Written by Steve Long, a contemporary writer.
The first time that I encountered God through the Holy Spirit, I was at a Billy Graham crusade in Toronto. I was sitting at the top of the bleachers at Exhibition Stadium where the Blue Jay baseball team play. Billy Graham, he’s giving the altar call for people to give their lives to Jesus. I’m already a follower of Jesus, I’m there to watch and to see what he is doing and how is he doing it. At some point in his invitation of calling people to the front… he said, “Holy Spirit, will you convict people of their sin.” From near the top of the bleachers, I saw a wave of emotion hit people and go up the bleacher stands and come towards me. Row after row, they just begin to weep. People would get out of their seats and head to the front, run to the front, and I remember watching this phenomenon come towards me, and hit my row, and go behind me. It was like, ‘Woah!’
Therefore, whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven [Matthew 10:32]
