Yes, Thomas, this post is very, very true. There will be hardship and there will be pain and I have to say, that since I came back to the Christian path in 2003, it has been the hardest time in my whole life. Marraige break up. Time in Hospital.
New location. No work anymore. I could go on and on. But hey, I live in Faith and faith in my Master Teacher, Jesus Christ, keeps me going now. Keith.

To be honest Thomas I have been interested and active/semi active in spirituality since the age of about 16 years of age. I then went to Youth for Christ but after a while was to say disillusioned by how so many people were acting like saints in church and at church camps etc and then when they were away from that they were drinking and acting just like people who do not follow any faith.
Then of course came the arguments that we are right and all the other churches are wrong just like still happens. Unfortunately I have to say that I have witnessed more hypocrisy, lies and backstabbing in most Christian Faiths that I have been involved in than any other Spiritual Faith that is non Christian. By saying this, I am being judgemental which really we can use righteous judgment but I prefer to say that I an espressing the truth, that I have witnessed. I do not actually go to any land based church any more for this very reason, however that is not to say that I never will again. If I am guided to, then I will.
I spent quite a large amount of time doing study with JW, SeventhDay Adventists and the Latter Day Saints and I was a teacher in the Adult Sunday School in the Latter Day Saints and also assisted the church president in monthly home visits.
I do admire the strength of conviction these people in the above churches do have in their believe system.
I have been to many of the traditional Christian churches and was quite active in the Uniting Church in Australia but I refuse to enter their church anymore, since they have allowed gay ministers to preach in their churches now.
I have seen a lot of things in my life such as having visions and dreams that have often quided me, to where I am now. The best way to describe me now is that I try to walk my walk, with discernment and am always aware of what I read and what I do. I call myself a follower of the teachings of the Master who to me is Jesus Christ.
When I read the Bible, I always look for what Jesus did and how he treated people and I try to follow his example, the best that I can. That means I try not to be judgemental and I talk to and try to be friendly with all human beings, what ever they are, if they drink a lot, they take drugs, it does not matter, I will fellowship with them, regardless of color, race or creed. If the chance comes up to express, what I believe, then I will. I never push anything to anybody unless I see an opening and then I will. Keith.
