Sharing Rays website
Linny:
Southland,
I would ask you if either of them have approached the subject with you? Have THEY said anything to you that would lead you to think they might be open to hearing about Ray's teachings?
If not, I would not be in any hurry to share.
If we offend those not ready to hear (and believe me, people are easily offended by truth when they are blind to it), then we risk alienation with them.
I would rather "be ready to give an answer" when they ask a question so that I feel more secure in God's leading and will be there for them if God should choose to open their eyes.
Just my opinion....

Hi Matt,
I would suggest continue learning the bible truths. You'll learn very fast that not everyone is interested in learning truth. That may include your closest family and friends. It's like this. How do you undo all the teachings that have been implanted in people who attend church today by false teachers for centuries? You don't. God does.
I have shared several bible-truths to my family and friends and the looks I got were not very enthusiastic. The truth is since God led me to bible-truths.com in the summer of 2007 I have not met in one person who shares my beliefs of Ray's teachings. I see many at this forum! That's good news! Now I understand why Ray teaches that many are Called, few Chosen and the "Elect" much less than Chosen. It takes courage to go against the grain on Christendom doctrines and false teachings.
I would just pray for those who don't know truth and ask God to open their minds and hearts. Don't be anxious to try to save anyone or have disputed arguments about about bible-truth topics. Remember we are called to Christ by the Father and by His Grace has called us into truth. Allow God to do His work so you can give Him glory if He chooses to allow them to know truth.
Hope this helps,
rbn

Hi Matt, you have gotten some pretty good advice from the Brothers and Sisters, I just want to add that it may help to actually get a good understanding of these truths for yourself before you actually share with someone. Study these truths thoroughly till they are firmly planted and written in the tablets of your heart, then you might be able to share when asked or otherwise.
Pro 3:3 Don't let love and truth ever leave you. Tie them around your neck. Write them on the tablet of your heart.
Pro 7:3 Tie them on your fingers. Write them on the tablet of your heart.
2Co 3:3 You make it clear that you are a letter from Christ. You are the result of our work for God. You are a letter written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God. You are a letter written not on tablets made out of stone but on human hearts.
Peace, G. Driggs
