gone to a upc church and got baptised in Jesus name for the remission of sins
but did not fully understand what that really meant I only knew I did not want
to lose out going to heaven I had always been brought up in trinity chruches
but this apostolic church taught different so I decided to be baptised to play
it save so to speak Pastor John Mean baptised me in Jesus name but I think because I
was not gounded in the truth of Jesus name I felllby the wayside and my family
were aginst me going back to this church They thought everyone there was out
of their mind so I did not follow thorugh .

I have slipped at times in my walk though willful disobedience to what God wanted
from me but I have come back to Jesus and repented of my sin and Jesus has forgiven
me and retored me to full fellowship with Him No one is able to take from me the Holy Ghost
that is in me even through they try at times I cannot turn my back on Jesus and the Holy
Ghost gives me that strength that I so need as I am the only one saved in my family and some
days are extremely hard but Jesus is my strength and all power is in His name
