Written by Beulah Williams in her own words:

To those who are lost & want to know Jesus

To the Unbeliever

I, Beulah Williams, in sound mind on this day of March 4, 1975. The time is 25 minutes of 2 O’clock. The Sun is shining brightly & it is a very cold day.

This is to all that will here & receive from Jesus my Lord & your Lord if you will let him be your Lord, & your God.

I became a believer in Jesus when I was twelve years old. This was the churches doctors that you couldn’t become a christian till you was twelve.

That day the spirit of the Lord moved upon my heart & I excepted the Lord as my Savior & was saved from sin. It change many habits in my life. But I couldn’t stay change because the devil was always tempting me to do something God had said not to do. So I was defeated most of the time. I would try to serve God for a while & then I would lived the worldly life for a while. This was the way I saw the normal christian living. But after about 38 years of this, something happen, I became sick with gallbladder trouble. I went in the hospital for surgery thinking everything was going to be alright. But the 7th day blood clot being to go through my heart & into my lungs & i being to hurt & spit up blood. Will I thought I was going to die severly times & the place I seemed to be going to seemed very dark. I knew I had sinned many times & I had not ask God to forgive me. So I got busy trying to confess my sins. But I didn’t know after I had confessed them that Jesus had forgiven me. So I confess over & over. Now I know the word says to believers in 1 JOhns 1:9 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful & just to forgive us our sins, & to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” I thought I had to do something for God to forgive me. But I found out you just except his forgiveness and he will show you what to do from there.

Now getting back to the time of darkness & confessing, my husband was holding my hand & praying with me. I was praying with my eyes open because I was afraid to close them. I didn’t think I would ever wake up. When a strange thing happen. There was a small cloud of smoke that settled between the wall & ceiling of my hospital room. I knew it was Jesus, I don’t know how but I just knew. Then a strange thing began to happen a love called agape begin to fill me. I knew it was Jesus, or the spirit of Jesus. It started at my head & down my neck & out my arms & on down through my body & continued to my feet. There was such a peace I was caught in such a restful place I didn’t want even to leave it. The love didn’t flow back out it just stopped being. I then knew that Jesus was real. I had no more questions about that. My life took on a change. I knew I was a new creature from then on. I wanted to tell every body about Jesus. I couldn’t be quiet about him. It took me a long time to get to where I could come home. But I knew some how I was going to make it. A spirit of fear & death had entered my being. And this fear would come upon me and I would think I was going to die. This went on for about a year. Then I was listen to Morris Cerulo & he told me what to do about it. The Bible says to resist the devil & he will flee from you & to quote scripture. I quoted 1 John 4:4 Greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. James 4:7; Luke 10:19; 2 Cor. 10:4.

So one night I was alone & this spirit came upon me. Si I started to resist the enemy & stood my ground & the fear left & I went off to sleep speaking in tongues. You see I didn’t know it then But this love that had filled my being was the baptism in the Holy Spirit that John talked about in the book of Acts. I began to learn about this Jesus that had saved my life. My lungs had been fused by the blood clots. The doctor had told me things would never change. But this same Jesus healed my lungs & my nerves. He removed 6 lumps from my breast & many other things. And of this day he is still healing me of other things. I found out he was the same Jesus that healed & delivered & cast out demons that was in the Bible. In 1 John 3:8 He came to destroy the works of the devil. I found out that diseases & sin, sickness, & demon possession were the work of the devil. This had been destroyed by Jesus.

After the Baptism in the Holy Spirit I begin to learn about spiritual thing both the things of satan & of God. I am learning to tell the difference.

I have said all of this that you might believe that Jesus is the Son of God & he did come in the flesh & dwell among man. And died for our sin that we might be saved. I know I will go to be with him on day. He loves the whole world. So don’t think he doesn’t love you. You may think you have done too many bad thing to be saved. But Jesus says though your sins be as scarlet as snow, So Jesus loves you & wants you as his child. So ask him to forgive you now & he will save you. Romans 10: 8,10 & John 3:16 tells you what to do just believe the word & confess it with your mouth then Jesus will become real in your life as he has in mine.

There are lots of books & tapes in my house that will help you to learn how to walk & live. Along with Bibles which is really all you need. Receive the Holy Spirit by faith & he will teach you & show you the things of Jesus.

P.S. Do not worship the beast or die. There will be no escape if you do.
