Post by: markpillay on July 09, 2007, 11:38:40 AM
Hi Guys

I've been reading Rays articles since February 2006. I then spent a long time searching out everything for myself.

Well I am at the forum now and look forward to participating.

Greetings from sunny South Africa.

Love in Christ to all

Mark

Hello Mark

Welcome to the Forum.

It is wonderful that you have been studying the teachings of Ray ahead of joining in the discussions here. That puts you in a good place to participate and share, edify, encourage and exhort us as we all hone our skills in understanding the dazzling truths of Christ given to us freely here in BT.

Peace to you

Arcturus :)

By the way Iris, what is the red streak going across Iris' message from right to left.
Did something not pass the censor?  "smile"

If you left click your mouse and drag across the red bar (Iris's post), you will see it says "Welcome to the forum" in blue!

And this is another "WELCOME TO YOU, MARK"

WELCOME MARK,
I have been reading since NOV 05. It is like re-learning everything but I praise the Lord Jesus Christ for giving me ears to hear.
Praise be to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Hi Guys

Im 32 years old and married for 7 years to my beautiful wife Mandy (http://img400.imageshack.us/img400/4862/000010gx6.jpg)
We dont have any kids yet. I grew up in the Worldwide Church of God where I was baptised in 1996. I left there soon after being baptised and over the years I've vsited many churches. The last time I was in church I ended up having a strong disagreement with them over tithing. I left there being sure that church attendance for me was over. About a month later I mistakenly linked to Ray's site and God confirmed to me that my days in Babylon were over. Funny thing is, I used to call the churches 'Babylon' ever since I became a christian. Of course I never understood why.  I would go from one to the other leaving each one feeling more and more disgusted.

The spiritual understanding I received from God through Ray and others has set me gloriously free.

Once again, thanks for the warm welcome.

Mark

WELCOME MARK

Great to share the Word and God's revelations

(Col 4:3 CLV)  praying at the same time concerning us also, that God should be opening for us a door of the word, to speak the secret of Christ, because of which I am bound also,

(Col 4:4 CLV)  that I should be making it manifest, as I must speak."

(Col 4:5 CLV)  In wisdom be walking toward those outside, reclaiming the era,

(Col 4:6 CLV)  your word being always with grace, seasoned with salt, perceiving how you must answer each one."

Hey Mark!!!

It's nice to see you on here.  I've been wondering what you've been up to.  How is life treating ya?  Can you make it to the conference in Alabama?

God bless,
