Thank you. Yes, you did come in as a breath of fresh, Vektek. The foul smell in here was pretty bad. Why do some just post to hurt others? Wouldn't a true Christian with a new nature, who has been regenerated by the Holy Spirit, want to encourage others instead? Especially, why would people who claim to be mature Christians, try to discourage someone new to the faith? I couldn't believe how posts were twisted into lies just to hurt someone.

This shows us all just how strong Tansybelle's faith in our Lord really is. Many newbies who would have had to endure what she had to endure on this forum would have turned their backs on God and Christianity after being treated this way. We have heard many testimonies of people doing just that. Tansybelle is an extremely strong person. She was accused of letting me and others control her, but I guarantee you, Tansybelle is too strong to let anybody control her. She has proven that in the Christian Debate forum.

She is also very kind. She knew my account was closed and so she offered to post a Christmas song or something for me. I gave her a couple of songs to post. It was done with a loving heart. It was not done because I controlled her. She was the one who offered to do it.

One thing lead to another. I then asked her if she would post the information about the possibility of the Pope being the False Prophet. I knew that was a heavier subject which almost no one really even discussed anyway, except maybe Loquat. Instead, it seemed like every devil in hell came out to use it to try to discourage our dear sister. They lost. Tansybelle is still standing strong in the faith. It was nothing that I would have cried about if she would have said no. I would not have pressured her. I've also asked Refreshed to post some interesting things, in the past, that I came across when I had a closed account. Sometimes she did it. Other times she said "no" depending on what she thought about the post. Refreshed is also someone who would never let others control her.

I thought the subject would have had more interest than it did. The main interest seemed to be just trying to tear others down.

I still can't get over someone coming in here telling us we should have PHDs to post. How unbiblical is that? The Bible tells us all to study to show ourselves approved unto God. It does not tell us all to get PHDs or to follow those who do? Far from it. We must all do our own studies, our own examination of doctrines, and most importantly we must all call on the name of the Lord for ourselves to get saved. No PHD has the ability to save us. Only Christ can do that. Following false teachings will be no excuse for us when we stand before God! It will not matter if our teachers had PHDs or not.

Yes, I am aware that God does call some of his ministers to go to colleges and seminaries and even to get PHDs. We can learn from them, but we are to still study for ourselves, examine what they teach and check what they say out with our own Bible study, plus seeking the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth. Even Paul in Acts 17 highly praised those who examined his teachings. There are many wolves out there who have PHDs. Our souls are worth more than the whole world. We cannot let people deceive us with this nonsense. This person must have never read the verse that tells us that the work of ministers is to equip the lay people (the saints) for the work of the ministry. Only a devil would try to silence Christians just because they do not have PHDs! It goes against so much of the message of the Bible.

Well, I had not intended to stay this long. I was only going to try to help straighten out the lies and confusion that was happening. I thought I would just make a few comments. That's how I came up with my user name. I thought I would leave my account open for a few days in case I needed to respond to anyone.

Tansybelle is becoming a bulldog for Jesus. I know God must have something very special planned for her as strong as she is. I can see God using her in a mighty way.

Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year too!
