Ever so often I have heard about the Christian testimony of renowned serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. I never observed any evidence of this until a brother shared the following video with me this week. Just as we witnessed in the testimony of another serial killer, David Berkowitz aka “Son of Sam”, we witness the power of God unto salvation in even the most evil men such as Dahmer.
Dahmer unapologetically affirms the Lordship of Jesus Christ in this interview. He cannot possibly have any agenda as there was no benefit for him doing so (at least no benefit in the physical realm). No possible agenda except to make a proclamation of truth and testify to the inherent evil and deception of the theory of evolution.
Watch and read closely how Dahmer explains the implications of believing such a lie. Suppressing the truth of the Creator leads to the devaluation of life as there is no point in life if we all came from the primordial goo. It would matter not if women (or men) were raped, children were molested (or eaten), or men (or boys) were beaten, tortured, and murdered.
Jeffrey Dahmer was the product of humanism, Atheism, and evolutionary theory. They are all lies from the pit of hell. He represented the logical conclusion of humanism and Atheism, just as did his infamous co-villains Hitler, Mao, and Stalin.
Read and watch Dahmer’s testimony:
Thanks to you [dad] for sending that creation/science material because I always believed the lie that evolution is truth, that the theory of evolution is truth, that we all just came from the slime, and when we died, you know, that was it, there was nothing. So, the whole theory cheapens life, and I started reading books that show how evolution is just a complete lie. There’s no basis in science to to uphold it, and I’ve since come to believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the true Creator of the heavens and the earth. It didn’t just happen, and I have accepted Him as my personal Lord and Savior, and I believe that I as well as everyone else will be accountable to Him
…if a person doesn’t think that there is a God to be accountable to, then what’s the point of trying to modify your behavior, to keep it within acceptable ranges, that’s how I thought anyway. I’ve since come to believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is truly God. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit – they are the only true God.
Yet, it is not just these men who are deserving of God’s Wrath. Even you, the reader, deserve nothing but Holy Justice from a Righteous Judge. You may have never physically killed someone before, but you have murdered someone in your heart with your hatred. Good people do not go to heaven, dear reader. Only bad people go to heaven.
Not only is Jeffrey Dahmer an example of how evil a person can become, he is also an example that no sinner is outside the grace and mercy of a loving God. If God saves people like Dahmer, He can save a person like you – that is, if you are not a good person. If you’d like to learn more about this perhaps foreign concept, please continue reading to Eternal Life.

Thanks for sharing this Justin. Evolution keeps coming up almost every time we witness nowadays. Such a lie from hell that destroys lives.

You’re welcome, brother – I think this story will help in our evangelism efforts to show the foolishness of evolution.

It isn’t the confronting of evolution that saves sinners, it is the sovereign movement of the Spirit that convicts the heart and leads to Christ. In fact, it is conceiveable that sinners can believe in a Creator, reject evolution, and still wind up in eternal punishment.
I believe Dahmer was saved, however it was not because because he rejected evolution, although it is evident God used that as a door, but he was saved because he trusted in the only way to eternal life, the true and Risen Christ!
The New Testament deals very sparingly with evolution or other scientific issues, but we must never sway from the power of the Spirit through the gospel of Jesus Christ. Personally, I was a theistic evolutionist for the first few years after I was saved. But had rejecting evolution been a prequistite for believing on Christ, I may have tuned it all out.
But God uses almost everything to draw sinners to Christ.

I agree, Rick. There are and will be, no doubt, many creationists in hell because they professed Christ but walked as enemies of the cross.

Wow, what an amazing video — I didn’t know that sending creation science matierial would have such an important effect in changing this person’s mind to believe in God. I love creation science, and so this really encourages me to send this material out — because evolution does taint people’s beliefs in fundamental ways. Praise God that this man’s father sent him this stuff and he turned 180 degrees to believing in Jesus Christ — praise God for that!

