Testimony of Niranjan Kanna a Slave of Sin
June 28th, 2009
This is My Testimony
My Name is Niranjan Kanna . Born in Hyderabad.
Andhra Pradesh State, India. I was raised in a Christian Family
My mother was Born again Believer in Jesus Christ.
But my Father is a Social Worker. He did’nt Known Jesus with His Heart.
Jesus is Only In His Mind.
So when we were Living in Nizambad district of AP.
we Lived a Life with no relatives We r in the Hands of JESUS
He saved us from all kinds of circumstances. Because
My Mother was Born again and Lives for Him.
Then i went to school. i Have One Brother One sister.
SO everday My Mother and we all Pray with Fear of God.
Singing Hymns and Praising God. my age was 7 years may be at that time.
i was lead byGod. But when i joined school. My Mind was Coruppted with evil thoughts.
I used my self will to do the things of flesh.
No One is there to advice or to stop me from those ugly things.
Playing and doing all kinds of Ugly things was my life at that Time.
That was my school life. Then after completion of 4th Grade we shifted to Hyderabad city.
Then i was lead by my flesh and its lusts doing all kinds of sins.
Slowy watching movies and learning sins commited by them in TV.
started doing those sins but i had no peace.
But my Mother takes me to Hebron Church Golconda Chowrasa, Hyderabad.
There They Strictly take me to Sunday School. I used to cry in Sunday school
because i was separated from my mother. So i had fear to Go to church because they separate me from my mother.
In those days also i used to do all kinds of ugly things of lust of flesh.
and in the 10 th Class and i was introduced to smoking by friends and then
slowly alcohol.(But the way of the wicked is like total darkness.
They have no idea what they are stumbling over(Proverbs 4:19).
I have failed in 10 th class and later in second attempt i passed with average marks.
so i had no interest in study. i had set my mind to fullfil all fleshly lusts.
slowly i started robbery from friends pockets and mother and fathers money to use them for alcohol to buy ciggeretes to enjoy with friends.
I became a small thief for my self. Then i Had Friends who r Rowdy sheeters
They are Involved in all kinds of sins and one of my neighbour took me to internet cafe
with Him He showed me porn sites then i was addcited to them and chatting with others.
i use to follow them i dont wanted to be Honest and i wanted to be Like the mind of Goliath.
So i set my mind i building body. so i started eating food with much Chicken
and mutton, so after one year i became fat. Then i was also failed in intermediate.
But my Mother never stopped Praying for Me. My Brother was Not like me. He is sincere.
after some days after becoming fat i experinced Hell in my Life.
Because of the sins which i commited there is No Peace No Joy No Satisfaction.
i have tried to do work for little salary but i had no peace i was Like that I lost all my Life.
(Proverbs 5:11 In the end you will groan in anguish when disease consumes your body.
12 You will say, “How I hated discipline!
If only I had not ignored all the warnings!
13 Oh, why didn’t I listen to my teachers?
Why didn’t I pay attention to my instructors?
14 I have come to the brink of utter ruin, and now I must face public disgrace.”) This was My Life.
I cried daily on my bed to be saved from that Hell which i was experiencing in my life.
So my Life was Like that going for some years so i was hated by my brtoher.
because i was lazy. One day One Pastor came to our House and arranged a meeting he
came to our many times but i was in darkness. Then He told me to read Bible from first to last
He gave me One Testimony of small sister How she reads Bible How she Completed Bible
So i decided to read Bible so i started reading Bible secretly in my Home and Loved it.
before reading From Beggining (i.e. Genesis) i had some knowledge of Psalms read Bible sometimes in past like pslams 91 and 23 psalms.
But i never read whole Bible in my life. SO i started reading Bible. Then Bible Showed me my sinful nature slowly i feared God. so i thought that God GIves Me Knowledge. in proverbs it says “fear of the God is the beggining of the Knowledge” so i feared God for Knowledge. SO God gave me some knowldge He showed How fool was i doing sins and lost Good Health. My Heart was Mourning in the presence of God.
Then I loved Word of GOD very Much. and read all the old testament and Law but i had no knowldge of law then i read proverbs and Bible showed me my sins and I was Begging for Gods Mercy.
Then i little by little completed Old Testament. But I Loved and eager to Read New Testament which i never Read.
Now my Heart is thirst for Gods word. but i had no salavation. and i dont know anything abt salavtion. i used to chat with friends on internet discussing abt God and debating with them that Jesus is GOD. But for Myself it was not revealed to me.
