Date Posted: 14:01:28 08/19/07 Sun In reply to: Brian K. 's message, "Beware of False Teaching by J. Vernon McGee" on 21:07:55 01/17/07 Wed Just found this site. Thdere is so much in it and I haven't had time to read much of it but I agree with all I have read. This topic hit me. I was raised Catholic so I beleived a lot of false teachings. I got saved in a Church of God. All they were interested in was speaking in tongues. I wanted answers. The only one I got "Wait until you are in the church 10 or 15 years then you will understand. I wanted answers NOW. I tried different churches. The Holy Spirit let me know it was Anti-Christ. Was in the Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses, Bai Hai's to name a few. I am now in a non-denomination church where the whole Gospel is taught. The preacher doesn't care whose toes he steps on. God is using all these experiences to warn people how easy it is to get trapped. I was only in each a short time just to get enough of an idea of what was being taught. Since 2001 I have been writing on about 20 different sites. I can only write by inspiration from the Holy Spirit.I am not a Bible Scholar so I depend on His guidance. I enjoyed your writing on Psalm 40-A Messianic Psalm. I learned a lot from it.I will keep busy reading. I use my own name on some of my articles (the site's request) and user names on others. God bless you. Keep telling the truth. . >Found this today and would like to share it. > >Beware of False Teaching >by Dr. J.