Watch debates with James White and atheists. I think one was with Dan Barker. The atheist has to use arguments for God to try and prove there is no God. In one instance the atheist proclaimed that in order to see evidence there is no God, just look at the suffering in a children’s hospital. White’s response was basically how hypocritical the atheist was, because a children’s hospital is just an example of “survival of the fittest” at work. How can the emotions of an atheist be bent to compassion for suffering? It can’t. That compassion is just more evidence of God!
Anyway it is great to hear about Dahmer’s conversion. This story reminds me also the importance of taking the Gospel out in as many forms as you can – even in donating books.

your wording is a little strange, but i’m gathering that you’re saying and atheist’s emotions can’t include compassion? you couldn’t be more wrong. all the atheist i personally know have more compassion than the christians, and there are by far more christians around here than not.
survival of the fittest for children? i don’t know one atheist who thinks a sick child with cancer deserves to be in that situation because they somehow deserve it, that they’re not fit enough to survive. what is wrong with you?
Justin Edwards
October 28, 2011
Sorry, bina – somehow your comment got by me for approval.
No, that would be incorrect. Atheists most certainly can and do show compassion, but this is only because Atheists are created in the image of God. Even though humans are fallen creatures, this doesn’t mean they are as evil as they can possibly be. For instance, Hitler wasn’t as evil as he could be – he did not kill his own mother, correct?
Moreover, if you see someone claiming to be a Christian who is not compassionate, I would argue they may not be a Christian at all. Calling yourself a Christian doesn’t make you a Christian any more than calling yourself a horse makes you a horse.
Not sure of your point about sick children – I don’t believe illness has anything to do with faith or a lack of, Christian or not Christian. Sickness is a result of sin, although God could use sickness to fulfill His purposes for His glory.
Do you believe God exists, bina?
Personal Failure
October 14, 2011
My dog was abused before I got him. I can still find the cigarette burns in his lovely fur. When I got him, he would piss himself if I lifted my arm to get a plate out of the cupboards. It took me a long time and a lot of patience and love to convince him that no one was going to hurt him ever again, and he rewards me for that with such beautiful happiness that I’m sure I’m the lucky one in our relationship.
I am atheist, Justin and I have never deliberately hurt another person or animal. I don’t even eat meat anymore or wear leather because I feel bad about the pigs and the cows, too. (Although I really do miss lamb. So tasty.) I cry when I see stories about abused animals or children. Even though I know it was necessary, WWII makes me think about all the children who must have died, because even Nazis had children.
How dare you compare me to a murderer. How dare you tell everyone who will listen that I would herd Jews and Gypsies into the ovens if only I had the chance. You don’t know me, and what’s worse, you don’t want to. You just want to sit on your high horse and call me terrible names and look forward to the day you can watch me burning in hell and then you can laugh at me.
You are bad man, Justin.

Hi PF, it’s good to hear from you. My article made no claim that all Atheists are as evil as Dahmer et al. These men are indeed the products of Atheism and take it to its extreme. Whether you believe it or not, we are all born evil, but some become more evil than others. Where you got the idea that I would take pleasure in your going to hell is beyond me, for I would want nothing more than for you to realize your desperate need of a loving Savior in the Lord Jesus Christ instead of boasting in your own self-righteousness. And yes, I am a bad man, just like you are a bad woman. The only difference is I have been saves by the grace of God and have been made a new creation in Christ. I am not better than you, PF, but I am better off. You should check out that Eternal Life link if you haven’t before. I love you, PF, and pray you would seek God as He promises to reward those who do.

