[FrogGigger]

Greetings to the kind folks at Bible-Truths.  I attended two Bible-Truth's seminars over the last several years (Nashville about 5-6 years ago, and Mobile about 3 years ago), and have visited the forum from time-to-time as a guest.  I have not had a consistent internet connection to spend much time in forums, but would like to post my testimony as to the circumstances that led me to Bible-Truths.com, but, in short, it went something like this as I simply "popped the question" in prayer:  "Help me understand the doctrine of hell...I can't understand it...I can't perceive that it is from You...after all, it is You who brought us into being...we never ask to be created to be placed in such horrendous jeopardy...by the way, aren't You supposed to be PERFECT?...well then, that would necessitate a PERFECT PLAN...well that sounds "logical" enough, but is there any Scripture to support such a LOGICAL statement?"

Would you know that I was prompted to read some material on a Christian "apologetics" web-site, and followed a link to a link and there it was:  "The Hell of Christianity Does NOT Exist and You Can Prove It"...the tag-line used by Bible-Truths!  You could not have ask for a more direct response to my question!  As I began reading the "Lake of Fire" series the Scriptures began to make sense for the first time in my life!  Such was my introduction to Bible-Truths.

In my studies I was also led to the verses of Scripture that support the "logical" statement regarding the PERFECTION of Yahweh!  Ironically enough, one such verse was Deu 32:4 from the "Song of Moses"!

Deu 32:4 NASB
(4)  "The Rock! His work is perfect, For all His ways are just; A God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and upright is He.

Another witness of many such verses:
Isa 25:1 NASB
(1)  O LORD, You are my God; I will exalt You, I will give thanks to Your name; For You have worked wonders, Plans formed long ago, with perfect faithfulness.

Will close with those thoughts as I could go on "forever" proclaiming His Faithfulness to the ends of the earth!

Welcome to the forum FrogGigger! Does this mean you will be a regular poster now? Hope you can visit us and share often.
I always enjoy seeing how others found BT.
I wasn't looking myself, content in my blindness. Friend sends me the tithing article and it was all over! Couldn't get enough of all the other stuff! 
Look forward to getting to know you better.

I still do not have a consistent internet connection, and have become quite the local "coffeehouse bum" to conduct my on-line business.  Don't know if I will have much time to spend in the forums, but will definitely check-in once in a while.  L. Ray and Bible-Truths.com holds a special place in my heart, and I want to stay updated, if perhaps, I can attend another conference. I wish you well as you continue to ask, seek, and knock!

[Dave in Tenn]

It's very nice to meet you.  I'm always greatly encouraged and excited to see new scripture testifying to the Gospel.  Thanks for sharing those.

Welcome to the forum FrogGigger!

Like you, I am attached to this forum and never have had a day without looking, reading posts in the forum, as well as in the main site.  I'm not much of a contributor though for I am not that good expressing my thoughts in writing.  I just stick myself in greetings newbies like you for a while.

Again, welcome!

A warm welcome to you FrogGigger

What does your AKA name mean I wonder....

Arc

Frog-gigging is a sport in the South where people hunt frogs with a pronged spear-like pole - usually for the meat of the frog's legs.  I have never literally hunted frogs in this manner, and if anything "taste like chicken" I usually defer my appetite for chicken...if you know what I mean!

Anyway,  Rev 16:13 provided the inspiration for "FrogGigger" (one who "gigs" frogs)  as it applies to "gigging" doctrines of demons - in particular, the doctrines of "eternal punishment".

And I saw, out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false-prophet, three impure spirits, as frogs;  (Rev 16:13 EB)

So this is the meaning of my AKA name...a bit "corny" perhaps, but I have a very dry sense of humor!

[Deborah-Leigh]

Excellent!
