Learn to Sing This Song for the Antichrist’s Great Tribulation [Video]

by

The true story behind the famous Christian song, “I have decided to follow Jesus.”

It tells the story of a family in the Garo tribe from Meghalaya, then called Assam in India, who faced persecution just because of their faith in Jesus Christ. The lyrics are based on the last words of a Garo tribesman.

No turning back, no turning back

[Tag]

And all I have to bring
I will give to you my everything…

A Note on the Upcoming Rapture Debate between Gary DeMar and Kent Hovind
