Daniel G. Ochoa

Daniel Ochoa’s life took a significant turn in his early thirties. For the first three decades, he believed in God, he believed in Jesus and he believed that Jesus died on the cross for his sins, but his belief in God was a God that he had constructed in his head to rationalize his life style, assuming that he was in good standing with God. He also believed that God was much like Santa Clause, if he never commits a heinous offense that would make headline news, he would remain in good standing. However, when he encountered the true God of the Bible, everything changed. Devoting the following thirty years to diligent scriptural study, Daniel quickly realized that the God he had concocted in his mind differed from the God revealed in the Bible. This revelation ignited a deep passion within him to spread the Gospel. Over the years of sharing his faith, Daniel discovered that many people, like his former self, believed they were in a good standing with God when, in reality, they were not. This realization further fueled his desire to enlighten others about the truth of God’s nature and what it truly means to be an authentic follower of Christ In the past six years, Daniel’s passion has shifted towards eschatology—the study of the end times—which has convinced him that our generation has the privilege of witnessing the return of Christ. This intensified passion has only amplified his determination to proclaim the truth about God and shed light on the essence of genuine discipleship. “In Christ, only because of His Amazing Grace.”
