    Oh thank you Tim! You are such a sweet person, very knowledgeable in the scriptures, funny, and I know you love your flock. Your church is so blessed to have you as their pastor!

    RE: Any friends on Baptist Board?

    I know Brother Bob very well(he helped to baptize me)!! I have met Virginia ORB and old regular at the 2007 Sovereign Grace Association of ORBs in July of 2007. I haven't met any others, that I can think of. I have come to respect many on here. I truly do love pinoybaptist(he was one of the first ones I told through PM of God saving my ever dying soul). I don't agree with some of what he does, but I do love him, and love him as a Brother in Christ!! I hate to hear of Linda64 and SFIC being banned again. Even though we didn't agree with everything(shoot who does?), if we all agreed, every post would be, " I agree wholeheartedly", or "I see it that that way too, Brother(or Sister)"....you catch my drift. Where's the "debate" when all are on the same page? But, I do love "harmony" amongst God's people, too. I have a deep amount of respect for Amy(and her cats), as well. I really enjoy reading her stance on the OSAS issue.....do.......not........derail.....must.....not......derail........the.......or......hijack....this.........thread! There!! Boy that was hard!! :laugh: :jesus: :godisgood: May God bless us all! :1_grouphug: I love you all!!

    PS Hey there Brother Pinoy; are you getting the shovels ready for winter? Brrrr!! In Buffalo, I bet the winters start earlier than here in West Virginia.

    Well, I hope I have some friends, even with whom I can disagree. I am saddened to see the number who seem to be 'disappearing', even when I do not agree with much of what they say. :tear:

    A couple of the 'bannings' have especially saddened me. As have some who voluntarily have left entirely "on their own" for one reason or another. I won't say any more, except that as is my predominate practice, I did not vote in the poll, for the same reasons as I usually do not vote.

    Edited to say: I meant to I don't agree with some of what he "believes", not "does". Sorry Brother Pinoy! You know I love you as a Brother in Christ!:jesus: Sorry if the earlier post I made has offended you in any way....that's not my intention in the least. I love you!!

    Brother, there are some people here on the BB who will rarely offend me in any way, and who will hear (privately) from me, if they do, and you're one of them.

    Luv you too, brother.

    Hey, I'd better watch my P's and Q's! :laugh: :wavey:

    I like and respect a lot of people on the BB, and enjoy their posts when I see them. I have added to my prayer list a few that I feel close to. Having said that, I usually read by subjects that interest me rather than the people.

    yes I have friends on the BB.

    Some who have been tremendously supportive behind the scenes - especially this past year as I have had to face some very old hurts and issues. Some who did nothing more than let me know they were calling my name out in prayer.

    Many have signed in on this thread, but many have not.

    The people here can be very caring at times - when you are not wanting to whop them upside the head with a frying pan ;)
