[@jgeph2.4]

In 2014 I was trying to get this Christian girl I met to watch the four horsemen video with me as I was an atheist . She told me that night how she came to Christ and I appreciated her story but said I’d never be a person of faith because I could never believe all those stories In an old book. The next morning the Lord gripped me up In a way that shook me to the core and as fast as I could I text that girl and asked if could go to church with her , that something was wrong . That evening on a Wednesday night i went with her to the weekly mid week Bible study and as the music started to play and everyone began to sing I looked around confused and when I looked up at the lyrics and started to read them the conviction of all my sin came upon me and I began to weep as I read the lyrics of a loving Savior who came to take my sin and died for me . I’ve never been the same . More and more aware of my sin and more and more in awe of Jesus Christ our risen LORD . Amen 🙏🏼

"One thing I know, once I was blind, but now I see." There's a truth in my life. I was a lifelong atheist for 55 years. Then one day, I decided I was going to collect all the lies I'd been told about God, as an atheist mind you, by reading the Bible! Really. I thought I would go straight to the closest thing to God, his word, and just lift the things I could throw in my Christian family's face about all the lies "they" told me. I found out, the lies did not originate with my family, but more than 100 churches my parents checked out in one service or another, trying to find a fit for them. They were Christian, I was not. I became an atheist right after leaving home and discovering there was such a thing. Back to finding the lies I'd been told -- by time I had read from Genesis to Revelation (which took me a few months) I was so floored by this multi-faceted God that was so STEADY, I didn't know what to think. I knew one thing: none of the churches I'd been to ever explained God like that! Well, of course not. No one spends hours every day in a church for months to hear the Bible read. Or nearly no one. I decided to read it again, and before I hit the New Testament the 2nd time, I just suddenly KNEW that God was really REAL. That period where I was reading to prove other people liars was my fog. Little did I know at the time I was being led. So happy to hear of another soul joining the ranks of the godly. Great interview. Thank you for posting this!

I was raised Pentecostal, and as a young child, I had questions about if God was really real . Well, God blessed me with seeing his miracles with my family to let me know he was real ❤️ 🙏 and I thank him for that cause I was the type of kid who it had to be proven to me and make sense. So again, thank you, God, for what you did 🙏 !!!! The very first miracle was when me my mom and twin sisters were heading to town on a back paved country road when we heard a noise and the pavement being ripped up . My mom looked at me and then my sisters and said, "Start praying, girls, and of course they did while I had my eyes on my mom ." She started praying and then speaking in tongues and tried to put her hands on the wheel, but she acted like it was hot and just raised her hands up and prayed louder .Now, all this time, I'm looking at the stering wheel and the breaks . All of a sudden, I noticed the steering wheel was moving like someone was driving it . It slowly moved our car toward the side of the road with ease and came to a gentle stop without my mom's assistance, and then she started thanking God. Later, we found out that the drive line broke, and that's when it really hit all of us cause that is what controls your wheels . We were going about 50 or more when this happened. God took the steering wheel and took us to safety and put us on the side of the road, and gently stopped us . This is when it hit me that there's really a God, and I saw his miracle 🙏. God bless you all 🤗❤ !!!!

At the time I was becoming interested in God, but, I didnt exactly pursue Him. Anyhow, my passengers screamed, something invisible grabbed the wheel, took the car around the roadworks and into and then out of a field and stopped the car when we were back on the road. When they calmed down my passengers congratulated me and all i could say was it wasnt my hands on the steering wheel. Jesus? Angels? I dont know, but, i knew by then there is a spiritual realm so i was grateful but not shocked. My friends just thought i was joking, but, i set them straight...Somebody Else saved our lives that night! Thanks for sharing...i hadnt thought about that incident for years.

For you who believe God is still in the miracle business, please pray for Susan Blackmore. She is an atheist author friend of Dawkins. She once was studying the occult as an atheist skeptic but still had a demonic out of body experience. She was a bit ridiculed by her atheist colleagues for believing it was real and flipped around and decided it was all in her head. She was messing with stuff she shouldn’t have been. As a new believer God gave me a dream that led to me learning what happened to her. I emailed her and witness to her and she emailed back a couple times. That has been 17 but I still pray for her when I think about it. A more powerful kingdom needs to become real to her. And the King who loves her.

