This book is designed to teach you about the real existence of the true and only living God. However, due to much confusion in the world, people tend to confuse religion with different gods. I discovered the true existence and the powerful force of the true living God, Jesus Christ, in my life. I believed in a different god before. I also prayed to different virgins and saints as well, but I did not obtain any results. One day, I found myself at a dead end with the only living God, Jesus Christ, showing me His mighty resurrection power when I lost my life in a hospital bed. I decided to author this book, Death Saved by Jesus Christ, to explain how powerful and merciful Jesus Christ has been with me. This book is based on a true story, and I am convinced that many people will completely understand who Jesus Christ, the true living God, is. The main purpose for this book is for people to restore the broken relationship between humanity and God. With the deepest gratitude to the Lord, I want to explain to you how Jesus Christ saved my life, not only from spiritual death but physical as well. As a spiritual-healer author, the main idea is to help you to engage with this book, I want it to touch your heart and help you to heal your spiritual emotions that you endured so that you can obtain the spiritual freedom your inner being needs.
