Hi Pete,
Welcome to the forum :)
This place works quite well for getting the needed fellowship we all seem to desire. I know it's not the same as face to face meetings, but it serves a good purpose for bringing together like minded people from all over this world. I have met some people that we now go beyond the forum with regular communications and that is great.
Just come in when you need to and ask questions that you have and you should find the interaction to be very helpful.

Patric:
Welcome Pete......
It seems persecution is with you my brother! This is a sign that you are being molded into our Father's image. Unless of course you are so blinded and deceived that devil has indeed rolled you over LOL. In either case most Christians will be against you either way! aah just like the witch hunts of old....once accused or in opposition you are doomed. I find that what comes out of my mouth is rarely my own knowledge. The Spirit speaks through me and for me when I speak of scripture. I also realize that those who also read the same book may or may not have the same understanding as I or have been shown the same revelations. So I make no judgments nor say what is right or wrong. Some have stronger or weaker faith then others. I am sure that not everything that I believe or think or worship is perfect.
I take heart in knowing that our Father will change us all. He chooses who sees and hears and understands his word. Therefore it does not depend upon humankind effort or desire. See your family and Pastors this way and you will have peace and less pressure to win with your side weather you are right or wrong. By you seeking to be meek and gentle you are erring on the side that will have less resistance. Ray told me something profound in one of his papers. Blind people can not see! This of course is Spiritual and is true. No matter how close you put this to their face or how big the letters, or how beautiful the writing they will not see.
Let him who has eyes see. Let him who has ears hear. Let him that is alive continue to live.
It does not say Let him that is blind be teased. Let him that can't hear be yelled at. And let him that is dead be kicked and rolled.
just my two cents

loretta:
Your two cents is priceless, Patric! :) Sometimes, in my idle wonderings, I begin to question whether I am the one who is deceived. And then I read such words of wisdom that can only come from God himself, and I rest assured that the truth has indeed been revealed to the elect of whom I am blessed to be part of.
scoobychiro:
Thanks All of you for replying and writing.
To DaveUK...my uncle and extended family run the calvary pentecostal church in Parkstone. (Cromwell Road). I have had a lot of feedback via my immediate family from their 'learned' ways which can never be wrong, to the point where my cousin who I have grown up with and shared many a mad moment has been told by his Pastor father never to see me again!
Whilst generally offended to the core with the un-Christian behaviour, I actually have been given the good-hearted nature to just ride with it..thanks only to God.
I have gone through about 4 years of hard work, and arguments, and now the gentleness thing is starting to work inside me.
Again, thanks only to God.
I am like minded with you guys and what Ray has taught...the blind just simply cannot see, and it is only God who opens the blind eyes. His choice, never ours. And from that perspective, which has taken a while to sink into this thick skin, I am happier now to just love them as Christ loved them (ish!!) and to also cry out with Him " Father forgive them (all) for they know not what they do!"
And equally for me...I never knew what I was doing for 36 years, and maybe still see through a dark glass, dimly. And I never chose to come out of that place...so I must have been dragged!
Does anyone struggle with the opposite thoughts...whereby lots of people in pain may say 'why me?'...does anyone ask 'why has God chosen me to potentially be of the elect?'...and I choose my words carefully because I am not confident in my position before God. "why am I chosen and not my Dad/friend/worthy person to my right?"
In Love Pete