[@_BillyMandalay]

It 's almost a saul alinsky tactic... When you can't disprove GOD, you simply call it a "Delusion".

[@lifethroughromans8295]

@sheRoyals - Dawkins' mockery of God is out of ignorance of what the Bible says. This is an explanation about who Christ is that I wrote to someone based on the Biblical scriptures. @mosesrivera2054 - See, Jesus and the Father are one identity acting from two personalities. In other words, when Jesus was on Earth as a human being, He was simultaneously in heaven also. Don't take my word for it. Let's listen to Christ himself. John 3: 13, "No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven." In heaven, He is the divine Father revealing as Holy Spirit, on Earth, Christ is Father's human life. As a human, he doesn't know things. As the Father in heaven, he has access to all information. This is why I say Jesus Christ is Father in identity, but not in personality. And, the Bible agrees. Father is the only true God (John 17) Romans 9: 5 "The human ancestry of the Messiah who is God" Old testament, Isaiah 9: 6, The Son... will be called the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father. Concerning "sitting at the right hand side of the Father" in heaven, In heaven, nobody is going to see 3 chairs. One for Jesus, Father and Holy Spirit. The Bible doesn't teach that. In heaven, we will only see Jesus Christ. Why? Father is existence himself. In other words, we are within the Father, not just us, the entire creation is within the Father. There is a verse in the New Testament that says about the Father, "We live and move and have our being with him". Being means existence. The "him" here is the reference to the Father. Not only creation, even the Father's revelations, the Word and the Spirit, that reveals the Father is within him. Father always reveals himself through His Word and Spirit. Since the Word and the Spirit are standing in the Father's presence as His revelations, they have an independent personality from the Father. However, for the question, who has revealed himself as the Word and the Spirit? it is the Father. We have a name for the Word when he stands in the Father's presence as His revelation, we call him "Son". (Not Son of God, Son since this is the Father himself in a revealed form called the Word) When the Word appears among sons of God in heaven aka angels in an angelic form, we call him "Son of God". This doesn't mean God is an angel. It simply means God has appeared among the angels in an angelic form, and when he appears on Earth, Son of Man (member of humanity). So, basically, it is the Father revealing himself as the Word, and with that independent personality as the Father's revelation called the Son, He appears visible in heaven in an angelic form called the Son of God, and when the Son of God appears on Earth, Son of Man. Now, if you have observed in the Bible, when the Father speaks, the Father always speaks by the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ also said the Holy Spirit won't say anything of his own. He will only say what he hears and he will glorify me (Christ) because it is from me that he will say what he will make known to you. Basically, when the Father speaks, it is the Holy Spirit speaking. However, when Jesus Christ says, "I will send the promise of my Father, the Holy Spirit", in other words, when the Spirit moves, this is the other personality of the Father. The Spirit revelation that stand in the Father's presence or Father revealing himself as Spirit. When we read the scriptures where it says "The Spirit of God moved over the surface of the waters" in Genesis, do you think God moved over the surface of the waters? If you say so, the next question is, if God is everywhere, how can he move? He can when He reveals himself as Spirit and the Spirit moves. The one who is everywhere, we call him Father. When the Father reveals himself as Spirit and moves over his creation and moves into those who accept Christ's blood, this revealed personality is the Holy Spirit. Basically, sorry for making it long, in heaven, we will only see God's visible human appearance, Jesus Christ. It is the only way to see the Father by his creation like us since the Father is existence himself, meaning, this is the only way to see a God who is everywhere through His visible revelation Jesus Christ. Hence, we don't have 3 chairs in heaven. Sitting by the right side doesn't mean, there is a chair. Sitting by someone's right hand means ruling on behalf of someone. Father's human identity will rule heaven and Earth until death itself is destroyed. Then, Father's human life, the Son (Revelation of Existence) will give up the Kingdom to the Father (Existence himself). 1 Corinthians 15: 24, "Then the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power."

