<\/a>Samiron was born and brought up in a Hindu family. He had worshipped idols since childhood, but he did not have peace in his mind. He believed in incarnation and he also learned in his childhood that avatars have come to protect the righteous and destroy sinners. All this information and knowledge terrified him and he began to believe that avatars would destroy him since he was not a righteous person. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nOne day a village church planter, Pastor Henry, came to visit his village and shared his testimony with Samiron. Henry also used to be an idol worshipper. His spiritual father changed his name from Hori (the name of an avatar) to Henry when he became a Christian.\u00a0 Henry came to know that Hori the avatar came to destroy sinners, but Jesus came to save sinners. Samiron was amazed and moved by his life testimony. Henry invited him to come to the church. When Samiron came, Henry was preaching from John 3:16. When Samiron heard that \u201c<\/span>God so loved the world that he gave his only and one Son Jesus to die for our sin…<\/span><\/i>.\u201d Samiron could not hold in his tears and he began to cry. He came to know that only Jesus can forgive his sins and provide eternal life. He also came to know that Jesus came to seek and save the lost. Samiron offered his life to Jesus and accepted him as his personal Savior and the Lord. A great burden was removed from Samiron\u2019s heart. He felt a great peace in his mind. He decided to follow Christ until his death. Now Samiron is a great evangelist and teacher. He shares his testimony with others. He has devoted himself to reading the bible and praying to God. His family members are not believers yet. He is praying that his parents would come to Christ someday<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n If you would like to help make a difference in the lives of people like Samiron, here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n
