Members Marcus2Israel Posted December 23, 2008 Members Share Posted December 23, 2008 I was franticly searching for apologetic websites one day and found this forum by accident. I joined after a while. I don't remember much of how I joined. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members matie-k Posted December 23, 2008 Members Share Posted December 23, 2008 I've been wracking (is that how wracking is supposed to be spelled? - it looks funny) my brain to remember, but I just can't remember how I came across OB.

Members Bakershalfdozen Posted December 23, 2008 Members Share Posted December 23, 2008 Your first post here, Katie. Any other Minnesotans here? I'm a Minnesotan living in China with my hubby and baby girl and I found this by browsing the world wide web and that beloved Google. We're attempting to do missionary stuff, but it's slow going. We just got back here after being home in beautiful Minnesota for a few months. Before that we were here 2 1/2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Danny Carlton Posted December 23, 2008 Members Share Posted December 23, 2008 Matt installed a web service I built--SpelChek--and I checked out the board. I didn't post, then, because I don't go to an IFB church. Then Matt added another service I built--phpBible--and some people were asking about it so I replied to their questions. Istarted making a few posts, limiting it alot, since I didn't want to intrude, not being IFB. Then a bunch of Liberals took over the board I was posting on, and proceeded to run off all the real Christians, so I started posting more here.

Members JerryNumbers Posted December 23, 2008 Members Share Posted December 23, 2008 Ha - thanks! Now I can let my brain rest. :lol We have an elderly lady in our church who is from your home state, I keep forgetting the name of it, I'll try to remember and get her to refresh my mind, them see if it happened to be your and or close to it. She was raised a Lutheran, but converted after marrying a Baptist. As I said, I'll try to remember, sometimes it can be a small world if you ask a question or 2.

Members joyfulpraise93 Posted December 23, 2008 Members Share Posted December 23, 2008 Bro. Dan Souza (BroMatt's dad) designed my dad's website and somehow when I was looking at some material from Bro. Dan Souza I came across Online Baptist one Sunday afternoon and decided to join. Glad I did because it's where I met my husband! LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members loyaldefender Posted December 23, 2008 Members Share Posted December 23, 2008 I was a member of a Southern Baptist church. I was in Sunday School class and the lessons they were using had scriptures that didn't line up with what I was reading in my Bible(KJV). When I made mention of it, the teacher handed me a Holman Standard Version. I said no thanks. Got home and started looking into this issue and got a hit on this board. I haven't posted here in awhile, but when I first joined I found a lot of helpful information here. Thanks, LD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Will Posted December 25, 2008 Members Share Posted December 25, 2008 [quote="Crushmaster"]I found it when I was Google searching for an Independent Baptist site. I soon found OB and, after some praying, decided to join. :wink I've very much enjoyed my experience thus far, and I am sure I will continue to. God bless, Crushmaster.[/quote] Internet magics. s You prayed to decide whether or not to join? How odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Will Posted December 25, 2008 Members Share Posted December 25, 2008 Why is that odd? God bless, Crushmaster. Well, simply put, I think that God's Will generally has little or nothing to do with internet message board. God's Will is that we live for him on a daily basis. We don't have to pray out whether or not we should join a certain message board, let our kids play in Little League, or what newspaper we should subscribe to. Those are matters where we simply exercise the judgment and wisdom that God has given us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
