Thank you for the courses you gave us. It really helped me in my pastoral ministry. From the bottom of my heart I say thank you again. And the way you gave these courses is laudable.
May the love of God the Father, the peace of his Son Jesus Christ and the communion of the Holy Spirit be our sharing! Amen.

I was born around 1985 in Tékparou in Benin. In my state of childhood without Christ, I was guilty of nothing. So, in my opinion, I was living in innocence. Although my whole family practiced two different religions at the same time: Islam and fetishism. This until I am an adult. I lived in a state of naivety. In 1999, we were evangelized by the neighboring village. It was at that moment that I received Christ into my life. And it was Jesus Christ who broke my covenant with the Prince of this dark world. I accepted that Christ died because of my sins and rose again to give me life. Thus, I discovered my guilt before God. And I asked forgiveness of my sins. God has totally broken the yoke that the Devil has made me carry from my mother's womb and made me believe that I was born without sin. God has granted me forgiveness. So, the Lord has helped me by his inexhaustible grace. After my new birth, I received the Holy Spirit who dwells in me to this day. The Holy Spirit directs me and reassures me of my eternal salvation. The Lord has brought me out of Satan's captivity. He made me free from that day. He turned me into a new Mamoudou. He took me out of the prison of theft, lies, debauchery... that I practiced. Thus, God restored me. He has made me a joint-heir with the kingdom of heaven. He has called me to be his servant since 2016. I am free and full of hope for my eternal salvation. I am no longer afraid of anything in my life because I have fellowship with my Lord every day. His Word is a guide to me. I have a thirst to proclaim his gospel throughout the world without fear. Glory be to the Lord from eternity to eternity! Amen.

East and West, East and West, will never meet. I see here a powerful image of God's forgiveness: when He forgives our sin, He erases it and no longer even remembers it. That being said, there is no point in constantly dwelling on our own past mistakes; since He has cleared our criminal record. We must live and act like a new creation. If I/we want to follow the Lord, we must also follow His example, forgiving without remembering the faults of our transgressors.
May the love of God the Father, the peace of his Son Jesus Christ and the communion of the Holy Spirit be our sharing! Amen.