@vernonhedge4530 - As an atheist, has anyone said the following to you about God. Jesus and the Father are one identity acting from two personalities. In other words, when Jesus was on Earth as a human being, He was simultaneously in heaven also. Don't take my word for it. Let's listen to Christ himself. John 3: 13, "No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven." In heaven, He is the divine Father revealing as Holy Spirit, on Earth, Christ is Father's human life. As a human, he doesn't know things. As the Father in heaven, he has access to all information. This is why I say Jesus Christ is Father in identity, but not in personality. And, the Bible agrees. Father is the only true God (John 17) Romans 9: 5 "The human ancestry of the Messiah who is God" Old testament, Isaiah 9: 6, The Son... will be called the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father. Concerning "sitting at the right hand side of the Father" in heaven, In heaven, nobody is going to see 3 chairs. One for Jesus, Father and Holy Spirit. The Bible doesn't teach that. In heaven, we will only see Jesus Christ. Why? Father is existence himself. In other words, we are within the Father, not just us, the entire creation is within the Father. There is a verse in the New Testament that says about the Father, "We live and move and have our being with him". Being means existence. The "him" here is the reference to the Father. Not only creation, even the Father's revelations, the Word and the Spirit, that reveals the Father is within him. Father always reveals himself through His Word and Spirit. Since the Word and the Spirit are standing in the Father's presence as His revelations, they have an independent personality from the Father. However, for the question, who has revealed himself as the Word and the Spirit? it is the Father. We have a name for the Word when he stands in the Father's presence as His revelation, we call him "Son". (Not Son of God, Son since this is the Father himself in a revealed form called the Word) When the Word appears among sons of God in heaven aka angels in an angelic form, we call him "Son of God". This doesn't mean God is an angel. It simply means God has appeared among the angels in an angelic form, and when he appears on Earth, Son of Man (member of humanity). So, basically, it is the Father revealing himself as the Word, and with that independent personality as the Father's revelation called the Son, He appears visible in heaven in an angelic form called the Son of God, and when the Son of God appears on Earth, Son of Man. Now, if you have observed in the Bible, when the Father speaks, the Father always speaks by the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ also said the Holy Spirit won't say anything of his own. He will only say what he hears and he will glorify me (Christ) because it is from me that he will say what he will make known to you. Basically, when the Father speaks, it is the Holy Spirit speaking. However, when Jesus Christ says, "I will send the promise of my Father, the Holy Spirit", in other words, when the Spirit moves, this is the other personality of the Father. The Spirit revelation that stand in the Father's presence or Father revealing himself as Spirit. When we read the scriptures where it says "The Spirit of God moved over the surface of the waters" in Genesis, do you think God moved over the surface of the waters? If you say so, the next question is, if God is everywhere, how can he move? He can when He reveals himself as Spirit and the Spirit moves. The one who is everywhere, we call him Father. When the Father reveals himself as Spirit and moves over his creation and moves into those who accept Christ's blood, this revealed personality is the Holy Spirit. Basically, sorry for making it long, in heaven, we will only see God's visible human appearance, Jesus Christ. It is the only way to see the Father by his creation like us since the Father is existence himself, meaning, this is the only way to see a God who is everywhere through His visible revelation Jesus Christ. Hence, we don't have 3 chairs in heaven. Sitting by the right side doesn't mean, there is a chair. Sitting by someone's right hand means ruling on behalf of someone. Father's human identity will rule heaven and Earth until death itself is destroyed. Then, Father's human life, the Son (Revelation of Existence) will give up the Kingdom to the Father (Existence himself). 1 Corinthians 15: 24, "Then the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power."

Why do you fear being an atheist?

[@gregshell8570]

I live across the bridge from Portland. When The Government and the "weird people" let their city implode into insanity, then your eyes open. No one goes to Portland anymore from Vancouver WA. It is heartbreaking. That was such a wonderful and beautiful city. We watched it die. I love my memories of being over there.

[@raevj]

Evil has captured many cities, it is a spiritual battle.

[@angelaliles4689]

Beautiful testimony. God is always working in our lives🙏🏼

[@nkirukajasminesaunders3284]

Thank you for sharing this testimony. Praise God

[@Saint_2487]

Love this story and testimony! I’m continuing to pray for my childhood best friend who is an atheist to come to faith in Jesus Christ and be saved!!

[@donnaklaus2772]

This video made me cry with joy! Such a beautiful journey ❤

[@educatetube]

Very touching. Thank you.

[@AhopefilledBeliever]

I just sent this to my family. Please pray!!

