And they overcame him (satan) by the blood of the Lamb (Jesus) and by the word of their testimony  - Revelation 12:11

In their late 20's John and his wife walked away from Church and Jesus for 30 years, but God our Father never stopped loving them, Jesus our Lord and Savior never stopped seeking them, and the Holy Spirit never stopped speaking to them
 
The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not wiling that any should perish but that all should come to repentance - 2 Peter 3:9
 
One night God in a vision exposed John to the true darkness of hell and in the middle of the night John awoke in a cold sweat and cried out, "Help me Jesus!"
 
But when he was still a long way off, his Father saw (heard) him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him - Luke 15:20
 
And instantly John saw the Holy Spirit standing rock solid with arms folded across His chest protecting John from the evils of hell and Jesus spoke these words -
 
"I am able to keep you from stumbling, My greatest joy is to present you faultless to My Father at the end of your earthly journey - Jude 24
 
And from that moment forward John proclaimed Jesus as his Lord, his Savior, and his Best Friend and continues today and every day to serve Him faithfully
 
If you had known  the teenage Robert you would have had a hard time ever believing that he was a Christian and one day as an adult would be involved in Men's Ministry, a born again Spirit filled lover of Jesus Christ
 
Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up - James 4:10 
 
One day after a Sunday afternoon round of golf that was filled with multiple "GD's" and "JC's" Robert asked his Dad, "Why do we even bother going to Church," to which his father replied, "That is what all the people in this town (Small town North Carolina in 1958) do, so that is what we do!"
 
Fast forward to Spring 1992 in Houston, Texas and Robert is on his way to see one of his major customer's, "oldies but goodies" are blasting on the car radio, Robert is singing, not a care in the world, and suddenly on the radio a voice asks, "do you drink excessive amounts of alcohol," "are you constantly angry," "do you have relationship issues," to which Robert replied, "yes," "yes," and "Hell Yes!" And the voice on the radio continued, "On sale at "K Mart" a #1 Best Seller - "The Answer!" And as Robert pulled to a stop at the light at the intersection of 1960 and Kyrkendahl, Robert looked to his left and there was a "K Mart" and Robert turned left into the K Mart parking lot
 
"And I (Jesus) will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper (the Holy Spirit), that He may abide with you forever" - John 14:16
 
It was 10:00 AM on a Tuesday morning as Robert entered K Mart on a mission to find "The Answer!" The store was relatively empty and Robert spotted a young man stocking shelves and asked, "I am looking for a book you have called "The Answer," to which the young man replied, "Man, I have no clue, but Miss Betty over there, she knows everything."
 
Robert walked over to Miss Betty and asked the same question, "I am looking for book you have called "The Answer," and Miss Betty replied, "Why honey that's the Bible," and handed Robert "The Answer!"
 
"However, when He, the Spirit of Truth, has come, He will guide you into all Truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come" - John 16:13
 
It was 2 more years before Robert fell head over heels in love with Jesus, but the Holy Spirit had hooked him and Robert was headed God's way
