How do I delete my account?

I also wanted to give my final goodbyes before I leave. Next year I plan on not going on the internet no more. I still struggle with a lot of temptation when I go on the computer and it really bothers me. I believe God is calling me away from it. I believe I am a person who should stay away from it. In fact, I'm starting to believe a lot of similar beliefs according to Amish culture. For some reason every time I come on here I just get a feeling of I don't belong or this isn't me. I remember the first time I ever got involved with online chatting and websites. I remember a friend introduced me and to be honest I wanted nothing to do with the internet. Over the years I feel like I got sucked into it and I used to spend my life on it.

1 John (5:21) Dear Children, keep away from anything that might take God's place in your hearts.

Well..... The internet has done exactly what that verse states. It really took God's place in my heart. I am also starting to take my life very seriously now. I am finished with my past and It is time I start following God and having quiet times and worship with him. I also used to say to myself. I don't belong in this era cause I just can't handle this technology and how it's growing.

So, my final goodbyes to you all. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and May God be with you and bless you. Brothers and Sisters around the world who are being persecuted. Stay strong and firm in your faith. The reward ahead is worth it. Amen

hi tanner i do feel sometimes like this too and emailed the staff here last week to close my account and this is how you do it you have to email roboop
i feel though you should remember that it is gods oath to the protect the week and if you feel that someone is leading someone into temptation then we could do with more people like you here bro to help us to see the error of there ways.
it is sad but true that unfortunately some people are so filled up with bitterness and hatred that they want everyone else to be like them.

just take a little timeout and reflect on gods oath to protect the weak do no wrong and speak the truth brother


i left last week as and rejoined to day under the same user name as i felt i did not want to be around hatred from a few members here i felt that some members here are getting away with laying traps for people to mock them and make them look bad because in there hearts they are bitter and lonely and do not like to see nice people getting along just have a break mate and come back you do not have to close.

i have felt so much pain this week and i have tried so much to help to help these people to see there is good in the world but sadly some people are beyond help but that should not discourage you from wanting to help and talking to some of the very nice people here

have a wonderful life man, and be blessed and stay blessed.

thanky you man you too bro

The truth is that it's not really about the people on here or anything of that matter. I have always had a mental disorder when I came on the computer. I remember making accounts on youtube, facebook, and other websites. I used to make an account and I remember having all this stress come on me like I want to have nothing to do with this. I must have deleted about 2 Facebook accounts and then made them again and came back and deleted them again. I also did away with about 10 maybe even more Youtube accounts cause some of the videos I posed I felt guilty cause in the past I used to do things now that I know are wrong or not pleasing to God. I still have videos of myself exposed over the net and I still have some of my music that I used to sing and be in a band with an old friend I used to hang with. I was lead into the occult I believe and my friends beliefs also had that involved with leading into bad spiritual guides. My past was really rough for me and I just become bothered everytime I come online cause sometimes I search my music and pictures of me that are exposed over the internet when I was high and on drugs and It just bothers me man. People started realizing I had issues when I started deleting accounts and making them over again. Why go through all the work of making videos if your going to delete them? I'll tell you right now if it wasn't for me deleting some of them videos I don't think I would be where I am today. In real life I also had a disorder about talking to people or perhaps getting a job. I have a fear of a lot of things that are going on in this world and I take God's Word very seriously and try to do what I believe is right. I'm about to take my life to the next level in about a few years maybe even more. I plan on living alone in my life for about 3-5 years perhaps stranded somewhere or living as a hermit. I believe this will give me the time I need to grow in my relationship with God and once that is all finished, I will go back to society and preach the word of God and maybe even come back knowing what is going on. I am sorry but this is how I feel. I had these feelings ever since I was in school as a child. I always knew something was different and I knew I was odd compared to a lot of other students. I still realize that I need to do something. Online is not my way to do it. I tried preaching on games I used to play.... For example, Runescape. I sense so much danger online with preaching cause so many false teaching is at stake and many people can just pretend to believe when yet they don't. I am sorry but I believe that technology and the internet has corrupted my mind.

Sometimes we as complex yet simple human beings become overloaded with thoughts, emotions, and feelings. As we get involved with certain things we discover our weaknesses. Although we know the weakness we tend to want to revisit something that we know is not good for us. After doing so we experiance the feeling of guilt because we strive to do what's right. In our youth we tend to make many of the same mistakes over and over again. Sometimes we reach the point, while searching for the answer to theses problems, of going to the extreme. One may think the answer is total disassociation, which is not always a healthy choice. Sometimes in life it takes more time to overcome strongholds. Sometimes one needs to merely step back a little from a situation and not become a total recluse. There is no reason to ridule ones self with guilt as God the father forgives. Free yourself by forgiving yourself. We will always fall. But we must always get up. Running away is not usually the answer. Face your fears and fight. You will become stronger. Problems don't generally go away they have to be solved. I believe that all things can be done through Christ that strengths us. We ALL have issues even those of us that pretend like we don't. We must learn from our mistakes and not be so hard on ourselves. This particular site helps me to socailize and engage with those who believe as I do. It is not perfect only Christ is. LOVE ALWAYS

