His Testimony
Bishop Jefferson endured numerous hardships, growing up in an impoverished household in Dallas, Texas. The hard-knock streets became an escape from a frenzied household and an abusive father. At the age of 25, he was rushed to the hospital after suffering a serious reaction to penicillin. Unable to revive him, the emergency room physicians pronounced him dead. In these vague moments, Bishop could hear the voice of the hospital staff in the room but greater than them; he heard the voice of the Lord speaking to him. God took him on a journey to the gates of hell, where he saw people wailing and screaming in the lake of fire. It was clear through his journey that this was the destination for his life- if he did not change. Bishop, with great remorse for his actions, told the Lord the truth and through grace was given another opportunity at life. This pivotal experience was life-changing and led to a complete transformation in Bishop Jefferson’s future pursuits and perspective.
