I was an atheist but this incident has changed my life



Hello, my name is Marshall. I am 25 years old and I stay in India.
Here in this article I’ll tell you the reason why I started this blog
and also talk about an incident that made me believe in Jesus Christ
and changed my life.

I was born on January 1 to working class Christian parents.
I never believed in god because I thought it was so stupid to believe
in something that never existed and couldn’t be seen. I was an atheist
since childhood and I always disliked rituals, visiting church and
stuffs like that, but eventually I would do it because of my parents.
I never liked or celebrated Christmas (but I always loved Christmas
presents).I used to tell my parents that they waste their time by
visiting church very often. They used to reprimand me for saying such
things. But later they started to ignore my comments. When everyone
was at a church praying I would sit at home and watch TV...


I had friends of all religions and two were Christians. Sometimes I
used to discuss about god with them and tell them that they all have
turned into ignoramuses by believing in god. They would immediately
stop me from making such comments and tell me that I was crazy and
call me a demon.

Like other schools, the school in which I studied made students to
assemble in the morning for a prayer. It hated it. I would look around
during prayer and notice my friends deeply involved in this funny
ritual called prayer and so I considered them stupid. I even used to
crack jokes during prayer to distract my friends....

I completed schooling with unsatisfactory results and because of my
results my ignorant parents asked me to join a Christian college. They
thought I would turn into a believer of Jesus and study well by
Joining a Christian college .so I ended up in a college. Few months
later after joining college I met with a road accident which caused a
fracture in my Left leg. Though it was a minor accident my parents
told me that I survived because of my guardian angel Who Was Sent by
Jesus. I burst out laughing when they told me about it. So their poker
faces turned on when they say me laughing.


When I was 21 I meet a beautiful girl named Jessica who eventually
became my girlfriend. Even she shared the same beliefs about god.She
was very cool. She knew everything about me. She was kind and she
liked animals. We used to hangout all the time. After few Years We
both decided to marry. But I and Jessica knew about the fact that we
were broke and so we had to depend on our parents for money etc. So
after college I decided to search for a job. After a lot of rejection,
I got a Job in a small Insurance company that paid me rs.10, 000 a
month As Salary. It was not enough for a normal living...


I and Jessica had planned to buy a medium sized house before Marrying
so that we could live happily without any religious intervention.

Life was Awesome. Things were going great got my first salary so I
decided to treat Jessica the Next Day; I also purchased a surprise
gift (dress) for her. I made a phone call to her in the afternoon and
informed her about my salary; she congratulated me and told me that
she was happy about it. We decided to meet on The Next Day at a Nearby
Pizza centre at 1 pm.

I reached the pizza centre at 12 45 pm.i made a phone call to Jessica
and informed her that I was already there. So she told me that she
will reach The Pizza Centre in 20 minutes.

So I was waiting for her Outside the Pizza Centre. Few minutes later
I saw a man wearing a white Robe waking towards me from my left hand
side, when He Was About To pass in front of me, he looked at me And
Said

"Look, I could have saved her if you had believed in me".

So I said what?? He looked away and he started walking away from me.
His sentence confused me for few seconds and Later on i thought He was
speaking on the phone and saying it to someone else or maybe he was
mentally ill so he was speaking to himself. So I ignored the whole
incident.

