Testimony of Former Imperial Wizard of the KKK Joe Bednarsky now 'saved'
 
I have a myspace page (please dont hold that against me) :D

This is one of my new "friends" He is a former memeber, and national leader of the Klu Klux Klan.

I find his testimony very interesting, he has asked me to pray for him, so I have.

He has been asked to do some radio shows, which I find interesting since he has only been going to church since March. Here is his website:http://www.joebednarsky.com/

Anyway I thought it would be interesting to introduce his page to the board

You mean JEANIE!

it was just weird, I seldom really read their pages but for some reason I decided to read his.

I was floored to read about the Klu Klux Klan stuff.


He told me they are making threats against him and wanted me to pray for him.

I thought it was awesome to read where the Lord has brought this brother out of the darkness of hatred to the light of God's love. What a pity that some would want to distract the beauty of such a testimony by posting such an off color remark by insulting your husband, whether it was meant in jest or not!

The KKK is alive and well here in Tennessee!!

I dont know if you ever heard of myspace before, I know it gets a bad press, but the one thing is you get to do is correspond with people. So I have been able to minister to him a bit.
I am just floored by what he used to be and do-truly amazing.

As far a s the remark, some people just have an unique sense of humor.

I have visited myspace a few times to check out some friends pages there, but I have never gotten that involved. This particular man that you referred to on this thread impressed me with his testimony. I remembered as a child growing up in very segregated town in East Texas the influences of this particular hate group - the KKK. What a wonderful example of grace this man's testimony has become to those still in the grips of hate that this group has promoted.

Perhaps, I just didn't get the "unique" sense of humor displayed by this brother, because it seemed to take away or distract from the message of deliverance that Christ brought to this man so steeped in hatred. I supposed that I have grown a bit weary of there always being someone who preferred to cast stones instead of joining in the thanksgiving of a soul that was set free.

Thank you sister for sharing this man's story with us this evening.

May God bring you and your family unexpected joy on your journey.

Sincerely,

chosen
