knowledge?
Joseph:
I was wondering where Ray gets all his knowledge? aions, how did the teachings of eternal punishment come to be? Most of all I just want to learn what Ray has without being lead astray. Can someone give me some sources thanks and Godbless.
Craig:
Joseph,
Have you had a chance to read Ray's writings? Especially the Lake of Fire Series, and the letters to Hagee and Kennedy?

Hi Joseph,
Glad you have joined us :)
Your question is what most of us have asked ourselves at one time or other.
Ray has been called of God to be a teacher. He studies very hard hours upon hours, but most importantly guided by the Holy Spirit. And through his studies God reveals things to him in the Scripture. That is how he has come to the understanding what he has, not by just divine revelation, but throught lots and lots of hard work.
Here is a link the a categorized list of Ray emails, at the very top you will see the heading 'About L. Ray Smith.' These are emails inwhich he tells different things about himself.

Hi Joseph!
Welcome newbie from a fellow newbie. "Without being led astray" now that's a good one. Let me tell you how I judge the situation.
My experience and yours of the Babylon, which I believe you have decided to come out of or you wouldn't be on this forum, will no doubt be very similar. Correct me if I'm wrong please because I wouldn't like to wrong anyone.
The pastor or minister, gets up on his preaching stool every Sunday and quotes one verse of Scripture and then builds up a very emotional story of his very own warped thinking with total disregard to all other Scriptures that might or might not contradict. At the end of it he waits for everyone to clap and say among themselves; "What a marvelous Spirit filled sermon that was." and he steps down like a proud peacock. And of course there is the other type where everyone goes to sleep.
Now I ask you to compare it with Ray's teaching to put your mind to rest peacefully. Every question asked is answered with a Scripture, that's God talking not Ray. And every Scripture is backed by a witness, that is, another Scripture not Ray. To me this is God speaking and explaining His Word to me and I cannot argue with God anymore than you or Ray can, whereas with Babylon there is a mountain that could justifiably be strongly contested.
This my brother is the difference and this is the reason why I say you will not be mislead with Ray's teachings.
I hope that helps.
God bless you.
Love in Christ Jesus.
Roy
