its me

[Maureen]

Hello to all you who remember me, I've not been here for quite some time now but I've still been walking with Jesus which is the most important thing.
I made very good friends with a member who used to be on here and we have kept in touch ever since.
I hope you are all diong well, and still studying hard in biblical matters.
I spent some time joining a study from First Fruits of Zion a very deep Messianic Jewish study, but after having paid for a full years course work and studied my way through over half of it I came across material that just didn't sit right with my spirit, so I withdrew my membership and stopped doing the study through th volumes I had purchased.
Well I'm looking forward to catching up with you all.
Lordbless.

Welcome back! We need to always be just exactly where God wants us to be, and sometimes He shows us that a change in our course in necessary.

Ah I do remember yourself and there's other names also still here, I guess when I began to email the friend I made on here and we still do, we then began our own biblical discussions. Still it will be lovely to catch up, again, praise the Lord.

When you test all things with the Holy Spirit as 1 Thessalonians 5:21 states and find that what is said or written is not good, you let them go. I am glad that you did not continue the study despite what you paid for the lessons. I remember that in my youthgroup, a teacher said something I didn't think sat right with me. When I prayed on it and asked him about it, he responded with a rebuttal, but after that, never sent me another message again. Although I didn't pay money to go to youthgroup, there was a price of years of time spent there and the thoughts of what my friends would say. I decided that following Jesus was worth that price I paid, and when I quit, some people confronted me about it, including my pastor who said that what I did was not a good choice. I feel at peace with my decision. Your price was a whole lot of money that you won't get back, but your choice to withdraw says that Jesus is more important to you than to get the most of your money.

I am glad to see you here again, and I do remember seeing you around. Maybe we will meet again in the forums or the chatroom.
