Goes from drugs to a cult…make no mistake…like Scientology….Jim Jones…The Pope….every denomination in the world….one big cult that takes your money….your children….your possessions…your life…your dignity….your free will and choice and freedom…..much like trump and the republican party……..you religious folks are just plain losers and pretty much moral less…doing anything you want in life with no consequences because you think praying to a guy nailed to a chunk of wood absolves you of all responsibility….you are in a cult….praise jesup.
I LOVE the John Schlitt "PETRA" story! The third phase of PETRA singer! He like I.. The 2nd tie that I Tried Cocaine, I "LOVED IT SO MUCH" I Aaid to Myself "Never Again!" YES I "REALLY REALLY" Loved IT! I Have NOT touched it since 21, I am 50 YO now! IYearn towards the feeling a little bit, But I have Not touched it! Is the High Awesome? = YES Absolutely!! Will It Destroy = YES Indeed! I saw it! = STAY Away from Any of these kinds of Drugs, They WILL Only drag you down.. And down and ETC...
Beloved, do you know the Lord Jesus Christ? Jesus is the Word of God, who became flesh. He lived a perfect, sinless life, then He died on the cross for our sins. On the third day, Father God resurrected Him; He rose from the dead; and now He is alive, and He sits at the Father God's right hand. He is the one and only true living God; there's no other, apart from Him. He loves us; He created us! He is not the God of religion, He is the God of a personal relationship! He desires a close relationship with us. He said in John 14:6, "Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.' No one can come to heaven except through Jesus! Therefore, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior today, if you haven't done it yet! Repent of your sins, and ask Him to forgive you, cleanse you, and make you a new creation in Jesus Christ! Then invite Him into your heart, and into your life. Talk to Him and acknowledge Him on daily basis; run to Him in your distress, and He'll give you rest! Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Beloved people, tomorrow is promised to none of us; and without Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we won't have an eternal life in heaven. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and His sacrifice on the cross today; do not wait another minute! John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. ua-cam.com/video/TaKBTVpBw3g/v-deo.html
Petra is the kinda of band I want to be a part of!!! Y thank you John and all the band members of petra for making awesome music with an even better message!!
The band was.playing at the DuQuoin State Fair for the 100th Anniversary and they played there. So cool....did not get to stay but I hope you come back to Southern Illinois!
A friend gave a cassette of Petra to me in 1990. Ive been a fan ever since. Now my husband and myself are fans of the group. I was single when my friend gave me the cassette. ☺.
Not everyone is that lucky. I grew up in a Christian home and I still struggle daily. I believe I am saved but I never had a defining moment and my life is a train wreck. I wish him well.
He talks about Jesus all the time, so I'm not sure why you think he doesn't say the name of Jesus. And he's right God did shed His blood for all of us, unless you don't believe that Jesus is God.
🛑🛑🛑 i’ll never forget when I was younger in the 80s 70s whatever it was I found Jesus through petra was my favorite oh God in heaven use these people like you used them for me on fire for you in Jesus precious name amen there is no truth in this dark evil world EXCEPT the word of God
This is so awesome!! I’m 61. The first Christian song I heard was Clean. I was hiking around Stone Mountain Ga with a youth group. I have every Petra album. The scripture in the songs has been a lead for my life.
Need to go watch some videos from Petra I got to meet John and Petra in the 90's while working at the Ohio Center in Columbus Ohio as a usher and tiçket taker and I was going to take the elevator up stairs to the arena and John was getting off the elevator and I said hey John glad your here cause I was sick of the country and western bands or rock and roll bands because of the people who were causing me and my friends trouble and I can't remember what he said but God I was so happy for them to be there cause their concerts were awesome . I loved them
An INCREDIBLE story of REDEMPTION ! I remember this song so well. When it came out I was also doing a lot of Cocain. It was all about Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll ! It took me a lot longer to get straight, but I too was saved by Jesus Christ. Through my wife ! Praise God !😍
I learned the Word through Petra's lyrics as a teenager. When it came time for a harvest in my heart, it was like the field of dreams due to all the seeds already there. Thank you.
Great testimony. John also performs with the Jay Sekulow Band. They have plenty of great videos right here on UA-cam for anyone who is interested. God bless.
Jonny , Jonny John, you have made Christ Jesus so very proud. So very happy throughout the years. May the Father continue to bless your Family within all that is and all that surrounds you.

Sounds like you need help yourself. Sad on your part.

John Schlitt changed my life. Petra's No Doubt (especially the title track) saved me from ending it all many times.
Surprise petras back.❤❤❤ Amen!!!!!
A friend gave a cassette of Petra to me in 1990. Ive been a fan ever since. Now my husband and myself are fans of the group. I was single when my friend gave me the cassette. ☺.
I saw Petra at Dodge City, KS
Wow, that is powerful, I admire this man John
Amen.
Unlike Amy Grant who used the addiction of her husband as an excuse to bail on him...this guy has a REAL Christian wife!
Not everyone is that lucky. I grew up in a Christian home and I still struggle daily. I believe I am saved but I never had a defining moment and my life is a train wreck. I wish him well.
Amen 🙏I never know what happened to Head East or John. Thanks 😄

Kind of sad then his testimony at the end he couldn’t say the name of Jesus I pray that someday he can
He talks about Jesus all the time, so I'm not sure why you think he doesn't say the name of Jesus. And he's right God did shed His blood for all of us, unless you don't believe that Jesus is God.

GLORY to GOD. He is the truth the life and the way. Soo happy for you Brother.

This is so awesome!! I’m 61. The first Christian song I heard was Clean. I was hiking around Stone Mountain Ga with a youth group. I have every Petra album. The scripture in the songs has been a lead for my life.
Used to go to church with him. Incredibly nice man and his wife is very nice too.
Need to go watch some videos from Petra I got to meet John and Petra in the 90's while working at the Ohio Center in Columbus Ohio as a usher and tiçket taker and I was going to take the elevator up stairs to the arena and John was getting off the elevator and I said hey John glad your here cause I was sick of the country and western bands or rock and roll bands because of the people who were causing me and my friends trouble and I can't remember what he said but God I was so happy for them to be there cause their concerts were awesome .

Petra playing in Dallas August 18, 2023! Not sure what the lineup will be.
I learned the Word through Petra's lyrics as a teenager. When it came time for a harvest in my heart, it was like the field of dreams due to all the seeds already there. Thank you.
Always loved Head East. Glad John is a survivor!!
Amen 🙏 Amen
The devil didn't win 🙏
God is good/all the time
This is almost like a Saul to Paul type of conversion 👏🏻 👏🏻
Petra Stryper etc. was the stuff that drew me in back in 1986. I opened my Bible and here I am still. Thanks John Schlitt
Great testimony. John also performs with the Jay Sekulow Band. They have plenty of great videos right here on UA-cam for anyone who is interested. God bless.
May God be with them always!❤️💖
Jonny , Jonny John, you have made Christ Jesus so very proud. So very happy throughout the years. May the Father continue to bless your Family within all that is and all that surrounds you.
Amen brother !
