Not sure how and why this popped on my suggestion list, but I am truly grateful that it did. Jesus found me, in a very dark place back in 2007. Haven’t stopped expressing how much I love Him! Hello Everyone!
I cried to hear Michael's testimony, We have a similar background, I was once the son of one of the biggest drug dealers of the Cali, Cartel. I thank the Lord so often for saving my life many times and Giving me the opportunity of Salvation.
@Henryk Czemierzewski Please read the book of Job ... SLOWLY and prayerfully. God has a perfect plan for you. I speak from experience with true devastation. Pray that God show you how He sees things. 💥💓🙏💓💥
Im not religious, but Michael leaves you feeling so inspired and positive after listening to him. Ive been following his story for many years and it is really joyful to hear him speak. Take care everyone.
Don't let the devil remind you of your guilt when God already forgiving. I shed tear and started to confess in the car. No more guilt and be God instrument from now on. Thx bro.
Michael Franzese, your testimony still speaks volumes. It reminds me of my own. My dad was a gang leader. During my age as a kid, my dad has been sentenced many years and as I growing up, I followed in his footsteps. For the first time I was sentenced, I met in prison face to face with my dad. But afterwards many years ago Jesus founds me in the same prison and my life was never the same again. But if dad and son met in prison as gang leaders, who is a good example for who? If Jesus can saved and transformed our lives, He can do it for anyone else, it doesn't matter what you have done. To God be the glory, Michael Franzese. Shalom.
An incredible story, an incredible life and an amazing transition. For 5 years I have heard the voice of God and for 5 years I have refused to commit my life, my heart and my future to God. 1 week ago something happened that has changed me forever. Last Sat God breathed life into me and I asked God to take me. Best decision I have ever made.
Michael, in my 26 years as a Christian, i have never, ever seen a man so full of God as you. It has nothing to do with who you were, but who you are now and how God has transformed your life. We all, at times, feel failed Christians, but you show us Gods grace and mercy is real and for all, no matter how we have lived our lives. You have an amazing ministry so may God bless!
I've been feeling down lately. My father died a few weeks ago n my gf told me I have 2 months to find a place to live bcuz shes tired of me. I'm not frm California n dont have family here except my kids. But listening to Mr Franseze I feel better n hopeful....
Take the red pill my brother. I don't if you're still with that girl but leave her. Anyone that threatens your livelihood is someone whom doesn't respect you. That's why I don't believe in cohabitation. Get your own, you may have to leave your kids but ask yourself is your dignity and self-respect worth it. You want your kids growing up to seeing their mother disrespect the father without him standing up for himself, it's a bad example. Get your own brother women don't have the ability to love you as we love them. Become a man, get your dignity back. Much respect brother, hope you are well.
God is great. I’ve struggled with terrible things I’ve done and God forgiving me. I’ve been saved and slipped back into sin. I want to regain my relationship with Jesus. I struggle with betraying God and Him not wanting me back because of things I’ve done and ignoring Gods will by back sliding. I desire our relationship again. My job and my family is really beating me down. I struggle with drugs and suicidal thoughts. I really struggle with addiction. I’ve known Jesus and really want to change. This has been a real inspiration.
Keep the lord in your heart. I relate to you because I struggle with drugs as well. They distract me from the lord. Pray pray pray. God is almighty. There is nothing he can’t do. We will be saved, and we will be cured of all of our addictions. But we must be willing to sacrifice and withstand the withdrawals and agony. We must get help so we can better serve the lord. And we can do that through God himself.
Jesus is with you. We all go thru terrible trials in our lives. Someone told me once that the closer you draw to Christ the more Satan tempts and deceives you. In your heart, Jesus still dwells, he has not abandoned you. Satan lies and makes you think Jesus is no longer with you but he is. Trust in Him. He knows you and loves you. I realize it’s a hard thing to accept, I have doubts too, but it’s true. Don’t let Satan destroy you you are a child of God. May God bless and comfort you in Jesus’s name.
The first time I heard Michael's testimony, I got up and kissed the crucifix I keep on my wall. Now I recognize how God has worked parallel in my life too. And was merciful to never give up and got me away from a toxic living situation. I hope other catholics can be inspired by Franseze's story :)
I’ve seen him on tv before talking about his life before this. I just happened upon this video and had no idea about his transformation. Of all people, this was very unexpected to me. What incredible, powerful testimony! GOB BLESS YOU Mr. Michael Franzese! It’s truly remarkable seeing our lord working in our lives. What a great example this man is of the LORDS Love and Forgiveness. Truly inspirational!
Seminaries ruin preachers, and are NOT biblical. They pump out graduates who read Vatican-inspired, "modern English" counterfeit bibles, and preach works salvation. Seminaries are devilish! They love to criticize God's pure, perfectly preserved word in the English Language, the King James Bible.
I have heard this brother tell his story in different outlets. One was a secular radio station where they just interviewed him about being an ex mob boss, and then hearing his personal testimony of how the Lord saved him. The testimony is the greater story. Jesus gets the glory!!
God's purpose is not same for everyone... Jesus loves the leaders...as He used Soul to turn Paul..we worship the high priest who use the most difficult person for His glory.. praise the Lord.. we are amazed by the workmanship of God in our life ...
Just watched Michaels dad’s story then his brothers. Sad story. But whatever Sonny was he was a much better dad than my own. Michael is a great speaker. I love this guy. Michael. I love this guy. Whenever he speaks I’m closer to Christ. Love you Michael.
He is a brilliant person ,,super smart . He made millions in the mob word and then saw the light and turned his brilliance to Gods business ...Thx Michael
Mike, I think you should admit to law enforcement the murders that you committed and let the chips fall where they may. You'll probably be in prison for the rest of your life but you'll have eternal life in christ right? 🙄
+mmacrazies89 A rat is someone who testifies against someone else. Michael never did that. Does he admit Cosa Nostra exists? Yes, but Joe Valachi was the one who let that cat out of the bag. Admitting Cosa Nostra exists today does no harm whatsoever.
What an interesting fellow. We don't experience this sort of motivational speaking in the UK. We have Ricky Gervais. 😁 I'm not religious but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate a charismatic, good looking chap telling us all how we should be living our lifes ....for the better 🙃
Do yo know why Jesus forgives the wicked? Because the men who wrote that fairy tale the bible were wicked. If i wrote a book today everyone would doubt it, but somehow something written hundreds of years ago is taken as the word of god. This man and his father and his friends caused pain for people. Franseze found a new racket, one that has never failed. Hes a good talker and thats it.
My job is a racket then. Ok. But it’s legal… As far as Jesus forgiving the wicked? Does the un-wicked thing need forgiveness? No. Further, the Bible if untrue still would not be a fairy tale. You really should work on your logic skills.
Probably the only Mafioso that lived to get out. He was smarter than any of his superiors. That alone could have got him whacked. So glad you are doing great, have faith in your life and are doing all the right things. My daughter Erin belongs to the Rock church and a similar thing happened. Keep on living the good life Michael!
If you open your heart, make sure you have a heart surgeon there with you. There's no way you'll survive long enough to close it back up if you try this alone. And if you are able to, your hands will be all shaking, you'll probably fumble the heart like a bar of soap in the shower, it will be a mess.
@@fredcuellar2221 wait, what are you exactly saying? Are you mocking him for wanting to want Jesus to enter his life, or are you saying he can’t do it alone, and you need to go to Church and talk to other people of Faith to truly let Jesus enter his heart? God is great.
I love this guy he is the real thing may God continue to bless his and I'm 💯 Jewish and my create is my savior and Torah is his word but I know that this guy is true in God bless to his
He’s saved. For sure he going to heaven. as long as you just have faith in Jesus that he paid for allllllll your sins past present and future and you will be saved. Nothing can pluck you out of his hands he said. Once a child always a child. Can’t lose your salvation once you believe the true Gospel
God said " dont feel guilty about what God has forgiven " thank you Michael
Not sure how and why this popped on my suggestion list, but I am truly grateful that it did. Jesus found me, in a very dark place back in 2007. Haven’t stopped expressing how much I love Him! Hello Everyone!
Awesome! The Lord saved me also! God is amazing!
He truly is!
Jesus didn’t find you. YOU found yourself through listening to your consciousness as Jesus did WHEN he was alive. Don’t be fooled
I cried to hear Michael's testimony, We have a similar background, I was once the son of one of the biggest drug dealers of the Cali, Cartel. I thank the Lord so often for saving my life many times and Giving me the opportunity of Salvation.
Alex Molano I'm thankful you got away from that. Too many people who grow up with that become carbon copies of what seems to be powerful
wow the infamous cali cartel from the narcos show!! awesome. but like im very happy youre out of that life
@Henryk Czemierzewski only thing that kills you is sin

