I don't believe everyone on OB is an IFB. This makes me wonder why they come to OB? Like minded people? To provide an alternative view? Only IFB access or way to associate? They are spiritually fed here? To sew dischord? They missed the IFB or don't know what "IFB" is? Get the latest from crazy folk here to post on another message board?

I just want to thank all of you for participating on Online Baptist. Without each of you OB would not be what it is today. I have a few new things planned for Online Baptist in the near future that could reward those of you that activity participate. Giving away the "SwordSearcher" software for referrals is just the beginning. More coming soon.

I feel more and more woman and couples are preventing pregnancy. They are stating that a baby is a burden. Just recently I been reading another group and they have several wanting to prevent pregnancy. I know our society is going towards this badly but, do I have a right to feel upset about this and I am 31 years of age and have not had a child yet and had problems? Karrie

For my birthday this year, I didn't want to get any presents. Instead, I took the family on a one day vacation. There is a old city one hour south of where we live, and I decided we would go there for the day and walk around shopping, playing at the play grounds (which we found out there are very few there), reading at the library, such the like. But, I didn't want to drive there so we took the Amtrak there. I have never been on a train ride, and was looking forward to it. I don't know who was more excited about the trip, the kids or me. We had a great time, despite the rain. We walked into shops and found the bathroom and used the air hand dryers to dry us off b…

Today, Elizabeth took Jonathan (2 years old) to see my mom. Jonathan went and got the Boggle game out to play with, and my mom said he was too young to play it. He needed to learn how to spell first. Without missing a beat, Jonathan said, "I can 'pell (he has a hard time with his words that begin with s) Grandma J-E-S-U-S!"

By Paul Harvey is an excellent book. It is probably considered a secular book, but there are many good short stories there can would make excellent Bible illustrations. It may be out of print now, but I believe it can be obtained through Amazon.com. Everyone should have this book on their book shelf. I could submit dozens of good books, but I consider "The Rest of the Story" one of my favorites.

does this seem like I am idolizing Michael or just giving a eulogy about him? Michael Jackson's death and my reaction and why I am taking it badly Psalm 34:13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. Luke 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. 26.

I've got to send my FujiFilm Fine Pix S1500 Camera back to the factory. Thankfully I kept the box that it came in. I need to place it in another box for protection, where would I get the right size box and packing to protect it. I thought some of you might be pros at this and give me a good tip on doing this. The problem is minor, it takes wonderful pictures, except for when your in very bright sunlight, them the picture will usually come out over exposed. After realizing it did this I took many picture under different conditions. I was quite surprised at how sharp pictures turn out except for in the very bright sun light.