We all have different paths and roads to learning and living to please God. Especially with spiritual gifts. Not all of us have the same gifts and we should use are gifts wisely. I still have yet to discover actually what my spiritual gifts are. Like I said, in the past I tried ministering to others and trying to lead unbelievers to Christ. Most of that did not work. Perhaps, my gift is not leadership or ministering to others. I went into preaching without really asking God what to do. It seems that I had all this pride built up inside of me and to be honest none of these gifts can happen in are own human strength. Now I am learning to thank God for all the good that comes through me cause I have no control of it. As soon as I have pride I know for certain that I am getting carried away. I am learning now to come humbly before the Lord. In fact, I want to share something with you that I have asked the Lord last night what I should type or write to you guys of what God wants to do in my life.

Let me share with you about Paul's conversion to Christianity. After Paul's conversion, he spent many years preaching for the ministry to which God has called him. This preparation period included (time alone with God) as well as time conferring with other Christians. Often new Christians, in their zeal, want to begin a full time ministry without investing the necessary time studying the bible and learning from God. We need not wait to share Christ with our new friends, but we many need more preparation before embarking on a special ministry, whether volunteer or paid. While we wait for Gods timing, we should continue to study, learn, and grow.

Now then have you ever heard of stories of many ministers or perhaps prophets who took years and time by themselves to learn from God and study before actually going out and preaching and teaching exactly what God wanted them to? There are many people who also go into it without experience. I myself, have learned from that. I recently got saved last late September or October of this year. I've been studying the bible for about 3 1/2 months now. I still have a lot to cover and learn! I speak with my pastor on Tuesdays and yet I also speak to him about the numerous amount of people who are trying to teach me and lead me to Christ. However, without fear, I have told my pastor that I still feel as if God is calling me to spend quiet time with God alone. My pastor was actually quiet astonished by my response. He had told me that he would rather have people rely more on God then himself. In fact, he is proud when many people actually tell him that they would rather seek or hear Gods response rather than his first. My pastor also told me that he is still working on forming an attitude like John the Baptist. As Jesus Christ grows greater he will grow lesser. My pastor has demonstrated humbleness to me and is also not afraid to tell me about his past and struggles as well. He to has told me about his porn addiction and his struggle with lust in the past.

As I started telling him about the numerous people who wanted to minister me I also told him that I am becoming confused at the numerous teachings of the people and how they are different according to other peoples opinions or perhaps what they believe. Then he started talking to me about the quiet time with God every morning or even before you go to bed. PUT GOD FIRST! ALWAYS! I still speak with pastor on Tuesdays and I am still being discipled. But, I still feel that God wants me to go to him first and then speak with pastor of anything that I may be confused with. I have also spoke with a friend of mine who was the one who gave me the bible and preached to me and when I was saved. He told me to listen to pastor and keep notes and understanding of what he will say. I think this was before or after my first day at church. God is my first priority and pastor is the 2nd person I talk to because he demonstrates to me and comforts me because he shares with me some of the things he has gone through and any questions I have that God hasn't quiet answered yet I share with pastor.

Now then as I said earlier how I plan on leaving...... It is what I believe the Lord wants me to do. I have struggled and still experience strong temptations when I am online. Some of you say to flee from that temptation. Well then, Isn't what I am about to do regard that? The bible also states that If someone believes in something that they should not do which in term is wrong and yet they still do it, It counts as a sin regardless of what the bible may state. For example, if someone believes that they shouldn't watch a certain show and some people may tell them well this show isn't necessary wrong or it isn't written in scripture that it is wrong. The person should still accept that persons belief because the Lord may be working different in that persons life. Romans chapter 14 explains this.....

So what do you say now? Will you accept that I truthfully believe that God is calling me away from the internet? Will you also accept that I don't believe that It is right for me to be on here? Please understand that this has nothing to do with any of you or that I am not leaving this site just because I don't like it or believe that it isn't good or helping me. I plan on leaving the whole web! Having nothing to do with on here. That includes games, email, and so on.....

God bless, Tanner. If you ever feel led to return, there'll be a space reserved for you.

Perhaps one time I may come back in the future. I don't know. But for now I still feel that strong urge and calling from God to separate from it.

Terribly unfriendly for a Christian site DELETE ME

You've made one post and been here at most one day and you think you know this community?

She sent me a friends invite. I noticed at the time she had no posts so I explained to her I don't take on 'friends' until I see a few posts because there are a few looloos here on CC that give Jesus a bad name. And hoped she'd understand. Oh well.
Ps, I didn't even send a refusal hoping she'd post a few.

Didnt give the friendly pips a chance to welcome you though.

So, THAT'S WHY I never got an "invite" from you...............sigh...........WELL JUST BE THAT WAY FELLA!

Yeah, maybe that way we'll stay friendly with each other

You prove his point.

No. No, I don't.

As you prove TinTin's point?

(Hard to believe this is a four-year-old post.)

How is Tintin proving the other guy's point? I think Tintin's question is a valid one. You DON'T get to know the community here after only ONE day. :/
