PKnowler, You are missed.

Sorin:
Yes, I agree you guys. I don't even know why I got into a whole marriage discussion anyways. My intent wasn't to offend anybody, and I apologize if I did.
Paula, I hope you'll decide to come back. For we all make mistakes, all we can do is try to learn from them and move on.

Take care,
Sorin

Kat:

Hi Anne,

I hope you do get a new computer, where you can get eSword.
I rely on mine a great deal.
If I had to look up all the scripture in the Book, it would take a lot of my time just searching.
I don't mind helping all I can  :)

mercy, peace, and love
Kat

A while back there was a thread entitled "Discernment" in which there were reminders to all of us to not only to respond to one another directly when posting anything but to keep in mind the non posting members and the guests that are constantly viewing this Forum. Many have just "stumbled" onto Bible Truths and found the invitation to our Forum at the bottom of the page (as I type this there are 14 guests and 9 members viewing). I have seen as many as 26 "guests" viewing at any given time.

Please try to use good judgement and spiritual discernment when posting anything, we know Paula was troubled by many things that were stated here and as the father of a daughter who is of marrying age too I know it did not please me to see some of things said here either, how many guests and non posting members do you think might feel the same way when visiting Bible Truths for maybe the first time?

Let us be aware of our guests and like gracious hosts do what we can to make them comfortable without sacrificing the Truths we share, we cannot always agree but love and charity are more than mere words and require constant vigilance.

His Peace and Wisdom to all of you,

Joe

Robin:
I understood Paula's reaction and was also concerned about guests. I understand that others have different opinions on scripture. I also know that I am here because I agree with Ray's teaching and when things are taught that are different than what Ray teaches I feel that it also represents me as a member of this forum.

I think the forum rules are good and the things that are discussed here should stay in line with what Ray is teaching or at least not be in conflict with what he teaches. That's not a judgment on those who disagree, but I joined this forum because I agree with what Ray teaches. This is the only place I've been able to find that represents what I believe and coincides with what Ray teaches. There are many other places where other beliefs can be discussed.

Thanks,
MG

Deborah-Leigh:
MGI agree with you that our like mindedness and preservation of our bond of peace is our unity in agreement with the teachings revealed to us through Ray.
Also we need to be aware of the Trolls as copied from a post from Joe.

Every now and then we get someone who makes their first post or one of their very first few posts a topic that is very controversial or has the potential to cause emotional responses. This is a time when discernment, patience and caution should be prayed for and exercised. Be on guard!   
 

Troll
 
(v.) (1) To deliberately post derogatory or inflammatory comments to a community forum, chat room, newsgroup and/or a blog in order to bait other users into responding.
(2) To surf the Internet.

(3) To hang around a chat room reading the posts instead of contributing to the chat. (No problem with this at all)

(n.) One who performs any of the above actions.

In Internet terminology, a troll is a person who enters an established community such as an online discussion forum and intentionally tries to cause disruption, most often in the form of posting inflammatory, off-topic, or otherwise inappropriate messages.        (Wikipedia)

His Peace and Wisdom to you,

Joe
