 I had a life-changing encounter with Jesus during my first year of studying Theology. I was heavily involved with New age before that and had no clue about Christianity at all.  I enrolled in Theology solely because they had a good philosophy program and I wasn't interested in God.  But after a supernarual encounter that  I describe in the article My Testimony on the Slovenian version of my site,  my life changed drastically. I graduated in Biblical Theology on the topic of the Blood Covenant and Redemption, under the mentorship of Dr. Jurij Bizjak, one of the most enthusiastic Bible researchers I have ever had the honor of meeting. I  took my master's degree in Biblical Theology and Patristics at the Catholic University in Ljubljana,  Slovenia, under the mentorship of Dr. Maksimiljan Matjaž. The topic of my final thesis was Israel and the Church (based on Apostle Paul's theology).  My main interest as a bible researcher was systematic theology. 

 

A few years after my conversion, I had many opportunities to serve in various churches, christian events, and associations. During the years when I studied theology, I was involved in evangelization projects all over Slovenia under the Jesus Film Project for 3 years and was a moderator of ecumenical charismatic meetings throughout all the years of my study. I also led prayer meetings for approximately 7 years in the non-denominational church called Christian Center Nova Generacija, led by pastors Danijel and Vyara Kašnar,  located in Ljubljana, Slovenia I was one of the founding members of the church and was actively involved from its beginning in 1995 to 2021 when God called us out. The church was one of the pioneering forces ushering in prophetic worship and intercession in the region , had emphasis on personal holiness and obbedience and had a strong call to become an apostolic center. It was part of the  International Strategic Alliance of Apostolic Churches (I.S.A.A.C. Network) founded by Dr. Jonathan David. I regularly attended their conferences and short-term schools in Muar, Malaysia for more than 10 years, app. from 2006 - 2016, which provided tremendous apostolic and prophetic input.

 

The time spent in obscurity was primarily a time of building, personal sanctification, and learning obedience. Some years ago  I started teaching children in Sunday school due to a need that arose. I thought I’m doing fine. That is why I was quite surprised when the Holy Spirit challenged me with the statement that I was neglecting His call. I described the vision in detail in the article Answer to God's call.​ All of these years God kept visiting me, showing me the spiritual world, and took me to heaven many times. He only requested that I not share my experiences with other people around me, because they would not understand and to devote myself to the study of the Scriptures and sound biblical doctrine because these are the measuring rods for all spiritual experiences ...   

​

So, 3 weeks after I received a vision that we have to move out of our familiar zone of Christianity,  I was invited to join the Morningstar Fellowship of Ministry in Europe as an Associate Minister first and was ordained into Full Time Ministry in 2023 by the Morningstar Ministries Ordaining Council.  In 2021 we founded Cornelius Art & Faith Collective, a Christian non-profit association registered here in Slovenia, with a vision to reach to the local community and broader audiences with an authentic expression of faith. 

​

So  I started to devote myself more consciously to what I believe is the Lord’s will for this time.

 

"It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables...

(now) we will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word." (Acts 6:3-4)

​

Just recently we started a church, ARKA International Christian Center in Ljubljana, Slovenia, a non-denominational apostolic community and a place of authentic worship,  still in the process of registration, we meet on Friday at 7PM for the revival prayer nights and Sunday for Service at 11AM at LESKOŠKOVA 9E, BTC-Ljubljana (Tempera Hall), and once a month we have prayer meetings with Christians from different local churches on the Slovenian coast named ALTAR, committed to pray for the revival of the region where 3 countries are represented  (Slovenia, Croatia and Italy). We organize Healing Rooms localy and lead an European international  Online Connect group for Morningstar Ministries, I’m a member of Europe Shall be Saved Network, IAHM Healing Ministries Network and Global Evangelist Network.
