My name is Aida Payton and this is my true story. Find out the true word of God inside this book based on my life experiences here in the United States of America and the Philippines. I am the person that never went to school or tutorial and yet Jesus himself taught me, the holy family, Angels and all saints. Find out Gods' or Jesus' name in more than 500 translations into different names. The reason I wrote this book is because a lot of people misinterpreted the word of God and use God's name for war. Example like for Christians and Muslims, killing each other for nothing I would say. I am going to correct this, the way God Jesus teaches me. We're supposed to treat each other like Brothers and Sisters, Uncles and Aunts, Niece and Nephews, Grand Father's and Grand Mother's. We are supposed to respect each other. We are not supposed to be fighting each other because of different religions or because we were raised differently. That is beyond God's Imaginations, so here I am, he sent me to deliver his message to all kinds of people in this world. That's why I have to write his name into different languages because we speak different languages. That's why we call God Jesus in different names. In my next Book I will write how People got deceived by bad spirit. I say this because it happened to me and because of God Almighty's Jesus Christ help, bad spirit no place in his Distractions. He can never win over me. We worship the same God in different names.
