Dear All,
I am a normal joe just like everyone else out there. I believe there are others out there like me who faced similar problems and bondages, and I would like to share how God helped me overcome those problems and struggles in my life. Below i will talk about my sex addiction, alcohol addiction, drug addiction, bondages of the world, dabbling with the occult - Freemasons, etc). I could never have overcome all of this alone. All glory to God!!

You won't find the following in-depth testimony written by me below anywhere else on the internet. Why did I bother typing all this, I also don't know. Nobody instructed me to type out all this and share it. Maybe God? I hope it will help those who is in need of help, especially those with problems and struggles in your life. Those who feel they have a perfect life, please stop reading this. My writing might seem ridiculous to you.
My purpose of being in here in this religion thread:» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
My purpose of being in here in this religion thread is to share my testimony on how God changed my life and to share the Good News. (you may share your own testimony too if you have one.)
God doesn't owe us anything. But God saved my life and many other lives out there, therefore I owe my life to God (even before he saved me). I have found peace and joy in my life now. And I feel spiritually full in my soul and overflowing after being touched by God. Have you ever felt a sense of emptiness in your life before? You have already achieved what you want to achieve in life. And you feel money is not everything. What else is there to look forward in life than all the things you are doing now? Or why on earth are you here for? If you are that person, please read on. If you disagree with me, you have a choice whether you want to continue reading or to stop reading. You can control your own eyes. I can't control your eyes. Don't get angry at me for sharing. You can control your emotion. I cannot control your emotion

My advise, if you really want to understand all this, please read the Good News below like you're reading a story book when you first heard your first storybook being read to you when you were 4 years old. If you are a teenager, in your 20's, 30's, etc and beyond, if you use your current head knowledge and understanding in facts and figures, black and white, you will not be able to understand what 2.2 billion people believe in. If you want proof and scientific evidence out from a laboratory to prove all this, I cannot do it and neither can the 2.2 billion people. That is why it is called FAITH. I can only say one thing is for certain; that God is real based on the lives he has touched and changed. And I am one of them.
Thank you God for coming into my life. All glory goes to God!!What is FAITH?

Part 1 - Sharing the Good News
Part 2 - Sharing the Good News - Why can't we stop death? Adam & Eve
Part 3 - Sharing the Good News - Why is there evil on earth? Who Is Satan?: What Does the Bible Say About the Devil?
Part 4 - Sharing the Good News - Who is Jesus Christ?
Part 5 - Sharing the Good News - Unresolved Bondages and DeliveranceBefore I accepted Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour, I had no idea or clue about this at all:- Unresolved Bondages and Deliverance
Little did I know there is more than meets the eye. "What you don't see, you don't believe. When there is no proof, you don't believe". This is the understanding of the worldly world. In fact, I began to realise and understand that the spiritual world is more real than the "what you see world". What you are about to read below is my personal true account. These are details that Satan, the devil and the world of darkness and evil forces do not want you to read (ever!)
This is my personal account of my testimony on the bondages I personally faced and experienced deliverance. All thanks and glory to God !!
deliverance (dictionary meaning)
1) The action of being rescued or set free: "prayers for deliverance".
2) A formal or authoritative utterance.
3) The act of delivering or the condition of being delivered.
4) Rescue from bondage or danger.
Have you heard of this below?
"My boyfriend cheated on me. My girlfriend cheated on me. My wife cheated on me. My husband cheated on me", having affairs (single men with married women, single women with married men, married women with married men, girlfriend cheating on boyfriend, boyfriend cheating on girlfriend, etc.).
_______
Unresolved Bondages and Deliverance:Note: Think back over your past as far back as you can remember and mark any of these things that you have practised, been involved in or experienced. In order to be fully released from your struggles, everything must be brought out into the light. If anything is hidden (do not hide), then neither the help of God nor human counsel can be forthcoming.
Are you walking in the darkness or walking in the light?
Walking in the Light
Word of God:
"This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John: 5-9)

All the above-mentioned are some of the bondages of this world. We are all born sinners. We are not born to sin, but we are born with sin. I have experienced some of them and I'm sure many people out there (especially the Malaysian youths and young adults) may have gone through similar or even more than me.
I would like to share my experience and how I managed to overcome the following bondages below with God's help, grace and mercy.
1) Sex addiction (pornography, visiting vice dens / brothels, freelancers / escorts)
2) Alcohol addiction / clubbing / rave / party like a rockstar (drink until drunk)
3) Gambling addiction (casinos, lottery, 4D, "mah kei", etc)
4) Drug addiction (ecstasy, bong, "fai cai", cocaine, heroine, etc)
5) Occult - Freemasons (indirectly involved)
1) Sex addictionIt started off with watching pornography on the internet. Then it wasn't enough. I was going out of control. I used to visit those vice dens / brothels / unhealthy karaokes in KL and around the world. I even ordered foreign freelancers/escorts when they came to Malaysia. In KL, some of the popular vice dens treated me like a VIP (that's how regular I was). I would even get sms on the latest "stock" arrivals and FR (field report - BJ, CIM, etc). Let me tell you this, I believe that the urban male community (approx. 8 out of 10) have visited these places before. Have you visited? Only God knows. When I enter those places, it is packed with guys, like a "shopping mall on year-end sale". To name a few places in KL; S*yrver, S*boon, E*, 3 star hotels, etc. After a while, it was boring as it was too easy. I needed the thrill of chasing - after a girl. That's when I started to hit the club scene.
There are so many people out there committing adultery (guys and gals). Be it prostitution, or having affairs. The belief is that "It's OK cause everyone is doing it". And "as long as i don't get caught by my wife / husband / boyfriend / girlfriend, it's alright". Then there are those that give the reasoning: "what's wrong with it? It's legal in some countries; Holland, Thailand, Singapore, etc. It's good for the economy, etc". That's exactly what the power of darkness wants you to believe. I thank God, being given a second chance at life to share this with others.
2) Alcohol addiction / clubbing / rave/ party like a rockstarI used to to be addicted to drinking alcohol especially during my clubbing days and used to party like a rockstar in some of the most happening spots in the world with VIP treatment - Hollywood, Orange County (O.C) USA - (yes exactly like in the movies The O.C), KL, Singapore, Germany, Thailand, Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, etc. Also attended rave parties, etc. I even got drunk talking nonsense about politics and economics with an A-list Hollywood celebrity in Hollywood in a residence filled with A-List celebrities. I used to hit the clubs whenever I broke up in a relationship. Spending more money opening bottles, binge drinking (5 seconds, 10 seconds), and getting even more girls from the clubs. After accepting Christ, I realised that alcohol addiction is not good and can only get us into more trouble.
Explain why alcohol is good? "Allan, because it relieves me of stress and calms me down when I'm worried or face troubles with my boyfriend/girlfriend/work/husband/wife/etc". Another lie of the devil. Drinking is definitely not the solution to solving any stress and worries. You just get a hangover the next day and the cycle will continue on and on. Alcohol damages the liver and and can cause death (drink driving, etc.). Clubbing and raving, majority of the music you hear are all worshipping satanic forces. And the signs clubbers and ravers do are all worshipping satan (esp. all those photos you see of clubbers). Unfortunately, they have no idea what they are doing. I am thankful to God that I've stopped worshipping satanic and the forces of darkness:
Hand signals worshipping Satan

