I may not be an "every-dayer" but I will continue to return as the Spirit leads me. We don't know what threads forumists may weave. Some form a tangled web, others a wonderful tapestry.

I may not be an "every-dayer" but I will continue to return as the Spirit leads me. debrakay, I was on this forum for years before I posted my first time. My purpose here was to learn perhaps a little deeper from other believers. And I have learned much in my silence/lurking. I also saw a lot of very poor witness here to those viewers/seekers watching. It gets like we forget there is an audience watching in our family quarrels. I avoid those with a short fuse when possible. Pausing before posting. I also realized I do not have to post to learn, or get a pat on the back. I learn more from so many view points, and suggested authors/links etc. Like a silent movie with no pictures, just closed caption....

Guest kingdombrat Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 There's a forum now I regret ever participating in. It's supposed to be Christian based and Doctrinal based upon Scripture. But in reality, it's actually Denominational based. The influx is majority Baptist. And if you're not either Armenian or Calvin, License to Sin or max ultimate Grace, they will literally falsely report members till they get banned. I once was tempted to create a new account and go at them, but if those people think they're the only ones getting to Heaven, I'll bide my time and wait to see if any actually make it there. God will handle it. But don't get me wrong, I had many moments where I desired to reach through the pc screen and strangle the little punks.

Part of these come from a Senior forum I joined a week ago and part of them from a Christian forum I joined a couple of days ago. Maybe it's time to admit I am not someone who needs to be on a forum, discussing anything other than recipes and the weather. I give up. Dont give up. Shine the light from jesus to others here. Darkness is passing awsy. The daylight from the lord is coming. We can show light. You are needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And leave it to the holy spirit to open them up to that word of truth. I hope they make it there and all of us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been my life experience, that whatever I get an urge to do while angry--whatever it is--always turns out to have been a bad idea afterwards, and I regretted it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That must have been a good day and I said something "Worthy". I often do not say anything because many of the different posts are far over my head and while the discussions are interesting they are too deep and too intellectual. I have never felt the need to satisfy questions of those topics that have no bearing on my salvation and my servitude to the Lord. But of course, that is just me. Others want to find the answers to questions that are so many times unanswerable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
