Aaron Kim / Graduation Speech from Class 110

My name is Aaron Kim and I was a missionary working in Brazil, born into a 3rd generation pastor family. After becoming a missionary, I became very troubled. The fact that "I wasn’t guiding the sheep with the word" made me feel so guilty. The seminary I attended didn’t give me much knowledge, instead, I was just told, "No one can understand God’s will. We are not supposed to know."

But while I was going through this, my sister told me one day, “Aaron! I’m learning the Bible like I’ve never heard before." That was how I started learning the Revealed Theology at Zion Christian Mission Center. I felt my heart was shattered realizing everything I learned in seminary was, in fact, wrong, and that I myself was just someone teaching these lies to the people who trusted me."

I'd like to ask all the pastors around the world, "What kind of era do you think you are living in today according to the Bible?”, “Who are you according to the Bible?”, “Do you know if you are created according to the promise of the Bible?” If you do not know these things, you are only a person who belongs to the night, no different from a person who's dead, and a sinner who's been sowing the seeds of the devil while calling yourself a pastor of God.

I had a liver transplant when I was 6 years old. I was diagnosed with pediatric cancer when I was 9 years old. The life I was given was until the age of 21. My already limited life was full of pain one after another. My life was too miserable to acknowledge that there may be a God.

When I was 20 years old, I met a person who lost everything due to an unexpected incident, yet still believed in God and even do the work of God. Her testimony was able to slightly prick my icy cold heart. As I studied the Bible, I realized that it was not the will of God for us to live a life with pain and death. I was able to understand God's plan for us, who were to face death at the end of the day. I was able to check with my own eyes how the plans were prophesied in the Bible and how they are being fulfilled in reality.

When this word of truth became a realization to me, it became a source of my strength. It made me want to live, and it created a miracle by guiding me to be living "today" even after the age of 21. If this word is not the truth, then there is no God.

Patrick Chikaonda / Graduation Speech from Class 108-6

My hometown has been deprived of freedom and safety. Even when I and my siblings were high school students, it was very dangerous for us. We grew up in fear that we could be attacked or killed anytime. To protect my family and my country, I traveled a long distance to South Africa to find a way by all means to achieve peace and freedom. I studied and worked hard. The quality of life was far better, but as time went by, my heart became empty.

I prayed every night to seek God's heart and His will, but there was no way to find Him. However, after two friends of mine invited me to the same Bible study in the same year, I saw this as a sign from God. I joined the bible study, which I initially did not go to because I was busy with studying and work. I realized that it’s not only letters written on the page, but there is a living reality. It was only when I perceived the revealed Word that I could understand the true will of God. We can achieve the peace and freedom we have been searching for! I could achieve the dream that I had longed for all of my life. The dream that had seemed impossible. I can give peace to my family and also to my country through this Word!