By then it was already 1 10 pm, Jessica had not yet arrived so I Made
a phone call to her, but she did pick, after calling her number Three
times she finally picked my call, but to my surprise I heard someone
else’s voice. It was an old lady who told me that the person who was
having this phone had meet with an accident. I was shocked. So I asked
the old lady to give her the phone so that I could speak to her. But
the old lady said
 "Sorry sir she is no longer alive."
I broke down in tears. This was something which was so tough and hard
to believe. The old lady gave me information about the Accident
location. When I reached there I saw Jessica lying on the ground and
she was drenched in blood. People told me that she was hit by a car
which drove over her and never stopped. I broke down in tears. It was
a Horrifying scene .I felt so bad about It. later her funeral was
arranged and she was buried. All these disturbing scenes had made me
so weak. I started suffering from depression and was unable to console
myself. Even after Weeks I was haunted by The Accident tragedy. I
started losing my concentration at office so I took a long leave and
never went back to office so I lost my job. After few days my parents
wanted me to visit a church, they told me that I would feel better by
visiting a church. I was in no mood to argue with them so I visited a
local church and came back home. My parents turned on the TV and asked
me to watch god TV. So I started watching it. After some time I was
Feeling Tiered and Sleepy. I Decided To Turn It off. when I was About
To  Turn it off  I was stunned because I saw a picture of A Person on
TV ,he Was similar to the one whom I had seen near the pizza centre.
He was also wearing the same Clothes. (I Was so Ignorant About My own
Religion (Christianity) That I Was Not Able realize That The Person in
Image Shown on God TV Was Actually Jesus Christ and The Person Whom I
Had met Near The pizza Centre Was Also Jesus Christ).I immediately
took a Photo of that image using my Phone and showed it to my parents
and informed them about my encounter with that person minutes before
Jessica's death. They told me that it was Jesus Christ. I was
petrified after hearing it. I was like wow this guy (Jesus) knew about
Jessica’s death even before it had occurred. But instantly I started
hating him because he did not save Jessica even though he was a god.

For weeks his sentence "I could have saved her if you had believed in
me" Was echoing in my head. It caused a lot of confusion because I was
Unable to find the relationship between me believing in him and
Jessica's Life....

I started believing in presence of Jesus but I did not like him
because of the fact that he was unable to save Jessica.

No one was Able to solve the riddle of his sentence so I decided to
forget the whole incident and carry on with my life.

Later that year on Easter day I had a dream in which I was falling
into an endless abyss. Suddenly I saw a ray of light flashing on me
which scared me so I woke up immediately. After realizing that it was
a dream I feel asleep once again. To my surprise the dream continued.
The ray of light carried me to a different place where I Met Jesus
Christ .he had a light yellow halo around him. It was a beautiful
sight. He came closer to me and said something in an unknown language.
I told him that I did not understand his words for which he replied
that it is the language of gods. I recalled his sentence "I could Have
saved her If you had Believed in me" and I was desperate to ask him
about the meaning of the above sentence and also the reason why he did
not save Jessica's life.

So I started the conversation with him by asking him questions

Me: What do you mean by "I could have saved her if you had believed in me"?

Me: Also why didn't you save Jessica's life? You are god right?
You have the power to do anything

So he smiled and Started speaking

 Jesus: I Am the Son Of God, I Was Born To Save Humanity and I Died To
Wash Away All the Sins of Humanity.

His voice sounded kind and calm
After a pause he started speaking once again

Jesus: There Is Darkness in This World Caused By an Angel Who Feel
From Down From the Heaven, His Goal Is To Lead People
Away From My Father's Love. I Can Only Save People Who Believe In Me.

Me: I don’t care about all these god stuffs.i just Want Jessica back.

He came closer to me and placed his right palm on my Forehead and
spoke once again

Jesus: Believe In Me And You Can Meet Her Again. She Is In Heaven

After Listening to this I started crying.....


Jesus: I Am The Only Way To Heaven; Spread This Message And Your Life
Will Change.

Jesus: Spread My Message and Enlighten the World before its Too Late,
The Judgement Day is closer.


He then disappeared. I don't remember anything after that. I only
remember waking up in the morning. I made a Note of the whole
conversation and I informed my parents about my dream. They looked at
each other and smiled. They told me that I was so lucky.

After few days of thinking I made a decision. I knew exactly what I
had to do with my life. I informed all my friends about the dream and
one of them gave me an idea. He asked me to start a blog by collecting
stories about similar incidents and posting it in the blog. He told
that it would enlighten lives of people who read it and also take them
one step closer to Jesus. That sounded like a good idea to me. I also
felt that it was the best way to reach devotees of Jesus. So I learned
about blogs and started blogging. I am also reading the Bile now.


I request you to spread this message to the whole world and also help
me in my task of enlightening the world.

If you have a similar story or if you have had an encounter with
Jesus, please send it to me.
