The following story is about what the blood of Jesus can do to a sinner, one damned to die. My name is James Lantern born again 25 years ago.Jesus removed the veil from my eyes close to five years ago . It’s a story of the gospel, that Jesus came to save sinners. He came for them.I'm the seal of his workmanship by grace lest i boast.

My story is Inspired by the demoniac, when he was set free by Jesus, he was told to go back to his home town and tell them what Jesus has done for him.

Also the Samaritan woman echoes my very calling. Jesus is the main star in this script. It’s not really about a man, it’s a type, a revelation of God’s mercy through his Son Jesus.It’s the ol’ adage truth that Jesus came for the sick, the deprived, the downcast ,to save one under a curse about.

For the law brought all manner of sin in me, because apart from the law there is no knowledge of sin. Yet the law was a custodian until when the grace was to be revealed.

The law here is the church where i attended. The savior is Jesus Christ, He is the begotten son of God,the Man.He is indeed the author, I’m just a vessel leaking His majesty's will,a type in the story. I’m His penmanship brought up, raised up for this very purpose.

Earlier close to five years ago, i was in a tough spot. Meaning I was in a cyros moment.I was defeated by religion ,because it didn't buy me.Hence in this weakness i died to the known as i recieved the abundance of grace and gift of righteousnes.Roamns5:17

Back to the story, i asked God
" Father all these years i have laboured in your vineyard ,which of these sins are you punishing me for?".I saw my very life in that moment.God asked me" Do you believe that i have called you to preach?"i said" no ".That’s when the word happened ,that's how I received God's unmerited, unearned, undeserved favor.

Exactly 8 months later I decided to shout it out. I was in my room at that moment living then in Githurai 45, to be precise.Things were not going the way I would wanted them to. Something I was involved in hit a snag.The soap business of the church I was in ,where i attended, (where i base most of the revelations that i recieved through religion).Well , since God loves me as stated in 1 John 4;10, I had to let go and embraced God’s flow. I ended up giving glory to God. 

God is good towards me, the same as He is towards anybody else.Knowing this in my part is a gift. It is by his Mercy that I live breath and have my being.A gift that I’m forever greatful for, hence this book.

His mercy leads me. God’s has graced me alot not because I’m special, but because I’m the weakest and frailest.Through Jesus Christ, i have been empowered to bear lots of fruits,not only for my pleasure but to build up the kingdom of Almighty God .

I have nothing but glory for Jesus. I love to write lyrics,I’m an inspired linguist ,a gift I take not for granted. I like to read literature and novels(mmh! fiction aren’t they?).I love to write literature,take photographs ,ride my bike,shoot short films .I like to make people laugh in a childish kind of way.I’m sure my buddies can attest to this. Galatians3:13,is a key verse to me that we have been delivered from the curse of the law.Also my Deep anchor is Deuteronomy 6:10-12,about everything bring free to whomsoever believeth.

35 years have passed since my mother gave birth to me, and i recieved christ 25 years ago. It has been a tough first 30 years,i’m now 35. This is my story as to how i got to this place,where i recieved the gift of no condemnation as stated in Romans 8:1. A gift that’s unmerritted, lest I boast. 

The revelation that Jesus loves me unconditionally as stated in 1 John chapter 4: 10,and the abundance of Grace .

This also is a privilege, believing in His finished work at the cross and not my own works lest i boast. Notice I’m always pointing back to the cross .It’s an unconscious move regarding the victory in this book.

As I begin in this finished work, led by the holy spirit , may the name of the lord be praised.My writing is an oration.This is a gift described in the 1 corinthians chapter12 . I’m called to the market place, but in my case to write ,like Stephen in Acts. A fellow disciple in the early church who was chosen and given the mandate of waiting on tables, hence taking the miraculous to the market place. This is clearly described in Acts chapter 6 :4.

This story is my past ,present and future.A finished a work. Oh! i’m also a story teller. I’m in my room, as i look towards immortallity.I go back,way back to when I was a small boy being taken by my mum to nursery school in 1988. I can smell the scent of beans being cooked, i was only four.I had a green apron which acted as uniform. The school was
