> Introductions, Announcements, and More of Ray's Teachings
I'm new here! I was accepted! Whoohoo!
Loverly:
Hi Bob!
Thanks for the welcome! Really, no one cares that much about what I believe. I just wanted to make a statement that I am not part of them even though I continue to post meaningful Scriptures and praise Yeshua since I do come from a huge circle of Christendom people. They all already knew I was a bit off from them anyway. lol Really, I knew some of this stuff wasn't right and I was really trying to put together like a time line or something to see why I was so confused on end times stuff. Nice the Holy Spirit brought me to the site so I didn't have to keep trying to figure it out. I can now move on to other studying!

Hi Loverly, Welcome to the family.
You are a blessing to me just to see the love you have for Our LORD.
All the hardships He has brought you through. I know how you feel.
You are in good company here, these brothers and sisters here have helped me through a lot of pain and suffering in the past 3 years with love and prayer.
You will be blessed here with love and understanding through the word of God That all here share.
My God continue to enlighten you with His Word of Truth and your daughter also. That is a blessing in its self to have your daughter learning with you, I have no family members that believe this TRUTH, But in God's time it will be so.
I would love to share your love of God on your FB.
Your sister in Christ,
Virginia Miller
Loverly:
Thank you Virginia!
He gave me no choice really other than to love Him ONLY. :) Wasn't much else to do after the personal kingdom was demolished.
It's honestly really weird to have people that know what I'm talking about for a change. I'm sure you all do know how this really feels as I read through some of the forums about your lives. Lots of different trials and adversity for us all to get to this one point of understanding.
I'm so sorry to hear that no one in your family gets it. That is difficult in itself! I do pray God calls out at least another family member for you to talk with.
My daughter is the only one in all of my friends and family that "get it" as we have come to call it. We are so excited to have each other and know God has a plan for us both to do together or He wouldn't have called us both at the same time.
I looking forward to getting to know the people on here better as really no one else can even talk to me for very long without starting their character attacks. Just this week my insane mother is at it again with messages on FB. Same sociopathic manipulative bondage fear stuff she's always done but Yeshua has freed me completely of bowing down to anyone or their opinions of me. It makes people that want to control and manipulate REALLY angry! :)
I love studying the Bible so it's amazing to find people that love it as much as I do! HUGE blessing!
I'll send you a message with my full name so we can connect on FB too!
Love and hugs!

I stumbled across this site over a week ago and have joyously read my every loverly brains out every day! :)
Long story short. I was steeped in "funnymentalist" Christendom from birth and even graduated from Bob Jones University. I lived out the good prodigal daughters life until my 30's when I decided that God was stupid and I wanted happiness so I lived out the bad prodigal daughters life to the fullest! I was married for 22 years to a fundamentalist also lived a hypocritical life. Upon hearing from my 12 year old that she was being fondled daily by her daddy (yes my husband!) I had to kick him out and never let him return. My sand castle kingdom was flattened to fine powder in every aspect including financially. I was angry with God of course and continued on my path of destruction and still claiming I knew Jesus. 2 years ago Yeshua drug me to repentance and after that has given me His "hunger and thirst for righteousness" and studying the Word. All family on both sides, all steeped in Christendom shunned, verbally assaulted and left us for dead blaming me for my husbands actions. Even husband blamed me and never has repented.
Our church and all "Christians" shunned us as well. That was a huge eye opener!
God used all of this to bring me to Himself and also my daughter age 16. My 18 year old son however has not turned and is verbally abusive to us for our beliefs. I'm a single mom with only Yeshua to help me. He took everything away, house, husband, money, people, family, friends etc etc etc and started from scratch to build a new creation! He gave me no choice at all to follow Him or not. I have learned to obey His voice and His only. The "arm of flesh" fails every time but Yeshua never fails!
He has me on a walk of faith right now financially which has been crazy but I obey. Just hit my neighbors car today backing outta the drive way (college son was home and parked it there!) but knew it was for a reason and just thanked God for it. No income for a year and a half and only a couple of months bill money, but whatever.....it's God's problem not mine!
I home schooled my kids up until both were accepted into a high school early college program 5 years ago. They both have taken high school and 2 years of college at the same time. They both started at age 14 and my life fell apart only 2 months after my son's first semester. So I've been doing this alone now for 9 semesters! I have no family in this town and really no friends to speak of. Pretty single mom's don't get invited ANYWHERE where couples are! lol I'm the mom, dad and entire pit crew to get them through school.
My daughter and I had already been called out of the organized church awhile now. We stopped attending way back in May and were trying to figure out what in the world to do. I study the Bible a lot and realized that I don't believe in a 2nd 2nd coming (it just wasn't adding up) so was researching that and a bunch of other things when I found this site. I didn't get angry at all but knew Ray was right and have appreciated all of the hard work he did in his studying! What an huge blessing!
My daughter knew it was right as well. God is teaching her right along with me and she has an amazing discerning spirit. The minute I told her there was no hell we both knew it was truth and our burden of fear lifted! We hated that doctrine and were weeping over friends and my son more than once a week! Just wasn't jiving in our spirits! We both know what the Refiners Fire in our souls really does and has been doing! No need to explain that to us! LOL WE GET IT!
Anyway, we are happy to know there are a few people out there that understand these truths and I'm excited to talk with a few of you! :) We have never met a true believe/follower of Jesus...man or woman EVER! I have over 400 people on my FB account mostly all in Christendom (many professors, the daughter of Bob Jones III and even the PR man of BJU!) and they all think I've lost my mind completely.

Welcome to the forum loverly,
I am new to the forum too! Some story you have. I love your enthusism and you are very blessed to have your daughter understand the truth at the same time! My brother, Dad, and Mom haven't come out of Christendom physically but they do have the fruits of the spirit. In fact we will all be together Tuesday through Thursday! Otherwise I am in wilderness with my bf Jesus. 8)
Have a good day,
Jason
Loverly:
Hi Jason! Also, welcome to you then! :)
That was the short short mini series version but glad you enjoyed it! :) It's truly amazing what Jesus can do with all of the big mess and still make someone shine whether they want to or not!
You made me giggle with the bf Jesus comment. Even though my daughter and I do have each other she is 16 and I'm 46 so she wishes someone her age would get this too.
It's definitely a wilderness though among so many people that don't understand and the accusations are even more amazing.
I'm glad you can see the fruit of the Spirit though in some of your family! I find after living religiously that so many know the lingo very well but really when they talk their words don't match up with the fruit. It's weird to hear their words come out of their mouths and hear the double talk.
I'm soooo happy to be out of darkness for the past 2 years and all of the bondage of controlling people and sin. It's exciting to get up every day to see what's next.
Knowing that Yeshua will NEVER fail and either has to take care of me or kill me is comforting! :)
Anyway,....hugs and I pray you also keep growing in the "knowledge of the truth."
