Bible Note: Greetings 2nd Samuel 22! Thank you for citing Acts 11:15-16. As for my username "Makarios"... "The Greek word 'makarios' (mak-ar'-ee-os) means 'blessed', 'well off', and 'fortunate' (Ex: Matthew 5:7)." (Taken from my User Profile) For my first 1,780 posts, I used "Nolan Keck", which is my real name, for my Username. From there and up to post# 1,920, I used "Nicodemus" as a Username. But then I changed it back to simply "Nolan Keck". Many fellow Forum members graciously e-mailed me, and I appreciated that! But at the same time, I began to recieve many e-mailings from people of whom I had never met on the Forum, asking me questions.. So I again saw the need to have an 'alias', and I chose "Makarios", to change my Username for the last and final time, at around post# 3,100. I chose "Makarios" as a Username because I have been greatly blessed by the Lord during my short lifetime! I like your Username, 2nd Samuel 22! Blessings to you, and let us continue in praise, lifting our hands to the Lord! Makarios |
