Bobby,

As you know, the problems Ray and Mike have been having is between them, and really none of my business.  This is the way I have felt concerning them, let them work it out privately.

I don't see where you have done anybody wrong on this forum.  Of course I don't know what has transpired through pms.  This is why I have purposefully not used the pm except to edify another.  

All of us here have been ridiculed or persecuted for the belief we hold.  This is a part of the process, for as He was, so shall we.  This brings us all to a point where we must forgive, because He forgave us while still sinners.  That is a very important thing that separates the ones who profess to know and the ones who really know, because God has humbled us in this area of life.

God is working in your life, bobby.  This is very evident to see, and we must not only forgive those who have done us wrong, but we must forgive ourselves.  We must move on and not look back.  A true brother or sister will forgive, if not you have done your best, now we must move on not looking back.

Not sure if its the same for you all, but because of this belief God has given me, I am constantly surrounded by those who look intently for any little thing they can use to bring me down.  And it is not the ones who don't believe, but the ones who profess to believe.  This is a strange thing, and my hope not to be a partaker of that mindset.  Yet, it is everywhere.  So, what are we to do?  

I think we all know by now, we must forgive them.  God has forgiven you and us, and the true brethren have forgiven you and us.  We must get past the ways of this world and let our minds think of the heavenly things so we can grow and press onto maturity.  It truly is a battle between the carnal mind and the mind of Christ.  

I truly appreciate your open sincerity spoken through your words.  You are very well loved and liked here.  There is not a single one of us here who deserve to be where we are in this walk.  It is only through the grace, love and merciful truth that is the character of the God we worship.  These are the things that grow in us, yet not without a struggle.  

Hope you stick around, brother.

God bless,

Gary

Bobby I too have no idea what you may have did or said to make you feel the way you do. Frankly, you are truly a shining star in this forum, I have never read anything negative in any of your posts and you brighten my day. Bobby, my brother you are a truly inspire me for the love of Christ is very evident in you.

I too apologize, for over the last couple of days I have stepped on more than a few toes. :(

Sometimes even the best intent is not enough.

Joe, why not have a members only area? Where questions can be discussed without fear of leading anyone astray.

Bobby, please do not leave.

This sort of thing is why I have thought about leaving the forum time and again....but I keep coming back. I don't mind having to defend myself or my God...but No one likes to do it on a daily basis. I like the forum just the way it is...flawed as it my be... but, aren't we all?

Bobby,
   I would like to add my voice to those imploring you to reconsider this decision.  I don't think you failed anyone here as a moderator or member.  We all stumble and fall from time to time.  Your posts are such a blessing to all of us.  Your posts have helped a lot of us come forward and join the forum and start posting.  That is a powerful testimony of God working in your life.  I hope you will reconsider and stay.  I love you a great deal and will miss you so much if you go.   :'(

hi.  I have just spent the week in Florida!! So....as I look at the Forum I realize it will take a long time to read everything I have missed.  Must have been a doozy tho for you, bobby, to resign as a mod.  You just started! You have got to get your feet wet, and some experience at it.  One thing is very evident.  You are loved and appreciated here. Reconsider, unless the Lord is truly leading you out.

Also, noticed the LOF series is off the forum. I enjoyed reading those. I guess I have missed a lot!

I am going to Tenn. in August for a week.  No fair-don't change anything while I am away next time!! ;)
