| Man Says Jesus Saved His Life | |

| You heard about the church van that had a truck run into it? | |
| Three of the seven people in the van were killed; and one | |
| survivor says Jesus saved his life. From Christian Post | |
| http://www.christianpost.com/news/man-who-survived-church-van-crash-that-killed… | |
| A man who survived a terrifying van crash that killed three | |
| members of a Brooklyn church in Ellenville, New York, Sunday, | |
| has hailed Jesus for saving his life. | |
| Brooklyn resident Ariel Regis, 35, was one of seven passengers | |
| riding in a van on an Ulster County highway Sunday morning when | |
| it was tragically hit by a tractor-trailer. | |
| "We went through a terrible accident," said Regis, according to | |
| the New York Daily News. "Jesus just saved my life." | |
| Three passengers identified by police as Miguel St Louis, 17, of | |
| Brooklyn, Ricadeau Anantua, 33, of Freeport, and Garry Edouard, | |
| 48, of Wyandanch were killed in the accident. | |
| Two others, including the driver of the van Guepson Gue, 61, of | |
| Brooklyn and another passenger, Mario Esteverne Sr., 59, of | |
| North Elmont were airlifted to Westchester Medical Center where | |
| they are both in stable condition. | |
| So what is he saying? Jesus killed the other three, or didn't | |
| care enough about them to save them? | |
| Johnson Cesar, who is a former pastor at Bethseda French | |
| Seventh-day Adventist Church, spoke about the tragedy in an | |
| interview with The Christian Post on Monday. Pierre Metellus, | |
| who's the current pastor at the church, could not be reached for | |
| comment. | |
| "I'm very sorry that that happened, but the only thing that I | |
| know, as a Christian, is that even those unfortunate | |
| circumstances, God has control over them � so we still have | |
| faith in Him and knowing that one day this too shall pass," | |
| Cesar told CP. | |
| On Sunday worshippers gathered at the church to mourn the loss | |
| of their fellow congregants. | |
| Here a former pastor repeats the same idea. God is in control | |
| of everything, so it must have been God's Will that this tragic | |
| accident occurred and three passengers died. Do all Seventh | |
| Adventists think like this? I don't know. | |
| It's ironic, isn't it, that a Seventh Day Adventist church had | |
| people in it on a Sunday? I was wondering if they thought | |
| maybe that also part of God's plan? Could God be killing | |
| people in their church to get others into the church on | |
| Sundays? Just wondering. | |
