Hello and God bless! I'm a new member here, and look forward to the real truths of the Bible. The Bible never really made sense to me until I found this site, that is until I found out I was a slave to false doctrines! Anyway, I look forward to the learning and fellowship that I know I'll get here! 
Hello Imabeliever and Welcome,
Amen, to your statement that the Bible didn't make sense to you prior to your arrival to this Site. I concur with you. Of course God didn't intend for everyone to fully understand his truths. I don't believe that everyone at this Forum fully understands every one of Ray's teachings, including myself, but the things I do understand are liberating. Prior to my arrival at this Site, I had already excepted the teaching that eventually everyone would be saved and that Jesus came to save the Lost, except at that time, I wasn't positively sure that Satan and his Demon's would be, now I know better.
Continue to read, listen, study, ask questions, reflect and meditate on Ray's Study Articles. Read over several times his Article regarding The Myth of Man Having a Free Will, because as Ray states, the false Doctrine of Free Will leads to all other Biblical Heresy. Once understanding that we don't have Free Will helps us understand other important truths. The Bible gives some good examples of those who didn't and couldn't have Free Will; ie- Peter, Paul, Pharaoh, Adam & Eve, etc. Although Ray gives countless examples of those that didn't have free will and why, one of my favorite reasoning(s) is where Ray says, Are we capable of Free Willing ourselves out of death, " try and free will yourself, out of that one".
Glad you have embraced this Fellowship and looking forward to your comments and reflections in the day's to come and yes, Imabeliever too, by the Grace of God.
Your Brother, Samson.
