Doreen's account of her vision in her book "The Joy of Jesus"

The light radiating from his heart was shining toward everyone, not just toward me. It was so profound and otherworldly. I’d never seen any lights like that before. The rays were bright beyond anything in this world.

During the time I was seeing and experiencing Jesus’ presence, I went from merely believing in him, to knowing his reality. I felt this sensation of Jesus being crucified with the crushing weight of the world’s sins upon him while he suffered on the cross. I gasped as I realized that Jesus had absorbed all of our sins!

Any doubts I had about the Gospel descriptions of Jesus vanished right then. This was Jesus of Nazareth. He knew who I was. He knows who you are. He knows us all.

In my experience, it became clear that Jesus is the Son of God, part of the Holy Trinity. Remember that prior to this experience, I revered Jesus as an “ascended master.” Yet in that moment of seeing him, I knew that Jesus is Lord.

I also had the realization that I could no longer be in the new age world. I’d been trying to walk in both worlds, and seeing Jesus instantly changed this. I knew that my new age followers would be upset, but what choice did I have but to publicly declare that I was now one-hundred percent following Jesus? I had no choice, nor did I want another choice.

Most of all, I fell head-over-heels in love with Jesus that day. I was willing to do whatever it took to be with him. My seeking was now over, because Jesus fulfilled my longing for great love. I couldn’t wait to see him again, and spend eternity in paradise with him.

And then I lost sight of him. He vanished. I couldn’t see him any longer, but I was still reveling in the waves of those light rays from his heart.

I was spent and speechless (which is rare for me). I don’t recall the rest of the church service, or anything about how I got home.

The experience was beyond real. It was Him. How did I know for sure it was the real Jesus, and not a false apparition from the enemy? (After all, demons do disguise themselves as Jesus, Mary, and angels).

Some people say that any vision is from the devil. Yet, The Book of Acts in the Bible describes how Saul saw a vision of Jesus that led to his conversion.

“You shall know them by their fruits,” Jesus teaches us in Matthew 7:16 (KJV).

The fruits of my experience showed me that I genuinely saw a vision of Jesus of Nazareth. I began reading and studying the entire Bible, beginning with Genesis 1. And for the first time in my life, I kept going until I finished the Book of Revelation.

• I got baptized for the first time on February 25, 2017. After meeting Jesus, I couldn’t wait to be baptized! My childhood church (Unity) didn’t baptize children, and I’d never before considered getting baptized. Yet after seeing Jesus, getting baptized seemed like the most important action I could take.

• My focus became more about helping other people. I shifted from self-centeredness toward selfless service. I started doing volunteer work, and became more caring toward other people.

• I repented for my past errors, and prayed for God to forgive me.

• With the Holy Spirit’s direction, I cleaned out anything from my home and office that could be an idol
