Title: G'day from Australia
Post by: the goldfields on June 16, 2009, 07:10:00 AM
Hi everyone, I just thought I would introduce myself!
I probably won't post very often but I want you to know that I am here, reading your posts and praying for you all.
I came to know of bible-truths.com in 2004 when I actually typed "bible truths" in the search engine and since then have read the articles/emails/discussions and listened to the audio conferences/bible studies.
In the beginning I had a hard time digesting some of the things I was reading (the enmity of my carnal mind) but I remember being so hungry for truth that I just kept studying and I thank God now for opening my eyes and ears to receive what He had prepared for me in Ray's writings.
I have been reading the forum so long now that I feel like I know some of you and I want to thank you all for the things you have been sharing.
It has been extremely comforting to know of others that are experiencing the same workings of God in their lives.
I pray our heavenly Father will continue His mysterious work of conforming you to the image of His Son (so that all men will be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth) and that you all may be one even as the Father and the Son are one.
Peace be to you all.
Sincerely, Sam.

Hi Sam.  I'm happy to meet you in this way.  Thanks for stepping out of the 'lurk' at least long enough to greet the brethren.   ;D  It's a blessing to know you are there.  God be with you.

Hi Sam,

G'Day to you mate, i had some Aussie Chopper Pilot friends, a few years ago in the SF Bay Area. Great beer drinking buddies, and always talking about the outback.

Don't be a stranger anymore, please drop us a few lines when possible.

Hi Sam,

Nice of you to introduce yourself  :)
I know there are those who just like to lurk and not post, but I hope you will consider joining in and posting some.  It is such a privilege to have this place to fellowship and as long as it is here we have to take advantage of it.  So jump in on some of the discussions, with your familiarity with what Ray teaches your prospective would be appreciated.

mercy, peace and love
Kat

To love a person is to learn the song
That is in their heart,
And to sing it to them
When they have forgotten

Welcome Sam

G'day Sam! Iam Pua Aloha ( flower of love) from the Big Island in the state of Hawaii. Just want to say that I really enjoyed visiting your country. A couple of years ago I was led by the Lord to leave my job, leave my family(except my youngest son Benjamin), leave my community, leave my state, and leave my country and go to Australia. I desired to go wherever the Lord said to go, and He made the way; I'd never been there, don't know anyone there, didn't know what to do when I got there, etc. My son Ben is an avid skateboarder and there aren't any decent skate parks here on the Island,but in New South Wales there is! But for me, I went on a spiritual journey that prepared me to recieve the Truth about the Gospel. Later on, I discovered this web site, like you, hungry for the Truth. Through extensive studying that Ray has accomplished, I too have learned so much and continue to learn. We are now back home on the island, and Ben is almost 17 now. It's really exciting to be a child of God isn't it mate?! Cheers to you and I am happy to see Australia represented on this web. Aloha Sam, Go with God! Pua Aloha

hi sam,
i apologize for not giving you a warm welcome when i first visited your thread. i also listened to your music and enjoyed it very much. i listened to several of the other song links on the site. i have never been to australia, but my husband lived in a little town on the coast between geelong and melbourne.

again, please accept my apology for not giving you a welcome as one of our new brothers in Christ, after i initially read your intro.
