Hello Everyone!

skydreamers:
Hi guys, my name is Diana and I've been studying Ray's site for almost a year now and following the forum for several months.  I have to say I have learned so much from all the frequent posters....thank you all for your contributions!  Quick history:  my background is in the SDA church (approx 7 years).  SDA's believe in the annihilation of the wicked and I decided a year ago to study this indepth in order to show other non-SDA christians I know that God will not burn anyone for eternity.  Well God had other things in store for me as He began to show me that not only will he not burn anyone for eternity but neither will he annihilate his precious children.  It all began with discovering that the word AION does not mean eternal.  Eventually I stumbled onto bible-truths.com and from that point on the pieces started to fit together like never before and there was no turning back.  Probably the only thing that remained intact from my background in the SDA was that the dead sleep....everything else has been steadily turned upside down!  The most fascinating study I found to be Ray's papers on the Beast....wow....the beast is me!  Now it is so clear!  Also, the concept that God made man a marred vessel from the beginning and that Satan was not a high position angel that turned on God and became evil......mind blowing to say the least.  These things became clear to me very quickly.  However, I had the most struggle with the topic of "free will".  It took a while for God to burn that one out of me ;D.  I am learning and absorbing new things all the time and it is exciting yet scary to see that I really don't know anything and have only touched the very tip of the iceberg.  I look forward to more learning and fellowship.  Thanks guys, peace, Diana

Hi Diana,

Welcome to the forum.  The journey we all seem to go through before being blessed with "spiritual sight" is remarkably similar.  In my quest for truth, I did some research on the SD's.  Thankfully, the Lord did not allow me to go that route.  I had already been a baptist and a Jehovah's Witness.  I guess that was enough blindness for anyone ;D.

Once again, welcome, and I look forward to reading your posts on the forum.

Hi Diana,

I too found or was lead to Ray's site about a year ago, and many others say it was about a year ago for them too, interesting.
I am still being purged of false beliefs that were deeply ingrained into my understanding.
But I am sure God will continue His loving chastening, until I am rid of all the old self  :P

I am glad that you have come to the forum.
I hope you will ask questions and share with us soon.
It is a joy to welcome yet another sister  :)

mercy, peace, and love
Kat

Welcome to the forum Diana

I was led to Ray's site about four months ago, and when i found out everyone would be saved it

was the most wonderful news. I have been reading and studing ever since.

As I go through the LOF papers for the second time I'm seeing things that I missed the first

time. I too have learned a lot from all the posters here on the forum. There have been so

many great threads that have helped me to see things clearer.

Welcome Diana...yep, very similar.  What fun it was to find out my beliefs were a lie!!!  All my beliefs were the opposite!!  I didn't know doodly.  When I found out the beast was....ME  I cried & laughed & whooped & hollared.  I KNEW it was the truth!  Like you the Free Will didn't come as easily.  I didn't whoop as much :-[

Anyway, looking forward to fellowshipping with you.
