I need some help with a question.

Dean,
When I read your post my heart went out to you. You don't need to feel stupid, or embarassed, or a fool. You don't need to "admit" to everyone that you are a fool. Instead tell whoever asks that you are learning new things from studying the Scriptures, and things that didn't make sense before are beginning to make sense. The purpose of life is becoming clearer, and the future is looking brighter and brighter the more you learn. You see a happy future for mankind in the long run. :D Who knows maybe they'll be curious enough to ask you what you're learning. ;)
By the way, none of us know anything on our own! But if our Lord chooses to give you eyes to see and ears to hear, then REJOICE!! You are one of the FEW!
When you first learn the truth it can seem like a heavy burden because noone around you understands, or even cares about something so earthshattering to you. But as Jesus often told His disciples, do not be afraid. DO NOT BE AFRAID. That is part of the message. It is all in His hands. He has it all undercontrol. Dean, you are not responsible for saving anyone. He will take care of it all.
Enjoy what you are learning. Live a godly life the best you can. TRUST in Him.
Leave the rest to Him! ;D ;D ;D
With Christian love,
Cindy

Diana, what you and Kat said has got me wondering as well. The thought of us living both physically and spiritually at the same time (or as my little guys says "when we die we will be invisible and be able to go through walls as Yeshua did") is an exciting concept if indeed that will be the case. (What did Yeshua say about Gods'creation being as many as the stars in the heavens? ) (Ha, I actually won a 'star certificate' from a radio station that I could name after anyone, so I named it after good ole mom and sent her the 'copywritten coordinates'and named the star Judith ... ;) ???
Dearest Dean,
Don't be so hard on yourself brother, we have all made fools of ourselves at some point in the babe way of thinking in the past! We are here to catch you if and when you fall my friend; you are not alone! (We are your new family...God has made us unified in the Same Spirit...let this comfort you!) We have all felt as though we couldn't fit the pieces together to the great puzzle of our existence, but, be patient and wait on Him to show you in His timing. Dean, you have a sweet and humble heart; as for the ones that you said were arguing...I think that the intentions are not to hurt one another, but to get overly passionate about our positions at times. (I hope that I did not offend you by doing this?) You're doing great; so don't let Satan steal your joy. You are growing already as I can see it :D

Thank you so much for the encouragement. I think going through difficult times will make us stronger in the end. My former church took a vote and disfellowshipped me but I won't let that bother me now. Among Baptists what I believe now is considered heresy and differences of opinion are not tolerated. However, I plan to move forward and let God lead me.
Sincerely,
Dean

Dear Dear Brother,
Do not be swayed in every direction of the winds, Take time, read what is written on www.bible-truths.com Compare everything you read with scripture, use a good program like E-sword, Blue letter bible, Look for yourself, We cannot lead you anywere, But...BUT..once you have a truth..YOU HAVE IT!...God gives it to you.
No one hear will try and persuade you to do one thing, We cannot convince one single person of anything, Nor do we wish to....Read for yourself, find if these things be true..Dont take my word for it, Or that of anyone here, You must search for yourself.
May God give you wisdom in your search for truth.
Sincerely,
Chris R
