Many of us have shared our testimonies, so I thought it would be fun to do this poll.
As for me, I had been asking God to show me His truths for many years. I even wished I had grown up knowing absolutely nothing about the Bible, and I wondered what I would've believed if I had come to it without a preconceived ideology, with God's Spirit as my only teacher.
I also like playing with color! :)

Can we add a category for "I believed the truths and tried not too" ;D? Doesn't that sound like a ridiculous thing to do?
Done! ;D

I was raised in a Southern Baptist church since I was born. I was never taught anything but what they teach, but there were always times that I wondered why God was putting me through 'tough times.' I had always believed that if you did right you would be blessed and have a wonderful life. I went to seminary, and it was in seminary that I learned that tithing was not Scriptural for the New Testament church. This caused me to wonder about other teachings. It was eight years later that I found Ray's site. As I read his papers, I was angry, not at Ray's writings, but angry toward the church for teaching lies. I was seeing the truth for the first time in my life. My wife keeps asking how I can believe this 'trash.' I know that God is not choosing everyone, but I still am amazed at how easy these truths were for me to see, and she cannot see them. I look in the Scriptures, and yep, there they are. She looks in the Scripture, and nope, there they ain't. Amazing...
