RADICAL ATHEIST TRANSFORMED BY ENCOUNTER WITH JESUS
written by Christa April 13, 2023

A radical atheist spent his early years arguing with Christians. He wanted to stir up doubts and questions in God’s people because of his unbelief. The radical atheist just needed a radical encounter, so that’s what God did to Viktar Saikouski.

Radical Atheist

Viktar grew up in a troubled family in Belarus. After his dad left them, his mother found another man, and she got married again. And since that time, Viktar was “married into the belief of atheism.” He said, “I truly believe that there’s no such thing as God.”

When his mom and stepdad got divorced because of their alcohol and drug abuse, Viktar’s mom decided to move the family to the US for better opportunities.

Soon, his stepdad also moved to the US and came to salvation in Jesus Christ. He reached out to Viktar’s family again and wanted to reconcile.

Viktar did not believe that “church” could change his stepdad. He and his mother found it very hard to believe. But eventually, his stepdad showed the transformation, and he and Viktar’s mom remarried again.

The family now attended church because of his stepdad. But Viktar remained an “unbelieving believer.”

Radical Encounter

Then at a prayer gathering, Viktar experienced God’s presence which changed his life. After getting prayed for, Viktar fell to the ground, and for three to four hours, he encountered God.

“God, at that moment, seemed more real to me than ever before,” he shared. God entirely delivered Viktar from his unbelief and addiction.

“At that moment, I experienced the presence and love of the Holy Spirit like I never felt it before.”

Since that day, Viktar has been a changed man. God’s presence truly transformed his life.

“Even though I did not believe in God, even though I cursed God, God still chose me. God still believed in me. God loved me and encountered me even in the midst of all my unbelief, in the midst of denying Him, God loved me and chose me.”
