Brian Welch's Testimony (KORN)

Brian gave his testimony...

I wanted to see for myself; and I will tell you, that it was a most blessed evening... I could just stop and weep and rejoice all at the same time...

The humility that came out of that young man, captured my skeptic heart and softened me.

There was no "pretense" no "quest" for attention on himself...

If you had been there and witnessed what I witnessed you would agree...his conversion was for Real...

A few things that made that clear was...
1. His opening prayer, was so precious, so humble, so from the heart of one who has recognized the gift of forgiveness and grace.
2. He said that since he has given his life to Christ; life has been more difficult in many ways, but he said that he talks with the Lord and is very honest with Him and PRESSES in to Him...and God brings upon him a Peace that he cannot explain...and gives him the wisdom and the strength to face the obstacles.
3. He had a choice to make: a 20 million dollar contract, or walk away and choose Christ. He chose Christ...He left the band at a time when his career was at its height...
4. Before he prayed for the congregation last night, at dismissal, he was straightforward with them and emphasized the importance of developing a prayer life. That if they don't continually communicate with God, then they will not make it.

My description of last evening is so weak in comparison of the awesome Presence of God that covered that building last night.

Many will have their opinions...but I must tell you I walked in a big skeptic, but my heart melted and my spirit rejoiced to see that God was Glorified, Jesus was Lifted Up and the Holy Spirit was working on the hearts and lives of the thousands of people captivated by the evidence of what God's Power can do in a life that appears to be hopeless....

I wish you all could have been there to experience this. My spirit is very sensitive to if Jesus is being lifted up vs man being lifted up...JESUS WAS HIGH AND LIFTED UP, in that young man's conversion.

Praise His Holy Name...

Awesome.

I am thankful for this brother. He loved not his life, even when faced with a ton of money. He loves the Lord, and he loves his little girl. May he grow mightily in the Lord.

What an encouragement this is! Thanks for sharing it Bonnie.

The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart; and a good report maketh the bones fat. Proverbs 15:30

Thank you for sharing the website. Apparently his book has been sold out in many places. Phx First (where he spoke last night) was able to obtain a shipment of the books...however, they too sold out before the service was over.

Brian's love for the Lord, and his love for his daughter is encouraging to see.

Thank you once again...Bonnie

BrokenOne...

:-)

I agree with you, Krispy. And also the "look" he has is still the same outwardly; but it just doesn't seem to match the gentle spirit that is clearly seen in his eyes.

I believe that in time, those "old things" will be put away...

God is Faithful to complete that which He has started....

Bonnie

I had absolutely NO idea who he was...so yep, you are right...I would not be the little granny running to the bookstore for the copy I just "have to have" hee hee.... :-P

I so appreciate the spirit in which your reply was made, Krispy.

Thank you!

B.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing your experience. :D

Jesus was popular with the lost and the needy, but not so much with the "righteous". Would you rather see less people interested in Jesus and what he can do in someones life? Does the fact people are interested in God make those versus any less true? Does the fact that his book is spoken well of mean he is a false prophet or false convert? Certainly not. Give him room to grow, hes new to the kingdom. I for one think its awesome these books are selling, I find it hard to believe anyone force but God would be interested in getting such a testimony into people's hands.

Hate to get off the subject but does anybody remember MA$E? He was a rapper with Biggie and Puff Daddy and then got saved through a dream. He then became known as Pastor Mason Betha. I read his book and saw him speak and it was very powerful because it's somebody I used to idolize in the Hip-Hop world.

I believe he truly got saved...but then a man by the name of Creflo Dollar picked him up quick and took him under his wing. Anyways, after 5 years, he went back to Hip-Hop because God told him to.
His first album was called "Welcome Back" and then he signed with 50cent and now I haven't heard from him since.

Does anybody know the story to that? (It's a shame that these born-again celebrities won't catch a break from so called Christians.)

I actually hate Rap/hip-hop and everything they stand for. "I once was blind but now I see."

Death Metal/acid rock/hip-hop/Heavy Metal....what a demonic religion!

I don't believe he needs to laser off the tattoo's but I agree with the other things.
