It was November 1, 1982 I was at a Friends house on cherry street in Waynesville, North Carolina. We were listening to a taped sermon, (at the time I knew that God Created all things and that Jesus was His Son but I did not understand the message of Salvation) Just earlier that day they asked to pray with me as we were standing on the curb next to my old nova and I remember saying yes but wanted all of us to scrunch down between the cars so no one could see me praying. I was so not with it. I thought that I was a "good person" but during that message, the preacher was talking about the mark of the beast and how we as unsaved people would go to hell without Jesus in our lives. Suddenly! my eyes were opened to the Truth, I knew that I needed Jesus Christ in my life! I bowed my head and quietly confessed my sins to God and asked Jesus to be my Lord and Savior. Well let me tell you, God's Spirit took hold of me in a big way! I started crying and I don't mean a small tear or a moist eye! I felt all the anger, the turmoil of my life and all the things of the world leave me in floods of emotion that I had never experienced before! My Friends all looked at me and it was as the room began shining brightly, they soon realized what was happening to me and we all started praising God! What happened to me in that little North Carolina house will forever be impressed upon my heart and I sometimes think, if I had not accepted the Lord Jesus Christ, I would be lost for eternity but God placed someone with me to guide me to the Light! I know that I am not perfect but God is still working on me and over the years God has used me as I am a willing vessel and I thank God that He Loved me so much that He gave His only Son to die for me. Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! The vision here at Big Gun Productions has been (and still is) is to make quality films that fall "outside of the Hollywood circle" and by doing so, we want to make films that please God, Glorify our Lord Jesus Christ and let our light shine. After much Prayer and thought, we have started Matthew516Films" and as part of our Ministry, we have decided to make short and feature films dealing with life's every day struggles that face us as Christians. I invite you who are like minded to think and pray about working together to make quality Christian films. We can not do it alone. Matt. 19: 26 26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Thank you for visiting and reading my testimony. Remember;there is only (1) one way to Heaven. John 14: 6 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the away, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If you do not have Jesus in your life, I invite you to do so now. 2 Pet. 3: 10 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. confess your sins now to God. "Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. Please forgive my sins and give me the gift of eternal life. I ask you in to my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior. I want to serve you always." May God bless you and keep you and I pray that you will walk with Jesus the rest of your life.
