Excepting My Savior Jesus & Becoming A Fire Fighter

So I had some questions for Rev. Gates. He gave me some answers & an invitation to the church. It took me many months before I went to church. Then after a while I accepted Christ as my Savior. And life was great I loved it. I started having Bible studying with some friends. And I decided I wanted to become a volunteer fire fighter & EMT & I went to an interview, which was very intimidating , but they accepted me. And that started my adventure as a fire fighter & EMT. In 1994 is when I got baptized with water & the Holy Spirit in total water submersion. When Rev. Gators dunk me under the water, I just expected to come up out of the water & feel no different, but when he brought me out of the water I felt so different. I raised my arm in the air & yelled yes.It was the most amazing feeling I ever felt in my life. My mom was there & she disappeared & I found her outside & I asked her why she left. She said she had a strange feeling & a tugging like on her heart. I told her she shouldn't have left. She could of gave her life to Jesus that day.


Nothing could bring me down. I was so high on life, on Jesus. My life had changes. I had never felt better in my life. It was wonderful. I was a volunteer fire fighter & EMT which I made it my life plus working at the Water District. I was no longer mowing lawns. I would work at the Fire Station & go to the Water Dist. & straight from the Water Dist. to the Fire Station.

Satanism

Let me back up a bit. Before I went into the hospital the first time I started to get into Satanism. I had a satanic Bible. At first I just took it as a joke. Then I read it again & took it a little more seriously. When Ben, my boyfriend that I lived with, was gone away surveying during the week, I would set up an altar & put up candles & a sword that Ben had & I had a chalice, which I'd cut myself & bleed into it & say a prayer in Satan's name & drink the blood.
