Hi Barney. When I first felt a tug at my heart to post scripture I went overboard thinking about all that would read what I had cut and pasted from the Bible and Spurgeon. I still think it is good to paste brief scripture when making a point about a subject that is being discussed. I even had one person send me an E-mail about a Spurgeon meditation, telling me that it had led him to a closer relationship with Jesus.
When others started posting 5 or 6 posts in a row I caught myself completely jumping over them to find the first personal post I could find. I discovered that people want to know what I feel and what my thought are on a matter rather than reading verse when most of us have a Bible that we can read and meditate on in our personal times with the Lord.
I have even gone so far as to give personal testimony, hoping that someone might be able to identify with how I came to know the Lord. So far, no one seems willing to give personal things for all to see but my thoughts are that if you have nothing to hide, then no one can hold you up for prosecution or derision.
God bless you,
James
PS: I came back to add to my post because it just struck me that there would be more Christian love and brotherhood on this thread if some of you were more willing to show a little humility by giving personal testimony. We are quick to tell others what to do(Myself included) but very, very slow to admit that personal trials and tribulation is what brought us to God.
