Before I accepted the Lord, nothing went well with me. I tried to make money, but it only resulted in only a huge amount of debt for me.

I thought things might go well if I went to church and asked my sister living in Seoul to let me know about a church. In April 2003, I started attending Pohang Manmin Church.

A few years ago, a broadcaster had given a false report on Manmin Central Church, so some people tried to stop me from going. But my sister, who was attending another church, said that she had been to Manmin Central Church several times. She stated Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee is a good pastor and the church was experiencing revival despite the false report. She advised me not to worry about it.

Afterwards, Dr. Lee appeared in my dream and held my sister's hands and said thanks to her. I listened to his sermons, and his trustworthy deeds moved my heart. I also believed in Heaven and Hell because his powerful works proved it. I began to pray for my family members' salvation.

I prayed and tried to evangelize them for seven years, but no one came. I kept trying to be renewed, however, because I learned from Senior Pastor that I should live in the Light to evangelize others.

In 2010, I began working in Lime Insurance Corp. and received so much blessing that I could give one thousand dollars for a tithe. The changes in me and the blessings that I received changed my family's view of me. My wife even had a dream where Senior Pastor appeared. She felt the love of God and totally changed.

In the dream, she was crying. Senior Pastor approached her and told her to cry as much as she wanted. He put white linen cloth on her head and watched her. She began to change in the Lord afterwards and evangelized other family members and relatives. After Senior Pastor prayed for my family's evangelization, my parents, my brothers' family, and my sister-in-law's family were all evangelized.

Not long after my father attended church he stopped conducting ancestral rites and threw all related tools and furniture away. And he led my brother to church.

My brother, Jungku Kim, stopped smoking right after he attended church and received healing of his panic disorder. He had to go to hospital every three months and take medicine due to hepatitis B but he was healed of it and became healthy.

His wife had a stomach problem and could not eat well but she was healed of it. She has now come to eat well. My mother was healed of heart disease and chronic dermatitis and athlete's foot. And my wife was healed of back pain, and my son Dabin was also healed of his sprained ankle.

My wife's family also received blessings of healing and renewal. My mother-in-law was healed of herniated lumbar disc, my brother-in-law was healed of lumbar canal stenosis and severe athlete's foot and my wife's sister was healed of pain in her wrists and back, and his son Jungheon stopped playing computer games after he had a dream in which spiders came out from his head. Now he is a good student and attends church regularly. My wife's sister's eldest son Sanghyuk was healed of sinus infection and received good eyesight. He used to doze off during the service, but after he felt the shepherd's love he changed. He stopped playing computer games and sat in front seats during service. Testimonies have overflowed in my family.

Above all, I am so thankful to God that my family members and relatives all have hope for New Jerusalem and happily live in unity in the Lord.