[@ToChristBTheGlory]

I just prayed for you; praying that everything went well. God bless❤️🙏🏼

[@AhopefilledBeliever]

@@ToChristBTheGlory thx so very much! It helped at the time! 🥰

[@ngrnmck]

It’s so good to hear I’m not the only one that noticed all the evil happening in the world that woke me up also. I just had a total epiphany and fell to my knees and repented for a month it seems like when I think back. Then I studied for three years. I would start in the morning, and stop to make dinner and do dishes and get right back until late at night I couldn’t get enough. I was so hungry for the Truth. The Case for Christ is such an amazing book.

[@Thenextperson]

This is SO good!! Yes Lee Strobels book is a good one! I’m so happy for Josh and his family! ❤

[@marksmith351]

Wow - this is the best story/video I’ve seen in a long time. It renews my hope in pursuing the lost. Thank you all!

[@jockyoung4491]

Why are you "pursuing" anybody. Live your own life and let others live theirs.

[@berean007]

*******All praises to our King!!! The Lord Jesus Christ!!! Now, may he bring Richard Dawkins into his glorious kingdom for the honor and glory of His Name!!! God bless you brothers!!!

[@mollymolly2512]

Thank you for this interview!

[@marcellasusanmoser3802]

That took Josh a lot of courage to share so much background. Thank you for saying that it was not a bash session. I praise GOD for Josh's salvation, and for the salvation of his wife. I think I would like to hear how his parents responded to this change, as Josh did say that he grew up going to church. Outstanding interview!!! I loved the support given, as Josh shared his story.

[@stalfosguardian5573]

This is why we pray for our enemies. Our struggle is not against flesh and blood...

[@Jesus_MyLordandMyGod]

Wow. I got saved the night I watched the movie The Case for Christ.

[@Jesus_MyLordandMyGod]

@Disagree in peace I was in the process of "investigating" as two coworkers were witnessing to me over weeks. A little here and a little there I started to make sense of things I before just dismissed. By the time I was watching the movie I was starting to believe that I was more ignorant than I originally thought. Then, right as Lee Strobel says "Ok God, you win" I suddenly felt different. It was as if in a single instance, I believed, repented, was shown (supernaturally) what I was, and then I cried out to God to forgive me and I then felt a forgiveness I didn't even know I needed. From that night forward I could never again be without Christ. When I sin, when I am happy or sad, when it's good or bad, no matter what I know that I know that God took on flesh, died for me, and paid for my sins. He is everything, no matter what, Christ is all that matters in the end.

[@erinsmart8422]

Praise God ♥️✝️ Praying for Dawkins daily ♥️

[@PilgrimLJC]

Wow! What a fantastic interview! I am left feeling a oneness with the four of you at the table through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Very good all the way through! Posting on FB. Praying for each of you and Richard Dawkins.

[@donaldbrewster5705]

The thing that stood out for me is how Josh was being lead to Gods saving grace. While he was seeking safety for his family God was giving him eternal life. PTL

[@elizabethsummermeado]

I am SO excited to see where God takes this new heart on fire for Jesus. Josh is so intelligent and enthusiastic. Just imagine what kind of kingdom advancing work he is going to do! I will be praying for him and his family. Thank you Josh for your story, such a gift. 🙏💕🙏

[@jeremycorrao]

Amen! I'm praying that my sister in law comes to the same conclusion that Josh did! Praise God!

[@elizabethsummermeado]

Oscar, I just bought the book The Case for Christ for my husband for Father's day. Thank you for your stories from your point of view from former atheist. It gives me all the hope for my husband, an unbeliever. Please pray it will help radically transform his life. Love Living Waters so much 💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏

[@colinm610]

Lord I pray for Elizabeth's husband - I pray he reads that book and it convicts him also to come to you and be saved. Amen.

[@susanlewis6000]

[@victoriacharlesworth7099]

Wow! That is fantastic about Josh! It seems atheism knows zero humor in its darkness. How loving to know you still pray for dawkins, I will follow suit. The Lord is magnificent and we all want dawkins and his followers to know Him. God bless you all at Living Waters. Hallelujah 😊✝️🙌💕

[@lindafreeman7490]

What a great discussion. Thank you!

[@pnp6408]

What an honest testimony. Evil men purposely unleashed the virus in 2020 and so much evil was exposed because of this. This former Atheist was saved because of this evil. Reminds me of this scripture in Genesis 50:20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
