation of the Mystery (Ephesians 3:9 KJV). You either accept the gift of Ephesians 2:8 & 9 and receive eternal life that cannot be lost (Ephesians 4:30 KJV) or you don't and you will cease to exist at your physical death.

Deuteronomy 18 will tell you exactly what God thinks of pharmakeia, witchcraft and sorcery, so it's unlikely He'd show up during your use of those practices to reward and bless them given that God cannot contradict himself and his word is so abundantly clear on the subject.

@@paulbryden-bradley7846 God isn’t blessing or cursing anything during the dispensation of mystery grace that began after Acts ended. He’s not angry or approving of anything we do or don’t do. He’s just holding out the free gift of eternal life in Ephesians 2:8&9 and seeing who takes it.

@@dfkuz I don't agree with that description, but I agree in as much as abstaining from psychedelics isn't a good work that can save anyone, salvation is a free gift, but if someone is taking psychedelics they probably aren't meeting God on them and they probably aren't saved.

@@paulbryden-bradley7846 The mystery is made possible by the fact that Jesus Christ paid in full the sin debt of all mankind. Because of that God has no wrath for sinners as he is satisfied with what his Son accomplished at Calvary. I can understand why some believe in universal salvation but I believe that God respects our free will so those that consciously reject Christ as their Saviour will be left in their graves, and the rest he will judge righteously. Everyone became a Gentile after Acts - Colossians 3:11 - and Gentiles were never under the Law, so it doesn’t get any better than being alive during the dispensation of the mystery of Ephesians 3:9 and Colossians 1:25-26 KJV. God has so much grace for the world that you’d have to tell him that you don’t want to go into the kingdom he’s planning to give to his Son, Colossians 1:13 KJV, to be left out of it!

Marriage- sacrament. Confession- Sacrament of Penance . Sacrament of Baptism- washing away original sin and the whitening of the wedding garment is our souls after baptism.
