Dr T Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I've changed my "religion" profile. I'm happy to say that it has moved from "Seeker of truth" to Christian. As I continue to learn and grow, I'm sure we'll have conversations about this. :) Same person, same ideas I've given my life to Jesus Christ and am dedicated to the Bible as defining by beliefs.

Dr T Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Posted February 9, 2007 Thank you so much Lisajo. Um...is that position still open? I'm on a gnome listserve-haven't heard about that vacancy. Thanks CK :) Quote
Rosewood Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 That is SO great, the pivotal moment of your life. Would you mind sharing a little of the story? Was it a gradual awakening or suden light? Quote
susieSA Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Right on brother.That is what I say too It is always great to hear.. I like that you say that you are "continuing to grow and learn".. Not many people do - so it is great to hear that too.. I too am continuing to grow & learn in many aspects of my life Quote
StrawberryFields Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Great News Dr. T. It has been a great ride though this part of your journey. Quote
Guest Monica Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 YAY!!! Good decision Dr. T. Quote
prisonchaplain Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 I'm pleased, and not too surprised. "Rejoice with those who rejoice." Know that I do. :-) Quote
Dr T Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Posted February 10, 2007 Thank you all for your nice words. Berry, it has been a great ride. Thank you for sharing it. Rosewood, not a quick decision for me. God made me/allows me to be a critical person, and because that is the case, I read various religious works, evaluated, prayed, and came to a decision. I realized that it was not really me choosing God but God choosing me in this decision. I started looking for a higher authority than myself, which I decided was the Bible, God's written word, as a standard for comparison about my own beliefs about what "God should be" or other religious versions of "who God is" and by reading, praying, considering, and bouncing ideas off of people, God found me through the pages of scripture. Like I said, I will grow and learn. I enjoy philosophy of religion as a hobby too. Now I can take a position, it will be fun to delve into what the Bible really says, as a whole, about whatever God will teach me/and has been teaching me through it. :) I am saved, no fear of being separated from God, am an heir with the Lord and have the Holy Spirit to help me out. This is so awesome! Monica and PC, There is much rejoicing. "Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say rejoice!" Nate, susieKL, and CK, thank you for the support. :) Quote

rosie321 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Going through old messages.... So you went over to the light side :) ? Congratulations Dr. T. for putting your feet on a good path that will lead you to much personal happiness :) . Most of my most treasured and cherished friendships and associatians have been found amongst christian believers. While I have only known you from distant online communications you have always expressed yourself wisely, humorously, and compassionately. I'm glad to see you finding happiness and progress on your spiritual path and have found one that will develop your weakness and utilize your strengths in a wholesome way. Congratulations again!

Dr T Posted February 21, 2007 Author Report Posted February 21, 2007 LOL. "Would you like a short argument or a long argument?" Quote
CaptainTux Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Well, I do better on the quick gotchas, you can write long ones that I can't compete with..medium would be fair. Quote
Dr T Posted February 21, 2007 Author Report Posted February 21, 2007 "OK, your time is up. That will be $10 for the argument we just had. Please pay the receptionist on the way out." Quote
