Wording of this Handout:
Some people want proof that Jesus is really the one who can change their life. Here's proof - changed lives.
I'm sure I would be a very different kind of person if I wasn't a Christian. Other 'arty' friends of mine seem to have grown wild over the years, and I suppose I might have too if I had not had Jesus in my life.
But there are MILLIONS of testimonies, by people who have had changed lives, and who will gladly tell anyone that Jesus made the difference. One of these testimonies comes from a man called David Watson:
Having known the love of Jesus in my own life for many years, and having seen this revolution of love taking place in the lives of hundreds and thousands of people whom I have personally met or known, I can never, never understand why some people do not want to get involved. There is nothing so beautiful or totally satisfying as the love of Jesus. It is always fresh and new and it is a love which never fails."
The Bible says: "And when they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by many demons, now sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and when they saw this they were afraid" Mark 5:15 (Richard's paraphrase)
