Bible Note: I can only respond from my perspective. I've been a Bible student and a christian most all my life, but I must admit I've had to do more Bible studying in these last few months than I had in the previous 5 years. Especiallly tough for me is the controversial issues that plague Christianity. Again, since these issues are real and we all on the Forum believe strong in the Bible, we all gain and continue to learn a great deal. I have a goal of becoming a deacon in the near future and a long range goal of becoming an elder so I find this Forum to be tremendously beneficial to me as a "training ground" and get me some experience as well as the opportunity to grow in confidence and handling God's Word. I'd recommend that you stick with the Forum for similar reasons. I think you'd be benefitted also. But regardless of your decision, God bless in your struggle and growth toward the Lord. --Rowdy |
