Sometimes It Takes a Vision

Her story appeared in a major Christian magazine. Challenged by her college boyfriend to check into what she believed, she saw the religion of her parents and grandparents didn’t match up with the teachings of the Bible. This new understanding was scary and it frightened her to consider abandoning what she had been taught her whole life. It was as if her world was falling apart. What would her parents think? She couldn’t do it. She made excuses. From a childhood steeped in false teachings, she was surrounded by those who believed the same and grew up in a culture shaped by the same religion. Then she had a vision. It was Jesus on a throne being worshiped by heavenly beings. Jesus was part of the Holy Trinity! Jesus was truly God, and he was reaching out to her! She became a Christian. Sometimes it takes a vision.