Now, I don't need alcohol to de-stress me. I give all my worries to God now. I do the praying, and trust that He takes care of all my worries be it big or small. If the worries are solved, I give all my thanks to God. If the worries are not solved, I still give thanks and it means God has his reason and other plans for me.
Word of God:
"Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you." (1 Peter 5:7)
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)
"Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus." (1 Thessalonians 5:18)3) Gambling addiction I used to buy lottery tickets, 4D, gambling in casinos, "mah kei", etc. Gamble on football, gamble on almost everything and anything possible!
4) Drug addictionI am thankful to God that I did not have to experience heroine and cocaine addiction like some cases you hear in the newspapers. But that doesn't mean bong and "fai cai" and ecstasy are not a drug. I used to be a social drug user, ie during raves and full moon parties.
5) Occult - FreemasonsI was previously indirectly involved with the Freemasons. I won't go into details. They say "A picture is worth a thousand words". Here's one:

http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...49415&sec=focushttp://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=...02342&sec=focusWow! I felt on top of the world back then, doing all the things of this world (and some that most people could only dream of)....until God came into my life. I woke up one day realising money, girls, fame, fortune and status, is not everything in this world. Yes I've done charity work before. I used to be involved with Leo Clubs, Circle-K (Kiwanis Down's Syndrome), etc. I felt my life was no longer fulfilling. Physically I felt fulfilled by the pleasures of this world. Spiritually I felt a total zero (Even though I do good works and deeds and help people out). Am I gonna wake up and live the rest of my life and die a life chasing and enjoying material wealth, girls, money, fame, fortune, power and status in this life? That same week, I went to church (April 15th, 2012) and accepted Christ as my Lord and Saviour. All my close friends were indeed culture-shocked. 180 degree life-changing. No more swear words coming out from my mouth, all the above bondages and more, etc. I feel peace and joy in my life now. Not afraid of dying anymore. Living a meaningful life. Why? Because I know the TRUTH.
I am really happy to be freed from all these bondages. I give thanks and all glory goes to God!!Word of God:
"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)"When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God." (Galatians 5: 19-21)
"But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another." (Galatians 5:22-26)Important:I am not a saint. All the above can happen to both believers and non-believers as well. Doesn't mean you are Christian that you are "protected" from all this. Temptations are always there till we die. It's how strong our walk with God which will enable us to flee from it. If you think you can withstand all the temptations with your own willpower and without God's help, Satan and the devil will prove you wrong.
Summary:1) God saved me from the darkness and bondages of this world.
2) We can make the most important decision of our life. The choice to believe or not to believe in Jesus Christ. Not even the decision of getting married, having kids, choosing your girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife is as important as this.
Word of God:
"For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life." (John 3:16)
"Go in through the narrow gate, because the gate to hell is wide and the road that leads to it is easy, and there are many who travel it. But the gate to life is narrow and the way that leads to it is hard, and there are few people who find it. (Matthew 7:13-14)
3) Please do also google the following below for further knowledge on the spiritual realm related to the above bondages (These spirits are very real! If you think it's a lie, you have a choice to continue living believing that it is a lie. I have already shared this. That is the best I can do):
- Incubus and Succubus Demons
- Jezebel Spirit
- Principalities and Powers
- Soul Ties
- Generational Curses
4) Nobody told me to share all this in here. Not my friends, not my family, not my pastor, nor my church. I just felt like sharing, coming sincerely from my heart on how God changed my life. And I'm not proud at all, but instead grateful and happy to share it. I speak humbly before God.
Thank you for reading. It is not by accident, coincidence or fate that you are reading this.
Everything mentioned in here has to be made cross-referenced with the Word of God. This is to discern from the truth and those not of the truth.
Dear God,
I pray that those whom are reading this that You will open their spiritual eyes. Word of God: "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32). And that by Your grace and mercy, you come into their lives and touch their heart and lives. I come humbly before you God in sharing the Good News and the Word of God. Anyone who understands from the sharing in here is not by my own doing or works. For all glory goes to you God!! Word of God: "For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires." (Hebrews 4:12). In Jesus most precious name I pray, Amen.Thanks and God bless you,
Allan
