Gina:
Welcome Lazar. :)
cherokee:
Welcome back Lazar. :)
Wonone:
Thank you to all for words of welcome, especially my NZ
Gidday Mate!
It is a pleasure getting to know you better by reading your various posts.
Initial impressions: two things are different now.
1/ I know that I know that I want to get to know you, people of the BT!
I know of no greater treasure on earth to explore, and consider this site's knowledge worth more than ten PhD's! At my age one gets kind of selective where one invests time into.
2/ May be this is purely subjective or the result of changes in me, yet, there appears to have been a certain maturing, reflected in deeper peace and rest, in this forum. As if navigating more steady waters? Or, is it a lull before another storm!?
Presently, I feel like hugging you all and telling you: You are precious to God! -- Time to read, listen and watch more and learn how to operate various 'gadgets' here; and a warning, this dude can be very slow!
PS Indiana Bob touched a topic that is a priority with me at the moment:

Last few months read quite a bit of A E Knoch material and was blessed in many ways, but, when it came to the NT Scriptures being divided into target audiences, like Circumcision and Uncircumcision, was left gasping for air. Clearly, potentially, it is a big factor. Any suggestions where to start?
Gina:
I know exactly how you feel. I feel the same way. I give these people the hardest time and they are so mature about everything. I just want to hug them too. There is a great peace here. We feel safe here because we are.
Re Gentiles and AE Knoch, a good place to start is "Do James and Paul Contradict?" http://forums.bible-truths.com/index.php/topic,9742.0.html
Here's a small excerpt from that transcript:
WHAT DOES PETER TEACH?
What about Peter? Peter is the one that teaches a different gospel? We already saw what Paul had to say about good works. What about Peter, did Peter have anything to say about good works?
1Peter 2:12 Having your conversation (conduct) honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
Peter also… “good works.” Yes they talked about faith and grace, but good works, it’s there, it’s every where.
Ray was very familiar with the writings and beliefs of AE Knoch (and also those of Martin Zender a/k/a Jeff Priddy, as he and Ray were friends).
I prayed that God stabilize me so that I wasn't constantly "tossed to and fro" by every changing wind of doctrine. Now I'm of the same belief as you: I won't find any other place like this on the net.
Kat is very familiar with Ray's writings and I can always depend on her to pinpoint pertinent excerpts and studies by Ray when people have questions. She's gifted that way and she loves to do it. I imagine she will bring something good to the table for your to sink your teeth into re the Gentiles/Peter and Paul, too.
