Hi Nicolek,

I couldn't use your poll coz I was saved when I was about 10 years old...so I wasn't a teenager and I didn't fit the first category either.

I became a Christian when I went to this camp and I heard the Gospel message for the first time - that being a Christian wasn't just about being a good person but it was about believing in Jesus as Lord and Savior. I believed it straight away and have believed it ever since. That was 30 years ago!

love
evangeline

I was saved when I was about 15 years old. But I believe God dumped a great big splash of frigid water over my head. Finally I understood that indeed I was not a good person. In fact, "our hearts are deceitfully wicked above all things, who can know it."
Yes, then my life took a radical turn. And no, I didn't accept Him or ask Him into my heart.

I accept Him?.....I accept Him? OH NO, He accepts a wicked me. Yes, all I did was repent--admit I couldn't save myself---and put my trust in Him only to save me.

Mum always took us to church when I was very little, but then we moved to outback Australia. There were no churches nearby and we all fell away from our faith. I was saved two and a half years ago when I was 23.

I was babtised when I was 15 years old, now I am 27. But I remember trusting in God as a very small child and knowing that when I prayed to Him my prayers would be answered. I don't guess this is a question I can really answer, but thank God He knows, amen. So I guess I cannot do your poll, but it is nice to know that even though I may not know the day I was saved, God knows the very hour, minute and second, isn't that cool! Love, in Christ, Amber.

Honesty, I am also crazy for the Lord. I love it that you said that.

I will never forget, I was teaching 5th Grade Sunday School, and the preacher's son, saw me get all excited about Jesus, and he said, "You are crazy."

I said, grinning from ear to ear, "Yes! I am crazy! Crazy for Christ!"


What matters is Jesus

As a matter of fact, I will be 10 years old in Christ this June!! If this is what they meant by being once an adult and twice a child then, this childhood is the BALM!!! (I know that this is not what they meant but, it should be!!) Yes, I am baptised. This is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It even tops being married to a wonderful man and being the mother of a wonderful son.

I ticked the allways belived box but mostly because it is the closest. I have a distinct memory of a crises of faith at about 9 or 10 years. After this I decided to Follow Jesus.

But I am from a Christian home so God was always around before that.


so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe Philippians 2:15

i clicked the teens box: at 18 the Lord definitly grabbed me up. But from a child i had known the scriptures and i never doubted Jesus's death or ressurrection. But at 18 He made it clear he had died for me, and had a new life for me hidden in him on God's right hand. That was on April 2nd 1969 at 1:00 in the morning...my april fools day was over. ...DGB

I became a Christian at 4 years old. At first I didn't really understand it fully but as the years go on I believe my love and understanding of what Christ did for me deepens more.
