Bible Question: John Pilgrim: I need your help. I seem to be having flashbacks. It's them troublesome deja vu's all over again, as Yogi Berra used to say. But you can help me, I'm sure, by answering a simple question. Are you, who is posting now as John Pilgrim, the former John Reformed? --Hank |
Bible Answer: Dear Hank, The last thing I want is to stir up controversy over personalities. Suffice it to say that I informed Lockman of who I am before I applied for membership. I used the same email address as well. I'm sure if you contact them they will will answer in a way that is best for the forum as a whole. I have learned much from my first experience as a user. In fact I was certain that I had matured as a result of 1700 and more posts. My fatal flaw was my naievete. You ask me to be frank regarding my past, but in the past my openess was used against me. Anyone who has read John Pilgrim's posts, who knew me before, has no need to ask who I am. It is my hope that an un-biased perusal of my offerings will inform the reader that I am not in the business of shoving my doctrine down anyone's throat. What I am about is defending the faith once delivered to the saints. If that sounds "holier than thou", I aplogize. I don't mean for it to be taken that way. Have you ever been recieved the "left foot of friendship" from brothers whom you love? If not, I pray you never will. I can tell you, it hurt more than I thought it would. Keeping my eye on the prize and forgetting that which lies behind I remain Your Humble Servant and Loving Brother in Christ, John |
