I too had to give up many beliefs gained from many different religions. I had the same questions that most share I guess, but was never given an answer that I could base my standing with God on.

I found answers to my questions here and I feel vindicated because I believe the following:

1Cr 3:16

Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? (RSV)

Sometimes I forget, and all the time I know that I am not nearly the person I wish to be, but I have found the truth. The church has no hold on me and there are NO regrets!!  :)

Hey, Shibboleth

I can sure relate to what you said. When I first saw Ray's site, I was on disability after suffering an achilles tendon injury. When God got me in that vulnerable state was when I found Ray's site after doing a Google search on none other than evangelist Paula White, and the words "Tithing is unscriptural " glared at me like it was about to jump off the screen. To this day, I don't know why I was drawn to that link, because I certainly have heard that before, but always thought it was heresy. The rest as they say is history. But I surely shed a lot of tears while I labored in prayer...I mean, gut-wrenching sobs, when I was struggling to ignore what I read on Ray's site, because although what I read made so much sense and answered questions that I've had dating back to when I first became a christian in 1979, it truly is difficult to surrender those idols of the heart. I guess in a way, I can see why so many people who email Ray are so outraged, and yet, can't dispute anything he says with scripture.

Didn't mean to post a mini autobiography, but I get so excited when I talk about how God gave me eyes to see.

Bless y'all
