I May Have Joined Too Soon Here
Hi Folks,
The site was referred to by Micheal the Disciple from City Data Forum. I had joined and then read the rules, and so that is why I believe I may have joined too soon.
The topics that I have shared could be seen as divisive, but mostly, they are just ignored because usually, believers do not have an answer for the hard questions where scripture reproves that which believers had never questioned before.
Of course, there were some topics that some to a few will reply, ignoring the scriptural reproofs as if it doesn't apply. I know I cannot convince them as it is on God to cause the increase. If believers do not want to accept what scripture says in the King James Bible as lining up with the rest of scripture, then He helps me to let it go. Jesus is Lord.
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.....24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
So... I am leaning on the Lord Jesus Christ to share the truth in love as it is on Him to lead those that hear to take the matter to the Lord Jesus in prayer for confirmation.
John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
May God continue to prune every one of us to bear more fruit till He brings us Home.

Re: I May Have Joined Too Soon Here
Divisive? Ha. You don't know these forums very well do you? 
There are many different viewpoints here. Some are agnostic. Some burnt by hurt and emotional pain. Other's continue to have Apostolic beliefs, just do not feel bound by churchiosity, but love Jesus with all their hearts.
Join the club. You will find that many here have already faced and answered the "hard questions".

As long as you are following Jesus, and don't take things personally. You will be alright here.
And if someone breaks the rules and insults you or is rude, just report the post. The Admin team will handle it.

Be patient, Enow. It may take more than 3 posts from you to get us sufficiently challenged and straightened out.

I was referring to my postings in the past in other forums, but "Which Bible To Rely On" does contain several topics within that one thread for the reasons why the KJV is the Bible to rely on for the meat of His words to discern good and evil in these latter days where faith is hard to find.

Okay.
Sometimes I wonder if asking the hard questions directly may seem like creating strife when scripture is given to edify and to reprove so as He leads me, I hope to do both so as to give precedent for the hard question.
Thanks for the welcome.
