Lesson 12: Warring in the Word
Testimony
Testimonies of Freedom
Ken's Testimony
The biblical principles that I learned in the Setting Captives Free Boot Camp course have rejuvenated my commitment and love for Christ. I needed to be reminded of these truths as I fight for my purity and relationship with God.
This course was exactly what I needed to get back to winning the battle for my purity. Though it is tough to fight against my flesh when temptations come, I was reminded that though I have to make decisions to be a man of purity, ultimately Jesus has won the battle for me. I need only to remain in Him. Personally, I set boundaries of protection up in my life and have fought to be a man of integrity. Jesus restored me to fighting status and helped me to get back into the battle."
I recommend this course because of the appropriateness of this course. For people to be free from habitual sin, they must come back to looking at Jesus. We cannot be free unless the Son set us free. I am thankful that this ministry is here to help men like me get free with Jesus.
Sara's Testimony
These principles of the Purity Boot Camp course have helped me SO very much! I can't even explain. Wow. What an HONOR to share this testimony for the Glory of JESUS MY LORD!!
I have seen astounding transformation during these 30 lessons!! Tears fill my eyes because of the LOVE and respect I feel for my JESUS. The joy. The completeness. The oneness. The intimacy with my Savior these days. Even though I've been a Christian since 2009, the love I have for my JESUS is, in my understanding, so much deeper and sweeter, and more rooted, grounded, and mature than ever before. Jesus has won my heart with LOVE. He did not condemn me, make me feel bad, or shame me into repentance.
I can't even describe how HORRIBLE I felt about myself living in sexual sin - pornography and self-gratification. And it started with such a small thing. I NEVER believed I'd fall into such a trap as this. Never. But I did.
I can see my pride now and how it led to my fall. God revealed to me how I trusted in MY EFFORTS and strength. My fall into the sin has been used for good by God to humble me.
Now, I know that JESUS alone rescued me. Not me. Not my godliness. Not my strength. Not my determination. Not my earnestness and devotion and reading the word of God daily. Only JESUS and His CROSS that breaks sin's power. Once I finally realized that, and the Holy Spirit helped me BELIEVE this, things changed.
I came with my shame, nakedness, and nothingness to the cross of JESUS! I was in desperate need for help, knowing that HE was the ONLY one who could break away my chains of sexual sin. He was the ONLY one who could save and rescue me. Not me. JESUS succeeded where everything else failed! And, oh, how free my heart feels. It just leaps for JOY! I am beyond GRATEFUL!!
I LOVE Jesus! That's about what I can say right now. I am just in awe and wonder of the ONE who died to give me life. Yes, EVEN ME!!!! So humbled at that fact. In awe!!!
My mentor Kelly was GOD-SENT! I am beyond THANKFUL for her!
I recommend this course for everyone who struggles with sexual sin, but the principles taught can also be applied to EVERY area in life. Washing at the cross, walking by the Spirit, and warring against our flesh are powerful principles which lead to freedom in Christ.