Love this, he sounds like a preacher, amazing testimony. The Blood of Jesus 🩸 washes white as snow. Praise God!!!! To God be the Glory!!!!
Amen

Take care everyone.
Religion doesn't have anything to do with a message or Jesus. People confuse the 2.
@@Rubycella In other news, I still like Mike and feel better about things when I hear him.
So, im sure lots of people do.
@@Rubycella I am lots of people.
I will be praying for you James, Jesus loves you too.
Don't let the devil remind you of your guilt when God already forgiving. I shed tear and started to confess in the car. No more guilt and be God instrument from now on. Thx bro.

This man knows and speaks the Word. It doesn't take the seminary to make a great preacher. God bless him.

Powerful. Modern day Paul. You cannot limit Gods ability to restore a human being with the Good News.
What a mighty Man of God. What a powerful testimony. Look at God. God bless you Michael.

Wow I can't believe I was there......what a testimony!!!😊
With God all things are possible. Amen Amen
God is using this man. Oh Michael, keep up the good work. 0raise you Jesus.
FRANSLEASY AT CHURCH . WHAT A SERVICE AS HE REPEATS “ I’LL BE HONEST WITH YOU”. JUST GUARD ALL THE OFFERING PLATES .
WHAT JOKE THIS GUY IS “ I GOTTA BE HONEST WITH YOU”. EVERY OTHER SENTENCE STARTS WITH “ILL BE HONEST WITH YOU”. AND HE TALKS BEHIND YOUR BACK.
I find it Incredibly Beautiful how our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ takes All of us and Works Through us All for the Benefit of Others 🙂❤️✝️
Thanks Michael great testimony

Great to see the Grace of God in action! Thank You Jesus for the Grace and Mercy you show to us sinners!
Not a religious man but youre a mighty inspiration michael. Big love 😃
I wil pray for you Jack, Jesus loves you.
Jesus isn’t a religion ; he’s the son of god ; the light of this world; riding up on a young donkey ; bow down and give him thanks and praise
What an awesome testimony; what an awesome God we serve.
Very powerful Michael- thank you!!! God Bless You
