purpose for bible-truths.com; the first link on Ray's site.
This site is a ministry of love. We charge for nothing; we have nothing to sell; we ask for nothing. All we at bibletruths have full-time jobs to support both our families and this site. The site requires thousands of man hours and thousands of dollars annually to operate. It is FREE to all. And our goal is to teach the Truths of God as He has given us understanding.
There is, however, a two-fold commission in teaching the Gospel of Christ:
"...that he [the elders] may be able to [1] entreat with sound teaching as well as to [2] expose those who contradict" (Titus 1:9, Concordant NT).
Unfortunately, many are offended that we would "expose those who contradict" God's Word. They accuse us of being unloving, unkind, or bad-mouthing God's anointed. Untrue. Nowhere do we attack the person or character of those who oppose God's Word. So please don't confuse our mission of "exposing" as an "attack" on the character of a person who contradicts God's Word.
May God richly bless all those who have a real love of the Truth!

mrsnacks, I did not know anyone either when I attended my first conference; this one will be my 3rd. I had conversed with many on the forum, but never met face to face. I was very nervous at first, but everyone welcomed me with open arms as if we had known each other for years.
Come on out and represent the West side with myself (AZ) and Joe (OR) (not sure if he's coming, but he has not missed the last 2).

Patrick,
You are so right, the fellowship is unforgettable, such a peaceful yet exilerating experience we have shared at the last 2 Conferences.
Ray gives an incredible seminar with much meat to digest as well as providing great humor and a generous spirit, the hardest part of the whole time is when we say our goodbyes on Sunday afternoon, I always leave with my spiritual batteries recharged.
The other Joe (Florida) ;)

I forgot his last name :-[ so that's why I included the (OR).
He has beat me out of the "Traveled the Farthest" Award for 2 yrs. :D

AMEN to that Eirik! 8)
Patrick:
countdown; T minus 7 days and counting. I'm ready to get out of the dry heat and enjoy some different weather for a few days.
We had a 30+ degree Delta T (morning low to evening high differential) yesterday.
I'm very excited about the subject/topic (whatever the correct word is).
