I used to help oversee a drug cartel in Sydney, Australia for the triads. Through the Lord’s intervention, I got saved while in prison. A very well–meaning pastor then taught me to work for my salvation. He also warned me about grace–filled churches and false doctrines. By the time I got out of prison, I was ready to work for God and give my life to Him as a slave.
Eventually, living under the law made me feel like a failure as I could never meet God’s standards. In the past, I could win victories for my boss through large drug deals or taking new territory. But in this “new gang”, I could not even win against myself. I finally gave up, left church and went back to selling drugs.
Two years later in 2007, a friend from church gave me some “new teachings” he had stumbled upon. It was a whole series of Pastor Prince’s teachings on grace. But I did not listen to the sermons immediately until I was hurt really badly by my girlfriend at that time and my drug business went bust. I no longer lived like a drug lord, but like a junkie.
I cried and cried and ended up listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon CDs. That gave me the courage to go back to the Lord and I started attending a church in Sydney.
Today, I am fully restored. I got a university degree, married a wonderful wife, and we are both serving in church. I have also overcome my addictions and my mind has been renewed.
I want to thank Pastor Prince from the bottom of my heart. Please continue to shine the amazing light of God’s grace.
