Sorry, my mental disorder is apparently giving me issues. I don't even know my way around this site well yet. I'm trying to do missionary work, why are yall making it so difficult?
You are not familiar with the distinction this forum makes about Christianity. This is NOT a TYPICAL Christian Forum as most of those on the web. It is not driven or constrained by doctrine or dogma as most of the others are. That would explain your surprise at such a seemingly unwelcoming reception here. It has nothing to do with your status as a devout Christian or your missionary zeal.

Great points Mystic
Yeah, we're not about waving hands in the air and chanting Hallelujah hundreds of times, smiling and patting each other on the back. It's more about thought, philosophy, ideas, and perceptions. In fact, this might just be the complete antithesis of modern churches. We're not here to agree, but to discuss.

Bingo!
We all get irritated with each other because we all have different perceptions and opinions and are not afraid to stick up for them
You can proselytize in here if you want. It seems pretty pointless to me since nearly everybody that posts in this forum is a Christian.
No, for a lot of the Christians who post here, it's not pointless at all. Now it would be if all of the "Christians" who post here were to acknowledge that those of us they are trying to convert to Christianity already are Christians.
I pray you will be inspired by this simple message, I say this in the name of Jesus Christ..
The world turns to hold us down, God is here to lift us up. There are times that we will fall but those are only moments that we lose focus on that which is most important. God I ask that you give strength to that person that is reading this letter to keep focus on you so they don’t fall so often.
Hope all is well! I say this in the name of Jesus Christ!

Yep
People tend to judge by a denominational affiliation rather than just accepting someone’s word about their own personal beliefs which quite often is initiated/developed by being under those religious hierarchical structures and organisations, and that is about the “bonded” “devoted” “set apart” “circumcised” state referred to in Scripture, we are to look forward to the free/rest state
And part of that is not judging any on either of those “states”
Gal 3:26**For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
Gal 3:27**For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
Gal 3:28**There is neitherJew nor Greek, there is neitherbond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
Gal 3:29**And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Christ Has Set Us Free
Gal 5:1**Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Gal 5:2**Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
Gal 5:3**For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
Gal 5:4**Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
Gal 5:5**For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
Gal 5:6**For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
Gal 5:22**But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Gal 5:23**Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
Gal 5:24**And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
Gal 5:25**If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Gal 5:26**Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

I'm just looking for like minded individuals that enjoy discussing God and Jesus Christ and even the Holy Spirit..
This forum is full of those people but because Christianity is so diverse there is a lot of hypersensitivity and reactivity between the participants (just read the current threads and you will see this)
Have you read the current threads, is there any that interest you that you feel you might contribute to?
