Dear Graystone, welcome to the thread.
This is mostly Gregor's thread, at least in the sense that he is the spiritual leader and often directs us into areas of discussion. More importantly, brother Gregor has set the tone of discussion for the thread. He's set an example of discussion which is spirited but never personal, and always focussed on the topic, never the poster. Those of us who post here have, for the most part, tried to follow his fine example of polite, brotherly, Christian conversation.

For that reason I am a bit concerned about your post. I realize that some other threads have taken a different approach, and that our sister Jane sometimes ventures into the middle of those hostilities. Recently some of those fights have bled over onto this thread but they have been the exception, not the rule. Please, let this be a safe haven.

Personally, I want to hear what people have to say about the Holy Spirit and other topics of interest to me, not what members of SI think about other members of SI.

I love this thread and beg you to be gentle in it. Your brother in Christ, Ken.

Dear Graystone:

As promised I have read all the links that you sent me. I got down to the statement there will be so precious few Jewish believers. Can I just stop there.

There will be so very precious few believers; period!

My heart weeps for a generation that is lost; but you know a very high percentage of people that have ever lived from the beginning now are alive and on the earth, something like 90% . So, I just plug away at my keyboard and if in 40 or 50 years I can just reach one person then it will be well worth it to me but I know that I can reach many more than that; I have reached 19 so far.

Do I feel that there are millions dying lost every year, sadly yes I do. All I can say is that with all my heart I do not want you to die lost. I don't care what other people say about you. I don't care if the whole world loves you or hates you. I don't care if you think christians are people you should hate or love. I mean you could love them to pieces and still not have made your own commitment.

Somewhere deep down inside you is a well spring of joy and compassion and truth that is going to explode like blowing the top off a volcano, and when it does I want to say, yes ,yes, I knew it. God is not a liar. God is not a liar. That is Graystone. My friend, God. He's MY friend. and I'll spend eternity with Him. Oh God I am so happy right now because I know you will save my friend..
