Cathy B and I were just sitting on my couch talking when this guy started banging on my door. At first I thought it was my landlord, but when I opened the door I saw it wasn&#8217;t him. The man was very loud and very forward. He said he came with an invitation to the Baptist Church in town and asked if I was a member of a church. I told him no that I attended home prayer meetings. Then he asked (very loudly) if I was saved, to which I answered, &#8220;No, I&#8217;m not dead yet.&#8221; Then he proceeded to wave a little bible in front of my face and tell me about the word! He was so forward Cathy got up and walked over. He asked if I had ever prayed the prayer to ask Jesus into my heart and I told him yes, and much more, that Jesus\u00a0had baptized me the\u00a0holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. That just went right over his head. Then the Spirit said to me, &#8220;Don&#8217;t say another word.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Then my phone rang and it was Sandy. So I told him he had to leave now and shut the door. I missed Sandy&#8217;s call but tried to call her back to tell her not to open her door. Cathy and I walked over to Sandy&#8217;s where this man now was. Of course Sandy pretty much told him the same thing. Finally he moved on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">That night I was brushing my teeth and asking the Lord to help that man. The spirit stopped me and let me know how much God hated the spirit that man was under. It was bad, and it kills and God really\u00a0hates it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Michelle<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color:#000000;\"> =============<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color:#0000ff;\">Yes He does, Michelle. I am glad that God gave you the opportunity to testify to that man, though. Maybe your testimony will be a seed that God will water. I hope so.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color:#0000ff;\">Let&#8217;s keep praying for all those who are serving the god of Christianity instead of Christ.
