Title: Newbie
Post by: Marky Mark on January 14, 2009, 06:53:26 PM
Hello all,

    To all of the fine people here at bible truths forums I would like to extend my warmest greetings to one and all.My name is Mark and I live in Pittsburgh Pa.(Go Steelers). Like many of you, coming out of babylon is a long and painful process, in which my Father from above deemed necessary[thank-you Father] with, of course, me kicking and screaming all the way ::). I started to read Rays material from bible truths .com almost two years ago and have never been so grateful for something in all of my life. My spiritual awakening has been a revelation on my heart and mind,Praise God, for with out Him, I am nothing.
    I have to say that over the past number of months reading the forums and soaking in the wisdom that has been bestowed upon many of you has been a big help in my understanding of scripture and I just would like to say thank-you,so I will, Thank-You. Also,since being in stealth mode reading all these months I feel that a lot of you I already know,kinda strange,but thats the way I feel ;D.
     So in closing, I will try my best to post and reply,my typing skills are sorely lacking,( meaning that some times I feel that It would be faster to send my thoughts on ahead on first class postage, so my typing skills can catch up later) :D

     Peace...

  Marky Mark

Welcome, Marky.

I like your introduction.  If you, like I did, lurked silently for two years, you should be able to jump right in.  I'm so glad that our Father has brought you into the fold.

Hello Marky Mark

An official welcome to the forum. Hope to see you more, now that you came out.

Quick question. Are/were you some kind of a rapper (say maybe in your past life)? Just curious. Marky Mark sounds like a rap name  ;D

Hi Marky Mark.  Love the tag!  My daughter was SO into New Kids on the Block.  He has since turned into Mark Wahlberg! (Just some trivia for the uninformed :D)

Welcome and glad you are a seasoned veteran on BT and forum. Your posts will be helpful to us oldies and newbies!

Pittsburg is one of my fav cities...(I used to live in Beaver Falls).
Are you getting the Arctic blast?? Michigan was colder than Alaska yesterday!

Marky, when I was YOUNGER I lived there.  Sorry I didn't mention that.  UGh, Pittsburg was just a steel city.  A few years ago went to a Carnegi Mellon football game, and a Pirates game on a weekend get away---couldn't believe the view coming down that hill to the confluence---It was breathtaking!! Pittsburg has made a big turn around since I had seen it last.

Now, to important matters....the Steelers-my 2nd most fav. team.  Normally, I always root for them BUT my son in law was born and lived in Baltimore for over 24 years.....so around him I have to feign interest in the Ravens.  Living in the Detroit area you know I am a proud proud Lions fan! :-[ :-[ :-[ :'(

My next door neighbor's son is Kellen Davis on the Bears.  This is his rookie year but he has been playing...so keep an eye on him...I knew him when he was just a kid!
