The life-changing night of 36 years ago eventually brought surprising confirmations of the event by using my birthday and first address numbers: 22 and 212. Moreover, their occasional ‘God-incidental’ appearance in timings of items coming to my attention has rapidly increased over the past couple of years, as noted in my postings. Now to return to my testimony:
Quite some time was needed to gain a full understanding of that awesome Visitation and my being confronted by the absolute holiness of the Lord Jesus Christ. No wonder I was intensely convicted and suddenly knew personal judgement definitely IS TRUE! As mentioned, I fully expected to take my last breath there and then and be dropped down into Hell.
‘…but mercy (full of glad confidence) exults victoriously over judgement’ – James 2:13 (The Amplified Bible)
A few years later I heard the scripture, “mercy triumphs over judgement” – yes indeed it does and thank you for being so gracious to me, my Lord. May it be similarly so for the multitudes who don’t yet know You.
That life-changing encounter used two personally intimate aspects of my life, unknown to any living soul, to grab my undivided attention and thereby validate the experience as being real, not at all imaginary.
Even more amazingly, both validations are directly related to the 1st and 2nd Advents! Thus, they could not but enhance my interest in End-Times that had begun only a few years earlier when reading The Invisible Hand (as described herein). Yet it took me 30 years for it to dawn upon me that when that happened I’d been given the first two pieces of an ‘invisible jigsaw’!!!
The First Advent was when Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem of Judea about two thousand years ago. Hence, the four weeks leading into Christmas are designated within the church calendar as Advent, and which start the church year. The Second Advent is coming soon and is expected to begin in the city of Jerusalem.
FIRST VALIDATION
I inwardly ‘knew’ that heavenly visitor was indeed Jesus Christ himself, and that His impressive swift descent was a foretaste of His promised return in all His glory.
The event reminded me of my favourite picture in mother’s Missal, or service book of the Roman Mass. This gave the scriptures for Sunday services throughout the year together with a picture symbolising the theme for each service. As a boy very keen on astronomy I’d been fascinated by the picture for the First Sunday in Advent. It depicted Jesus standing on the clouds over a burning earth in the midst of sun, moon and falling stars, telling of events before his Second Advent!
The validation mentioned above came almost as unusually.
At a healing retreat six years later (1995), one of the ministry prayer-team said God would show me something after lunch. Indeed He did, for a lady who’d been sitting at my table later confided whilst we were walking, that the Lord had told her to show me something she greatly treasured, as below:
It was a photo taken from an aircraft over a thunderstorm. When developed, the photo bore an image of Jesus Christ as though standing within the clouds. But the facial features were hazy; exactly like Jesus in my dream because I’d not seen His face!! (I seem to recall hazy clouds at the foot of the image. This one shown is published by Bible Probe.)

BACKGROUND:
OCTOBER 2022
Maybe the most appalling of the dozen cases is that former head of Met Police Federation Rick Prior banned from running for election!
One would think police officers’ offensive activities are contrary to their Oath of Office in swearing allegiance to the Crown? Having become meaningless it is utterly irrelevant!!