Then i started searching the Truth and Typed in Internet “Google” website and saw many websites quoting the Gods words.
Then it Showed me Jesus Words I read some words from it ” Jesus didnt spoke any word by Himself But whatever God gave Him He spoke” These Words Comforted me Very Much.
SO i started Believing in Jesus Slowly i became a Lover of Bible. daily meditaitng on Gods Words i Tried to be like righteous person. because of the fear of GOD and HELL.
Because i Know that i definetly Go to Hell because i commited many bad sins.
One evening i was at Hotel One Brother invited me to come to church then i went with HIm Hebron Church which was Near to my House
AT Golconda Chowrasta. slowly i learned about Gods grace and How he Forgives our sins.
So i started Going to Church Regularly showing my family that i became a Good man.
Then suddenly i stopped alcohol some Bad qualities are disappeared My Freinds are drunkards.
it was difficult for me to stop it. It was Miracel in my Life. But by Gods Mercy i stopped it. then slowly smoking and all vulgar things.
Then it was continued for many days and I’ve accepted Jesus in Church and filled the Decision Card and gave them.
Then on September month in 2008 one day i was reading the Book which i was
written by Brother Bakth Singh about Fullness of GOD. Then Suddenly i felt like some thing came forcefully from my back and Touched and Entered into
me. i trembled with Fear it was Gods Presence. Holy Spirit Touched me cleansed me my sins and circumcised my Heart.
Then i experinced much Peace then God took me to church on other day with trembling i went to church and i had an enthusiasm to share my experience with others. in my Home we had a Dsicussion abt GOD in my Home By Brother was talking abt Gods Law and He said we r Not Under Law We r Under Grace. i didnt know abt that Because i was reading Gospels inthose days. Then days Gone it was revealed to me that My sins are Forgiven God spoke to me by Pastor of Hebron church.
Then i Had the Assurence of Forgiveness i was Thirsty to hear Gods Words in Both Church and TV. Now my New Life Begins. but didnt overcomed all sins many evil thoughts disturbed me daily in my dreams and in day. i prayed to God with fear but inevitebly i cant stop evil thoughts and desires. i thanked God for delivering me from sins. All alcohol and drinking and porn. Then i read Bible and Acts chapter Gave me Much Peace. Gods Miracles i have read n Acts Chapter And Imitated Peter. This Words are in my heart daily “JESUS is the Way the Truth and the LIFE”
Days are Gone Like that i falled many times in sins commited with my eyes and with mouth speaking ugly words. But God’s fear was with in me. I was Very Happy that God was Living in me. So i meditated to be HUmble like Jesus Sermon on Mount became my Lovely Words. Now Iam BORN AGAIN that what i learned form Church . I am Born of the Spirit as God said in Acts 2:17
I will pour out My Spirit up on all flesh”… God was with me warning in church of my sins i learned many Things from Church and Obeyed God in Prayer and reading Bible. days Gone Like that i was happy that i was saved. But the Lusts of Flesh remained like same. Motions of Body. I fully not obeyed GOD.
Then in 2009 One Pastor named devdas from Hebron church Spoke about Tabernacle. He explained difference Between Born again children and other who have Gone Forward Spiritually Grown Persons who had heard Voice of GOD. Jesus is My Saviour thats all i know i dont know to carry the Cross and Follow Him. I took Baptism on 23 May 2009. I didnt meditated on it. But i tried to follow Bible
Jesus said ” “Take up your cross and follow Me” I know this verse but i never applied in my life. Then after some days I was speaking to one person on the Internet He said dont u know Jesus said Not all Who says Lord Lord will enter Kingdom of GOD but those who do the will of GOd will Enter Heaven
These words Touched my Heart because i was not doing the will of God. Then He redirected to one preacher who is a preacher on Internet He was a Jew. Messianic Jew. He Follows Jesus and Obey Him. He speaks in Videos inYoutube website.
Then i started watching his videos. He Told me the Importance of carrying the
Cross. To die to self will and do God will. I asked Him By What does it mean by carrying the cross He said “Death to Self” and Following JESUS.
Then i Obeyed GOD With a Faith that He will Fill me With Holy Ghost. Because many prachers said that every born again child God gives talents.
Then i thought i had no talents Given By God because of not obeying HIm Fully. Then i prepared my Heart to Obey HIm fully. Then i thought its Internet. WHy do Jesus Force Me. Then i Went next day to Church There also they preached about Impotance of Carrying the Cross and Obeying HIm fully. GOD Hates sin.
