Kourtney's Testimony of how God led her to this glorious Bible truth Transcript made from the video's YouTube captions. 1 come on sister Courtney we're so glad to have sister Courtney with us tonight her beautiful daughter and um Courtney is one of those uh special stories of how she found us and how the Lord led her to us and I'd just like for her to share her testimony of how she was searching everything she heard me preach the Lord had already revealed to her hallah and she was looking for this truth amen tell your story right I'm not good at talking without writing everything down first so um I love how um amen so the Lord has been working on me for maybe the last five or six years 2 like in increments so I started going back to church um when I was pregnant with my little daughter that's here um and she has a heart condition um so that was my motivation to get back into knowing god you know so I started going back to church and um I started reading my Bible and then the Lord started convicting me of little things here and there and I always just remember before I started reading my Bible always praying the sinners prayer and I was just like I just want to know the truth so I started reading my Bible and you know I started getting convicted on little things like 3 Halloween and then you know eventually it was um Christmas and so then I moved to Pennsylvania and then it started getting stronger I was going to a church in my in New Jersey that's where I moved from and so I switched over to a church in Pennsylvania and I started to go to that church and I learned all about Jesus before I didn't really know you know Jesus I just knew God and um so this church was all Jesus um but as I stayed longer at that church I started to thirst for more so I you know continued to read my Bible more and you know I started to um see things 4 in there and I noticed that they weren't talking about them at church like they weren't talking about Sin and all that um so while I was at that church I felt God was like telling me to leave cuz I didn't feel like I was growing so then I ended up leaving that church and I thought God led me to this other church that I was going to um so I went to this other church and at that same time that I started going to this other church God started revealing um the Sabbath to me and like I started you know I I don't know you need to do a teaching on that 5 numerology thing but um God started like I always would see numbers and I saw I kept seeing this one number and I looked up one night I was reading my Bible and then I looked at the time and I forget what time it was it but I looked down and I was reading in the Bible 11 it wasn't 11-11 it was whatever the verse Leviticus Leviticus um where he starts talking about my feast days and it was the Sabbath and it was the time on the clock so that's how um I came to the Sabbath um and then I went to the church the one day my daughter was um at their 6 cubbies you know they had a Cubbies sing and then a video came on and it was about keeping a Sabbath so I was like okay I think I'm supposed to keep the Sabbath um so and there are some other things that were coming up too and at the time I was still new at this church um so I went later um I took the month off of December cuz I already wasn't celebrating Christmas at this point um and I think it was like my first year and the whole church you know celebrated Christmas so it was really weird um but then we went back in January and um like 7 I really wanted to be on the worship team and in order to be on the worship team I had to be a member of the church so I had to like make up my mind so I sat down down with the pastor there and I had a whole bunch of questions and I asked them you know I had my convictions already about certain things so I asked him like his opinion but he had a verse or he had a reason why we don't do all these things and I was like I just don't want to disappoint God and he's like don't worry you know you can't let him 8 down like that stuff doesn't matter um so basically I kind of like um sucked it like I kind of just let it to the side just you know I ended up going to this church and you know being on the worship team there and during that time like I started continuing to read my Bible and I started getting more convictions he started leading me into not eating pork and you know unclean food and all that stuff and so I stopped that I changed like my whole family over um for the most part but the people at the church would be like oh are you Jewish 9 um so I kind of was like already like weird like I felt like when I would go around people at the church like I just felt like an outcast there um and I couldn't explain why like it like it just I never I loved the church at first but I felt like something was off so anyway um like I said how I went and talked to the pastor and he had he he had told me all these questions um but then later on like around the election time when is when I met that came across Pastor Toto um so I don't know the whole time I 10 was praying I'm just like you know God I just want to know the truth like I just kept asking for truth to for him to reveal the truth even if nobody else you know believed what I believed I just wanted to know like that I was doing the you know doing it right and not just um doing what everybody else does it it's like something fell off because everybody did the same thing and I know the ible says that you know like Satan deceives the whole world and that like broad is the road that leads to destruction so I was like okay there's something not right um so anyway I was 11 watching YouTube one day and I don't even remember what I was watching but somebody I'm very big on reading comments so I was reading the comments and somebody posted a link about something I don't remember what it was but it led me to um pastor's video and it wasn't the viral video so it was you know one of his regular school teacher videos and I clicked on it and he was there with his glasses and I was like what is this like this is silly and I started to click away cuz he was like hi children or like hi students so anyway I went to click off 12 of it and um then he started mentioning Yahweh and you know the name of the Lord so I was like okay let me listen and I kept watching and then after that video was was over I went to the the his videos and I just started looking I'm like let me check him out first let me see how he feels about Christmas let me see how he feels about Easter let me see how he feels about the Trinity let me see how he feels about the Sabbath so I went and like everything like he was teaching like how I was being led so I knew like okay I'm 13 not crazy and all these questions that I had like in his videos he answered them and then he had a video and he was like you go to your pastor and you ask him these questions and this is what they're going to tell you and I was like Wow and that is what the pastor told me like everything that he said in his video the pastor replied back to every single one of my questions so shortly after that I went um the Pastor said something about Sunday being the Lord's day so I went back to my Bible and I um wrote down I went from Genesis 14 to Revelations and I just started writing scripture about the Sabbath and then I took it to my home group that night and I told him I said that I said I don't agree that Sunday is the Lord's day like it doesn't say that in the Bible and like I don't know where you got that from so basically I mean it didn't turn out well for me they kind of chewed me out but at the end of the day I walked away and ever since then you know I've been a part of of this church so
