Hi Darren.
I don't want you to take this wrong, but I am compelled to speak my heart to you. I've gotten to 'know' you over the time we've been at B-T forum and consider you a friend and brother. What you have shared here over time has been a blessing to me, and I've learned a lot from both reading responses and searching for answers to questions you've raised.
But in all truth, I would hate to see you move from seeking God's truth into 'stuff to compare it too.' From my heart, I just don't think you are ready to do this. I would pray for you to continue in the Word of God we have , under Ray's teaching. I don't have time or reason to do these things, and I truly believe you don't either.
Consider what I've said in love, and follow the Spirit of God.
Amen brother.
These things are interesting for their historical content, and thats it. What we have in scripture is sufficient for our edification and instruction.
Hi Darren and Dave,
Thanks for looking out for me. I feel the same way about you guys and everyone on BTF. Thats why i put that warning. I really should of made it alot stronger because some of the things on that website contain some Truths but also has contradictions to the Word. And that is the best/worst way Satan can get someone to stray from the Truth.
I appreciate the concern, but I've already read most of the stuff on that website before ever even finding the BT website and Rays teachings and coming to the Truth. This was even before i fell in the with the WWCG teachings. Everything i read before coming to the Truth only reinforces or makes more concrete the Truth that i've learned.
That is why im a strong advocate about reading other stuff to confirm the Truth you've learned. Like Ray says you cant learn one thing without knowing the other. With WWCG i learned the physical of the Word, with Ray i've learned the spiritual. That's why i
absolutely love what Ray put at the bottom of his LOF series installment 14 after Let Me Know. I knew before coming to BT who the beast(s) was/are from reading stuff by Ellis Skolfield on his site.(Thinking back on it, he kind of reminds me of Ray, the way he wrote).
Before reading anything on that site or any site where it claimed it had something to do with God, I would pray to God first before reading it, asking Him not to let me fall for the crap (being nice here) that i may be reading and to have His spirit guide me. I earnestly prayed that. I can safely say that I never fell for anything on that site or any other (except for the WWCG teachings, which i must say speak alot of Truth but not all the Truth). Now that i think about it I really didnt do that with Rays papers. I just knew it was true. Then the Lord kept speaking to me saying that i should question if Ray was right. So like i did with all the others i tested it and WHAM all the stuff he wrote was right. I thank God For Jesus giving Ray his spirit and in plain speech revealing His Word.
I read the Book of Enoch from that site and after coming to the Truth, I can see some faults in it. I didnt know then though.
To finish this I want to say thank you for being concerned and you guys are right for people whos faith and knowledge of his Truth, this could be a dangerous thing to do, but then again I didnt have much knowledge before going to all those sites.
To God be the glory,
Anthony
ps. I will warn everyone again---that website is NOT for everyone!!! Be careful what you ask for because curiosity can kill the cat.
This is were I give all thanks to God because if He had predestined me to fall for what i was reading i would of.
