Hello Everybody, I thought that saladking would be a good name for me because whenever I'm with a gathering of friends or family at Christmas time or whenever, I usually help myself to about 90% of the salad, while the others eat the other 10% between themselves. Also, my real name David and it is such a common name.
I am from the South Island in New Zealand. I have been aware of Ray's site for years now. And have been aware of these forums for over 2 years .
I have read most of Ray's essays over the years, and am now reading through the Lake of Fire series for the third time.
I first discovered the good news about the eventual salvation of all in late 2001. I actually first discovered it through reading about Charles Sagle. I left Church for good over 2 years ago.
I'm the only one that I know of in Dunedin that actually believes that Jesus is the Saviour of the world.
I am a single Middle aged man, and live on my own.
Gosh, I can't get any smileys to work. I'm not very computer literate. Oh well it doesn't really matter.

Hi David,
Welcome to our church fellowship, of sorts. I know there is at least one other Kiwi here, but I'll let her introduce herself. I'm not sure where in NZ she lives.
My name is Steve. I live in the States now, but I used to live in NZ also. I never got to the South Island, but I saw the ferry almost every day. I lived in and around Wellington - Porirua and Paraparaumu most recently, along the Kapiti coast, while I worked for the RNZPD.
I hope you find a warm welcome and a safe place to be yourself here. I know that I have.
Cheers mate,
Steve

Thanks Folk,
I have been trying to login again for quite a while. I always have my computer on high security, and it seems that that was stopping me. I am on again now that I changed my settings to medium security.
I'm preparing for a wasp kill this evening. I have an crack under my eves that leads to a nest in my ceiling somewhere. It's showery and wet today.

David is not a common name...it's a royal name that just happens to be shared by 1/3 of all westerners.
Once I was in Thailand and making my first visit to Chiang Mai. When I exited the little airport, there were 6 people holding up signs looking for travellers they were sent to take under their wings. Two of them were looking for "David". That's proof that 1/3 of all western males are named David.
I picked the wrong one. ;D
(for smilies, just click one above the message box and it will appear as text wherever your cursor is. It'll be visible as a smilie when the post is sent.) :) ;) :D ;D >:( :( :o 8) ??? ::) :P :-[ :-X :-\ :-* :'( See? Now I'm just showing off.
Welcome to the forum.

Hi David,
Welcome to the forum. I, too, am a big salad eater, so I guess you could call me the "saladqueen." :)
Looking forward to reading your contributions to the forum.

Hi SaladKing. We get NZ-here alot, many just introduce themselves and then never post again. ??? Something is moving down there I think spiritually- I love hearing how God works the same all around the world. Glad you are on board. Welcome.

Hi Heidi and Johnny,
I have read on these forums some time ago that there is a fellowship group that meets someplace in Auckland. :)
whoopee, God's blessings to you. ;D
I can overdo it on eating salad. Although I think that my stomach can stand a monstrous family sized bowl full without getting an upset tum, if I eat no grains at the same meal, and nothing else either for that matter.
