Why moved to a restricted section?

Andrew:
I am new to the forum and have never been part of a forum before so this is all new to me. About removing posts that don't adhere to the rules of this forum seems logical, imagine allowing everyone to use the forum as a free for all, say what you want, no restrictions need I say more can you imagine the chaos.

We are here because of Christ nothing else it is He that has dragged us here, I know for a fact I am not here by my own doing.

I have only recently been plucked out of "Babylon" about 2 months ago and have just about finished reading through BT.com for the first time. We have so much to be thankful for, knowing what we know, think for a moment about those that are still lost.

You can tell what type of a tree it is by the fruit that it bears, for a "newbie" I think I will stop here for now.

Grateful to be here

I thought about PMing but then thought if I put it here everyone would know where I am coming from. You know how when you say something and just after it leaves your lips you go wow! did that accurately describe what I intended to say?It happens to me from time to time. I am speaking in reference to my statement about watching to see how we treat one another here. To be honest I was a little lazy in adding the further clarity or qualifying that statement,instead leaving it out there hoping the scripture reference I left would flesh it out for me. The whole chapter of 1st Corinthians 13 fleshes out what I intended to convey with the statement I made.Vs 2 in particular probably comes closest to my actual words which reads AND THOUGH I HAVE THE GIFT OF PROPHECY,AND UNDERSTAND ALL MYSTERIES,AND ALL KNOWLEDGE;AND THOUGH I HAVE ALL FAITH,SO THAT I COULD MOVE MOUNTAINS,AND HAVE NOT LOVE I AM NOTHING.So all I was intended to say was that I am new to this forum and consider it a blessing to be able to fellowship here,yet while I am here I am still watching to see the spirit of the forum. Do we love and support one another when we have disagreements? because if we don't then we are no better than Babylon,because there to they are quick to boot you out when you don't see things there way. I am sure we all can relate to that.Before somebody says or has a negative reaction to that statement. I understand and agree with the rules of the forum and understand that some peoples intentions and or spirit leave no other peaceful alternative other than dismissing them.I am speaking more-so of the spirit of if you don't like it leave or go somewhere else. For many of us I suspect there is no place else to go to.I know for me this is the water in the middle of my dessert experience.I hope this cleared things up although I have that nagging feeling that the last statement I made may have been the proverbial Cow kicking over the pale of milk! If that is the case I am open to receiving a Pm to address it. Thanks God Bless.

Sonofone,

Welcome to the forum.

You are correct we must do it in Love.  But you may get a knee jerk reaction from some as many are confused on what Love is.  As Ray puts it in his kiss of death article it is not all "huggie huggie kissie kissie" as many assume it is. You may also be interested in a transcript by Kat, from Ray's Love Audio.

We also need to remember whatever Truth and knowledge we do have is only in part and some are at different levels than others.

God Bless

Bill
