Getting back to my First Love

[stephen]

Hi there, I'm Steve from South Africa.

What a blessing it's been to discover "Bible-truths". I was really beginning to think that maybe I was just upstream, difficult and anti-establishment. Not that I'm rowdy or arguementive but any sane minded person can only occupy a pew for so long listening to "touch not God's annointed pastors" brain washing their members with never ending lies on tithing, healing, positive confession, properity and and and.... If you have financial difficulties it's because you don't tithe. If you're sick it's because you have sinned and opened the door to tangle-foot, and you don't receive your healing because you don't have enough faith. Things go wrong because you confess negatively. They've have their formulas so smartly worked out it's a wonder they even need God.

Unfortunately my wife was persuaded by their gimmicks and decided to set up house on her own where so she can serve money and God(in that order) without my negative influance as it seriously effected her annointing and walk with God. I have since found out that this was on the sound advice of her new pastor.

But God is good and I came across Ray's site. I now have the confirmation I needed that that inner check I've had all along was not just my imagination. I have 2 others interested in bible-truths and we're starting a bible study group.

Life suddenly feels good again, not that I should ever have doubted. PRAISE THE LORD!

Hello Steve

I have no doubt Mystery Babylonian teachings courted your wife into betrayal and separation from you.  Babylon does not know God nor His Power. They despise the Word of God and they do not teach God's good news either.

One day your wife will see the Truth and she too will know the difference between deception, lies and idolatry as contrasted by Truth, Faithfulness, Grace and Mercy.

Welcome to the Forum.

Peace be to you

Welcome Steve,
I have been involved in this forum for a very short while but have been an ardent reader for nearly 1 year.  The many that contribute have done much to aid me in my moment-by-moment walk with my LORD. You will have great support and will be challenged to dig deeper into the Scriptures as you spend more time in this forum and in Bible-Truths.com.
I have just witnessed (in the church that I came out of 2 years ago) two events that so profoundly point out the wickedness in the church system. As I think back, there are so many others that come to mind that I really did not realize at the time. I think you have coined a new word for the operation of the Babylonian System and that is the word "gimmicks".
I will pray for your Bible Study and for you.
In HIM,
Rick Ingram

Those of us here have been through the church and know very well of which you speak.  It is so wonderful to have your eyes opened and freed from their deceitful ways. 
I hope you will enjoy the fellowship here as a place to escape from the world, so to speak. 
There is much here, so look around and check things out.
