A Short Testimony (Seeker 1)
DWIGHT:
Hi Brother Seeker,
I sent you a PM since you asked about me. I just want encourage you and let you know that none of us will judge you for any sin that you've commited for all have sinned and that includes me brother. This place may be the best medicine that you'll ever experience. Sometimes I find myself down or discouraged, but when I come here, my spirit is so lifted up that I actually feel a part of the ascension of Christ. Our Lord is so wonderful to us and knows our every weakness....but when we are weak, then and only then, can we be made strong. I used to think that I could go it alone, but God has shown me that I need the brothers and sisters desperately....we need each other brother, so take heart and stay the course and God will surely bless you as He has blessed all of us here.
God be with you,
Your brother Dwight
hebrewroots98:
Amen! We all have weaknesses and sins and we will continue to battle it everyday of our lives, and for the rest of our lives. Let Jesus and us help you to carry your burdens brother! ;)

--- Quote from: seeker1 on February 14, 2007, 02:37:34 PM ---To Chris R. Peace Brother! My choice of words was perhaps unfortunate when I said "Argue and sharpen iron against iron". In todays climate the word "Argue" has taken on a very negative connotation of hostility and defensiveness. I use the word in the more positive sense of sharing thoughts and ideas,testing one against another,reasoning an idea out with the goal in mind of mutual benefit to both parties. In the Classical sense of the word it IS possible to "Argue" for hours without ever being defensive or raising one's voice, since both parties are searching for truth rather that simply trying to forcefully impose your ideas on the other person. Once emotions and hostility enter an arguement all hope of reasoning together is lost. The discourse has turned into an infantile shouting match... I learned to "Argue" in the classical sense while serving in the military. It doesn't pay to get hostile and angry when both parties are armed and dangerous!!! LOL In a very real sense we are ALL armed and dangerous because WORDS can injure and destroy just as surely as any weapon of warfare. As a matter of fact I believe that words are MORE REALthan the entire physical universe. Heaven and earth will pass away, but God's word will endure forever. We shall be held accountable for every idle word , etc..

Hello Seeker,
Please understand, on a forum "tone" is not discernable, it is up to the reader to understand if posts are sincere, or hostile, you will have to admit, this can be a daunting task. sometimes we really have to pay close attention to what we write.
Welcome aboard

OK Chris R. Point taken, I am very new to this posting business and computer dialoging. I use a one or two finger hunt and peck typing and am very slow, so the posting I did here is more than all the typing I have done in about the last six months.. I really do want the truth or I wouldn't go through this agony of hunt and peck. I know nothing of posting etiquett so if I make a mistake or step on toes it will most likely be through ignorance or poor word choice.
Dwight sent me a message and I replied to it , but I don"t see it posted anywhere. I suppose I did something wrong when I sent it. I really don't know how to navigate or send messages very well. However if somebody would like to challenge me at" Half life 2" " Quake" " Doom" or any other popular first person shooter, you may find a worthy opponent!!! LOL Until I stumbled on this website that was about all I did on the computer... that brings up a question, anyone have any thoughts on the approprietness of playing such bloody and violent games? Several times I have felt sort of guilty, not so much about the time involved but the violence part.

Hi Seeker1,
When you send mail a copy doesn't stay in your sent mail unless you check the save box in the bottom left hand corner of the email you send. It looks like this:
[X] Save a copy in my outbox
When you get mail. Scroll to the top of the page and look in the upper left hand corner. It will look like this:
Hey, Seeker 1, you have 2 messages, 1 is new.
Click on the hyper link in messages to check your message. On that page you have to scroll down the page to get your message. The more messages you accumulate the more you have to scroll down to get your new message.
Just don't send Longhorn an email he never checks his mail. hint hint!
I hope this helps.
