Re: Hello!

Thank you Elmer! My family and I attent Gardnerville Community Church as it's where my mother took me as a child. I don't always agree with their sermon because they seem to believe that lenience towards disobedince from wife towards husband is forgivable, but I intent to keep the tradition of my family going. My wife and family all understand that obedience is a necessity.

I have to say that my favorite Bible verse has to be Ezekiel 2:1.

"Then He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet that I may speak with you!" 2As He spoke to me the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet; and I heard Him speaking to me.…"

This was the first verse my mother read to me after I was saved at age 5. I'll never forget that day.

Wow Ashton, saved at five years old! That's sure a long time. So, tell us approximately how many times have you backslid into homosexuality in all those years? Please now, just a rough idea of the number, no need to be exact, just a very, very, very rough estimate will be fine! You see, I like to keep track of matters like this just in case a record breaker comes along some day. Don't worry, reply with confidence, your information is pretty much kept secretly classified for the most part!

Re: Hello!

Also, it's strange to hear that there have recently been troubled teenagers signing up here. If I see one am I to teach them their wrong-doings and point them to the proper scripture to turn their ways to God?

You've all been so much help.

-Ashton.

Welcome Ashton
Yes indeed. If you ever see troubled teenagers anywhere, not just here, but anywhere, you should quote the Bible at them. Let them know that God does not approve of them and they are bound for Satan's hellfire, unless they mend their ways.
John 8:44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Re: Hello!

Ah, there are too many replies to quote! Thank you all for your help. Apologies for my confusion. I'll definitely be informing my family that we're going to swap all of our Bibles to the King James Version!

...I've seen many topics that have pulled in my interest and have no authority to comment on them...

You're misunderstanding this: "This the ONLY subforum you can start threads in.". It says start, not add to. You can comment on any thread you see (that's not "locked", of course).

If you (after using the "Search" function thoroughly) find a subject that somehow is not being addressed, ask your question here. If the moderators deem it worthy of further discussion, they'll make a new thread for it.

Re: Hello!

Thank you everyone for your welcomes!

I do have a question if you wouldn't mind answering;

How does one increase their forum status from "Unsaved Trash" to a suitable rank to post in other topics? I've seen many topics that have pulled in my interest and have no authority to comment on them.

Thanks in advance.

-Ashton

Our authority comes from the Lord God Almighty Himself, as revealed in the Holy Bible. If you have some information or an opinion to share on any topic, please feel free to reply in any thread, providing you provide the relevant Scripture where you read it first.

Thank you for your polite question.

You status depends on your future forthcomings with Jesus and the Good True Christians™ of LBC.

PRAISE GOD, PRAISE JESUS OUR LORD!

1 Thessalonians 5:8
But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

When you've proven yourself trustworthy in the eyes of the Lord and the DoF. As you may have seen today, we had many atheist trolls run amok on our Godly forums (I'm sure you had nothing to do with that....right?).

We can never be too careful. With that said, Jesus is patient and should be as well.

Re: Hello!

Welcome, Ashton. How refreshing to see a proper introduction.

That is a very nice choice of verse although I am glad to say that I am not familiar with the version you are quoting from. As our young friend Marko has pointed out, we at Landover use only the True Bible, the King James Version. Just compare what you quoted:

Then He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet that I may speak with you!" As He spoke to me the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet; and I heard Him speaking to me.…

With the True Word of God

And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee. And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me.

and you will understand why.

I will include you and your family in my prayers, dear.

Re: Hello!

Hello! Nice to see one adult here after all those disturbed teenagers.

All that you have written sounds nice. Btw, we use the Real Bible here. You can burn all your wrong ones, I did so after I joined the forum.

What a nice verse, Mr. Ashton and your manners seem impeccable. You would not believe the kind of trash that occasionally invades these Friendly Forums...

You favorite verse reminds me of one of my own... Both tell us about the GREATNESS of God and His glorious, fearsome nature.

Exodus 3:14
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

Hearing or reading that, you just know it's about obedience and submitting to God, not about us and our feeble emotions!

Hope you'll stay and start on the narrow but uncertain path to SALVATION. But you know, I have some lingering doubts if salvation at the tender age of 5 is plausible... You see, you have to be old enough to understand to repent.

Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

But strive for Jesus! I can give you my personal testimony that it is worth it!

Yours in Christ,

Elmer

Re: Hello!

Hello, Ashton from Nevada. Some of the basic things with your life seem to be in order. 2 and a half nice children and a wife, submissive, I dare hope?

Indeed, the Interwebs are at the moment run over by a hoard of heathens!

Where do you go to Church and which verses of the Bible (I prefer the capital B here...) are the dearest to you? What weapons do you use when shooting God's lesser Creatures?

Proverbs 12:27
The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.

Tell us more about yourself, potential Friend and we can reciprocate your friendship.

Yours in Christ,

Elmer

Re: Hello!

I'm Ashton! Father of 3 children, 2 sons and a daughter, and husband to my gorgeous wife. I'm a believer in the word of the bible as my mother tought me every word in it. She made her life about teaching me and my siblings the word. I'm excited to have found this place on this otherwise pit of sin known as the internet.