From that Day God Spoke to me to follow Him and Stop doing sin. The Now it is Present day Iam Obeying GOD to Grow Spiritually and to do Gods Will. Thanks To GOD. HE NEVER Leaved me Nor Forsaked me. He was laways with me from my Childhood teachng me Good things to follow but i refused in those days But Now i prepared myself to follow Him with Love and Fear. JESUS DIED FOR SINS. AND ROSE FROM DEATH. This is My SONG Forever.
Please Pray For me. Thanks to GOD.

Dear Nirijan
I just want to assure you that we are saved not because we are good but purely by grace (the fact that Jesus paid the price for our sinfull nature). The bible says God made Him sin who knew no sin so that we can become the righteousness of God (read eph 2v8-9). So once you accept Jesus, you are made the righteousness of God and this has nothing to do with your deeds (it is pure grace). Rom 5v17 can be paraphrased to say that we will only reign in life through Christ because we receive ABUNDANCE OF GRACE AND THE GIFT OF RIGHTEOUSNES. Rigtheousness is a gift not a work, that is why God compares self-righteousness to filthy rags. God loves you and declares you righteous NOT BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU DO, BUT BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE IN JESUS. The church has been misled to think that we need to keep the law of Moses, and this is what is killing people because the bible says the law kills. In summary what I am saying is:
1. God loves, blesses, and CALLS YOU RIGHTEOUS because of Jesus’s goodness and not your goodness. Rom5V19 “For as by one man’s disobedience, many were made sinners, SO BY THE OBEDIENCE OF ONE SHALL MANY BE MADE RIGHTEOUS.
2. You need to know that you are God’s righteousness as long as you have accepted Jesus and this does not depend on what you do or do not do.
3. We overcome sin NOT BY KEEPING RULES AND LAW, BUT BY RECEIVING THE LOVE OF GOD, THE UNMERITED FAVOUR AND GRACE AND HIS GOODNESS IS WHAT LEADS TO REPENTANCE.Rom 6v14 says that SIN SHALL NOT HAVE NO DOMINION OVER YOU FOR YOU ARE NOT UNDER LAW BUT UNDER GRACE.
4. You will find that as you become more conscious of your RIGHTEOUSNESS (YOUR NEW NATURE) INSTEAD OF YOUR SINFUL DEEDS, YOU WILL HAVE DOMINION AND POWER TO SAY “NO: TO SIN. THERE IS A VERSE WHICH SAYS IT IS THE GRACE OF GOD WHICH TEACHES US TO SAY “NO” TO UNGODLINESS NOT THE GUILT OF TRYING TO FULFIL THE LAW. SO I encourage you to fall in love with Jesus, to meditate on the good things He accomplished for you on the cross. Just focus on the fact that because of Jesus, God calls you His righteousness and worship Him for this, and the fruits you are looking for will automatically follow from planting the right seed that God is at peace with you because of your advocate Jesus who has justified you freely!

Yes indeed We are Saved by Grace not by Works Lest ye boast. if we are saved by works We boast and we behave like devils.. Salavtion is not by works it is by Grace through Faith. Because of Self rightoeusness Jews are blinded. God had mercy on us Gentiles.. I completely believe and Love Jesus(Yeshua) from the bottom of My Heart For Showing me AMZING Grace. He had pity on me When i cannot overcome from sins and save my self. and He Gave His Life for me. I didnt recieved The Holy Spirit by my Good deeds or merit.. it is because of His Grace alone. Jesus Said Iam a GOOD Shepard.. I lay My Life for my Sheep// I lay down on my own accord.. I have power to lay it down and Power to take it back again. Jesus ROSE FROM DEATH. HE IS ALIVE (ALPHA AND OMEGA).Jesus said If you Love me keep my Commandments.
” For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” (II Cor. 5:10)
Der Bro/Sis mpume Thanks for writng this Wonderful mesage to me.. I love You with the Love of Jesus Christ. I may cannot see you Now in this world we will Definetely Meet in Heaven. Pray for me.
Your Brother

Thanks for being so open, transparent and vulnerable sharing this testimony from your heart and Mpume.
Thanks be unto our Father God for His Goodness that leads to repentance
And for His Grace and Mercy and Love, His Spirit that always leads us to triumph in Christ Jesus! Let us grow in obedience to the great commission in
Matthew 28:19-20 that all nations can be reached and bring Glory to our King, may the Lamb that was slain whom alone is worthy receive ALL praise, glory and honor and His inheritance, the nations, an ethnos people group from every tribe, nation and tongue!
He Loves you both so much!
Love, tour brother, Brandon
