I'm not a big fan of then internet either. More then once I found myself saying "I hate the internet". But I had to quote you on the weird dream comment. LOL It feels weird to me because I can't understand how these people think. It doesn't seem to be very logical. Sometimes it's way off in left hand field. To use a baseball metaphor. lol

After watching that video I had to look them up again on wikipedia. It's true they were taken down!

I probably relate to you more than I've let on, but I didn't feel like taking the slings and arrows. I appreciate some of the threads you started, but I also knew you'd pay a price. You started one thread where numerous people got real. I felt God's presence so strong. It was one of the best threads I've ever been on.
I've been having a lot of trouble understanding people on this site. I can't even tell who likes me and who hates me. Today I just deleted a person from email. We have been having a misunderstanding... I feel like this place is driving me into such confusion and anger that when I'm trying to concentrate on other things in life, I'm finding those thoughts intruding in on my brain, and distorting my focus! I don't even understand why this is happening to me. Maybe I can't handle these people! 
The first horrific revelation was when I got saved. What is horrific about that? Well, my salvation itself was anything but horrific, but it horrified me when I came to the realization that I had been but one heartbeat or one dying breath away from eternal damnation for my entire life until I got saved. It truly is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God, and God's wrath abode upon me until I repented and got saved.
My second horrific revelation initially caught me totally off guard. That horrific revelation was that the vast majority of people who call themselves "Christians" simply are not. I mean, I had always faced all sorts of hatred/rejection/opposition in the world, but I initially thought that "church" was some sort of safe haven. Boy, was I mistaken. I can honestly say that most of the people in this world who absolutely hate my guts (and there are quite a number of them) are professing "Christians". In fact, some of them are on this website. Anyhow, if you look to Jesus as your/our example, then I think that you will quickly realize that the bulk of the opposition that he faced during his incarnation came at the hands of the religious establishment. You know, the scribes, Pharisees, Sadducees, chief priests, lawyers (those who handled God's laws), etc., etc. In fact, he went so far as to say that his heavenly Father hadn't planted them, and if it's any different today, then it's only gotten worse.
My third horrific revelation is that I now honestly know the truth, and the truth isn't just a concept, but rather it is a person, Jesus Christ, first and foremost. What is horrific about that? Well, as Jesus said, to whom much is given, much is required, and I'll give an account one day for whatever "talents" he's given me and expects back with "usury" or interest. In other words, I've been entrusted with the gospel message, and I'd better be about my Father's business of seeking to save that which is lost. This is what I concern myself with while being consciously aware that I've been sent forth as a sheep among wolves...and that includes all of the wolves in sheep's clothing, of which there are many.
Anyhow, my advice to you is to simply recognize and understand the parameters of this fallen world in which we live. All that glitters isn't gold, and being on a "Christian forum" doesn't guarantee you that you'll encounter only Christians. If you find a few here, then fellowship with them. The others? Well, you can try sharing truths with them (to no avail, usually), or you can just tolerate them, or you can put them on "ignore". I recently put three people here on "ignore" and my quality of life has truly improved since doing so.
For whatever any of this is worth.
Here's one of my favorite shirts to wear because it serves as a reminder to me of what type of world I/we truly live in.
I designed it myself:

P.S.
Christ's opposition did NOT just come from the "religious leaders". In other words, he also faced great opposition from the temple-goers or from those who hypocritically claimed to be awaiting "the Christ" while truly being children of the devil. Well, there he was...THE CHRIST...standing right among them while trying to teach them. Most of them cried out for his death, while others claimed he had a demon, and that's what is truly in the hearts of many professing "Christians" today. They hate Christ, and they'll hate true Christians too, by extension.
There's nothing new under the sun.

It's nice to get other people's opinions on things. It's also great to hear the positive developments in members lives. It has helped me take a closer look at my own behaviour, identifying my irksome character traits that I need to work on. These are all benefits to me, for my development. 🙂

This is the first Christian chat forum Ive joined. Ive found it to be informative and insightful and it has helped me with my discernment. Ive come across many wonderful members here and a few not so wonderful members but they are people just like me, so all I can do is pray for their situation and mine. The best thing I have gotten from this site is coming across someone special when I wasnt looking for one. Every day hes a reminder of God working in my heart. This has made me rethink my time on here because I want to be closer to God and closer to my special friend.

I tried saying it three times fast and it came out like the sound you make when trying to simulate incessant jibber jabber.

Hi MessengerofTruth, see that you are relatively new so a thing you may want to look at is the date of the post you respond to. Some time the post is old like the one you addressed here and if you may be thinking to get an answer it looks as though it could be the person who posted may no longer be on this chat.
