FROM GUILTY SINNER TO FORGIVEN SAINT


There were no finger prints, no one saw the murderer enter the office of the doctor. No one even heard the shots ring out, but the doctor was found sprawled behind his desk. 

Five bullets had pierced his shirt, it seemed the perfect crime, the police at first could not find any clues but then they noticed a tiny wire attached to a pencil holder on the doctors desk, the wire led to a tape recorder in a desk drawer. 

The investigators quickly rewound the tape and to their amazement, begun to listen to a reply of the actual crime. After the police investigation, I was imprisoned; while in prison, there I met an evangelist preaching the gospel of forgiveness and repentance. His messages were so touching and I did not know that I can be pardoned for my many sins. 

Miraculously, at the end of the crusade, he preached about the times of ignorance that God overlooked and now he commands all people every where to repent, he quoted it from the book of [Acts 17:30]. From that time up to- date, I accepted Jesus as my personal savior through baptism. And I learnt that Jesus can forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 

There may be some one as I was thinking that his sins can’t be pardoned according to human wisdom; truly I say unto you, unless you hear the sound of the trumpet announcing the second coming of the king of kings, your sins can’t be pardoned. The door is still open for you to repent and follow Jesus [1 John 1:9].
