Title: new member Post by: bettyboop on August 22, 2005, 06:55:44 PM I am a Christian woman who has been lookin for a good Christian site that discusses the Bible and Jesus Christ,rather than debating the Bible.My husband and I lost our home after taking in my brother,who had gotten out of prison and had no place to stay.He ran up our bills and credit card so high we are still trying to pay it off.We are now staying in a cheap motel,until we find another home.We don't have a permenant church at this time,so I have been looking on the internet for good Christian fellowship.Many of them I ran across spent more time debating Christ than worshipping Him.I joined ChristiansUnite,because I believe it is the kind of site I am looking for.
Title: Re:new member Post by: Soldier4Christ on August 22, 2005, 07:15:06 PM Again I say welcome to Christians Unite. There is indeed good Christian fellowship and loving discussions here. It is the reason that I first joined here myself.
I am sorry to hear of your circumstances. You showed a good heart filled with the love of Jesus for taking him in. Unfortunately there are those that take undue advantage that way. It has happened to my wife and I also. Stay strong in the Lord, he will reward you in the end. My prayers are with you and your husband in finding a suitable home. Title: Re:new member Post by: bettyboop on August 22, 2005, 07:47:21 PM We have put everything in God's hands,and go where He leads us.I believe He led us here.Through prayer he will lead us on.I believe He led us here because of a need to continue fellowship.
We thank you for your prayers. Title: Re:new member Post by: Shammu on August 22, 2005, 08:48:48 PM Hello Bettyboop, welcome to Christians Unite forums. Theres a great bunch of christians here.
Resting in the arms, of the Lord. Bob Mark 6:11 And if any community will not receive and accept and welcome you, and they refuse to listen to you, when you depart, shake off the dust that is on your feet, for a testimony against them. Truly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the judgment day than for that town.

Title: Re:new member Post by: nChrist on August 23, 2005, 12:02:11 AM Hello BettyBoop,
WELCOME!! (http://www.sirinet.net/~blkidps/welcome.gif) We do have a debate area, so avoid it. :D I understand exactly what you mean about wanting discussions and not debate. I will be praying for you and your family. Love in Christ, Tom Psalms 9:9-10 NASB The LORD also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, A stronghold in times of trouble; And those who know Your name will put their trust in You, For You, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You. Title: Re:new member Post by: bettyboop on August 23, 2005, 12:32:00 AM Thanks for the welcome blackeyedpeas.There may not be anything wrong with a debate,as long as something is learned from them.Often they make enemies out of those debating,and leave the readers more confused.I don't condemn debating,it's just not my cup of tea.

Quite often the debates are friendly. Yes we each have a different view. Most of us are open to seeing, what other Christians see. Except for the troublemakers. We try to keep on eye on them.

Hello there bettyboop, Welcome aboard CU. Hope this is the board you've been looking for. We have serious discussions here, but have fun, too. I'm sorry to hear about your situation. God will guide and direct you...............don't forget to ask Him. ;) Remember what the Bible says, "you have not, because you asked not." I will keep you and your husband in my daily prayers. Just had a thought! Have you considered contacting the Salvation Army? They may be able to get you some housing or give you some leads. Grace and peace, cris |
