What good things has he done for you personally ?
(Not just quoting verses about salvation and forgivness )

I mean real life every day things that are not distant theology but here & now blessings of the power of God at work in our lives ..that sort of thing.

Example. Some years back i knew God did not want me to smoke . its bad for me and he loves me.hedoesnt desire me to do things that are bad for me .
I prayed and asked him to give me the wisdom to stop (i chain smoked)
7 days later i was a non smoker. Hence The lord jesus (on multiple things) is my lord and my deliverer. He delivered me from smoking.

I tried to get free from nicotin chewing gum and tbe kids must always have everything so I have no cent and all egoists only ask and give nothing when you need some. God doesnt care. I'm full of hate. I actually think I hate Him when I'm not drug addicted. I jate everyone and everything. Smoked from the street a filthy old thing no money for chewing gum. Fisgudting. Firdt give me a twinbfother. Let him die. The give me a man to let him dump me in a mental hospital and ruin my life. Gimme smoke. Girst thing I buy from my salary tomorrow is smoke to not care about anything and laugh stupid. Too lazy to change all the stupod letters.

How would you respond if you met someone who was delivered from smoking or some other unwanted habit using another name or another method, the result being the same?

To your first quote and question:

Who? I believe the Yeshua described by the 2 witnesses Matthew and John is the most accurate we have.

Good things personally? When I follow and do the teachings as taught by Yeshua in Matthew and John I benefit spiritually. When I disobey them I do not. It is that simple for me.

Every day things? Like choosing which cereal to eat, "speaking in tongues" and eye popping manifestations of moving mountains (spiritual or otherwise), faith healing, receiving "gold dust" and "gold teeth" and other such displays?

None. I leave those things to others who do not seem to be satisfied with the teachings in Matthew and John as described, because at times and in certain situations it is hard enough to follow them without even bothering with the "extras".

Yes I have no choice. If I follow Him I do well. If not, pffffffffffff.

It seems not many people want to take your offer.

I'm happy that I started to trust Him sometime ago.

I'm becoming His friend and because He protects those that love Him, I have been protected against attacks from God's enemy that were been done on me and my family by those that do not know him.

There were some scars, but after the battle was finished, who do you think was still standing around? AmadeoIS.

I could write a book about those events. They are in the past so we need to look at the future, at our eternal salvation.

I prayed to Him to help his humble servant and He listened.

There are many other interesting in my life, but we should be more interested in what Jesus did and we should learn how to imitate Him. Is difficult but if you do it with LOVE everything is possible.

There are no impossible with God. We are so selfish and proud of what we do. When we act in the opposite manner, we get rewarded.

I thank my Lord for all His blessings and I believe more are coming if I continue to follow in His footsteps.

MY LORD PLEASE,
LEAD MY FOOTSTEPS.

its not that folks aren't interested in the offer to share .. sometime people dont see a new thread or they see it but think it over for a while .

also folks flock to conflict easier .
two friends sitting on a seat conversing draw no crowd ... two people fighting ,alway draw a crowd lol

but i dont want you to 'write a book " just share one thing you would put in it :D (or two or three . ;) )

many speak about many things around the lord jesus , its all interesting .
but HERE .. is sharing about the lord HIMSELF ..
our walk with him our talk with him his goodness to us in our every day lives how he has led us guided us helped us rebuked us transforms us .

- i broke my toe a few weeks back .. was soo painful haha . my wife laid hands on it and prayed .. and it was healed . by healed i mean .. running on it and stomping my foot an hour or so after it happened . i was more amazed then any one else haha .

yeah.. nah ... no thanks its speak of faith , not jesus- it's like testifying of your faith in your faith . tell us about what the lord has spoken to you about in your life and what he has done for you ,how he has saved you healed you delivered you set you free -tell what good thing the lord jesus has done for you -testify of the outworking of the power of his love . not theology and doctrine and opinion and denominationalism ..tell me about the lord JESUS himself and how he speaks to you and how you respond and what the result of that was ... ?

-example , my wife had a dream ... (for brevity i wont post it all) the lord told us in the dream to get Baptised in water .. he spoke and set "put them INTO the water .. and it was so and we, though dead , lived again . so (short story ) we went and got baptised in water in the river . and the lord delivered us of demonic oppression and i got healed . it was so amazing .

see .. the pattern? .. the lord spoke to us we responded and good things resulted .. we can testify of it because it happened and none can take it away from us .