even if you’re right (which I’m not conceding)… it doesn’t make evolution (as a science) wrong
what I see when I see arguments like this is someone who didn’t ever quite ‘get it’ in their science classes
Justin Edwards
October 15, 2011
Hi kcs, good to see you again. As a biochemistry grad from a top school in the U.S., I understood my classes just fine. In any case, it seems you believe that everything came from nothing? That’s an awful lot of blind faith.
Keith Stevenson
October 16, 2011
you ‘understood’ your classes just fine? Did you point out all the errors in your education to your professors? Did you go to the school board of regents and protest the fact that the school was teaching falsehoods?
If not… why not?
do you mind sharing exactly which school you graduated from?
and, again you failed to address my main point.
Justin Edwards
October 16, 2011
Sure, it was NC State University, and I wasn’t born again then.
I did answer your main point by asking whether you believed that everything came from nothing.
Keith Stevenson
October 16, 2011
so you have a biochemistry degree from NC State… at what point did you realize that everything you had learned was false? And if it is soooo obvious NOW that it was false… why didn’t you pick up on it earlier? Was it your desire to commit mass murder like Jeffrey Dahmer? Oh yeah… and have you written all those professors and the board of regents about it? Given back your ‘false’ degree?
and um.. Justin… answering by asking another question is not addressing the point.
here ya go… here is my point (copied verbatim from above)
“even if you’re right (which I’m not conceding)… it doesn’t make evolution (as a science) wrong”
how does asking me if I believe we came from nothing address that? Doesn’t matter what you or I ‘believe’ at all when it comes to evidence and science.
Justin Edwards
October 16, 2011
Keith, I was a false convert while being at NC State and believed in creation. Evolution was scarcely discussed by the professors, but when it was I dismissed it. I remember disputing it on a test when I was asked a question about origins from an RNA world. I answered the question by qualifying with, “according to such and such…” In any case this is all just a red herring and unrelated to the discussion here.
You are exactly right about our beliefs not mattering if they don’t conform to the truth. And that’s exactly why I asked you the question I did and am still waiting for an answer.

everything came from nothing in the god story as well. you say that keith has blind faith, yet you believe in god? where’s the proof in that?
Justin Edwards
October 28, 2011
That is correct, bina – except that God did not come from anything. He has always been and exists outside of space and time. He is the first cause although He was not caused. Everything indeed came from nothing when God said “Let there be light.”
The proof that God exists is all around you, bina:
Psalm 19:1 “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.”
Romans 1:18 “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 19For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 21For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.“

Evolution has a lot of scientific evidence against it.
I am not saying that changes in species do not happen; in fact, new species have been observed to come into existence. But this variation with populations is not the same thing as all organisms developing from a single parent form. We can scientifically observe species adapting to different habitats, and these adaptions are possible because each species has a genetic code that contains the instructions for modifying features for better survival in different habitats.
But the bigger kind of evolution, the one it claims “accounts for the development of all organisms,” cannot be scientifically observed today, since it would take too long. This “macro” evolution could not create totally new creature forms (like from fish to amphibian) because such drastic changes require that new genetic information be added to the genetic code of the organism population. By genetic info, I mean things like new genes and the parts of a creature’s DNA that tells its cells how to operate and reproduce. For example, the genetic code of a bacterium contains much less information than the genetic code of a human being (bacteria have less genes than humans), so this genetic information must come from somewhere.
It’s claimed that mutations provide new genetic information, but they are a poor explanation because mutations, which are copying “mistakes,” often lose information. A mutation may disable a gene that once worked, which is a degradation of the gene, not higher evolving. Also, most mutations are mildly harmful, so higher evolving is very unlikely to occur as a result of mutations. Since mutations provide the only potential source of new genes for natural selection to work with, if mutations cannot create genes, then natural selection will not lead to “macro,” or cell-to-man, evolution. Small changes are definitely possible, and we see them all the time, but there is much valid scientific evidence against large-scale evolution.

The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day they pour forth speech and night after night they declare knowledge. see Psalm 19
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse…Romans 1:18-20
The Bible says that the evidence of God and of His having created everything is clearly seen. God has made it clear in creation, in conscience and ultimately in Christ. Every man has the evidence but the Bible says that men actively suppress the truth because for one thing they do not want a Creator to whom they would be accountable.
