They Tried to Court-Martial Me for Keeping the Sabbath (Navy Testimony)
A young U.S. Navy sailor is told he must work on the Sabbath—then faces legal threats when he refuses. In this powerful Christian testimony, Chuck Cleveland shares how he became a Seventh-day Adventist, how the Bible transformed his life, and how a chain-of-command confrontation nearly led to court-martial. You’ll hear the shocking moment inside a military office, the unexpected phone call that changed the outcome, and how God led Chuck from high school dropout to medical missionary and ministry leader—helping establish lifestyle medicine and wellness centers in multiple countries. This is a story about religious liberty, Sabbath conviction, and what it looks like to stand for faith under pressure. 00:00 Intro 00:20 Immigrated Background 01:20 Growing up 3:35 Divorce 6:52 Going to the Navy 11:50 Started Going to Church 13:51 Finding God 15:48 Bible Studies with Both Adventists and Mormons 19:05 Working on Saturday 21:15 Sabbath Conflict with the Navy °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° Check out more Powerful videos: ➽ The State of God's Church Today: • Christ's Final Warnings: Navigating Signs ... ➽ Why I Left Christianity & Why I Came Back: • Why I Left Christianity and Why I Came Bac... ➽ 8 Steps To Transform Your Spiritual Life!!: • 8 Steps To Transform Your Spiritual Life!!... °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° It Is Written is a media evangelism ministry sharing the everlasting gospel worldwide.
