MJ staff and member meeting June 22-July 7

"Registering"

Do remember what is, effectively, almost a 24 hour time delay - when you guys are asleep, I am working! I normally go to the forums only in the evenings/late at night, my time.

Checking in

If I may say so, I don't think that one week is going to be at all sufficient to actually accomplish what is hoped-for in this forum. Many people won't even see this or come to check the thread out in that time, or at least before only a couple of days are left in that schedule, perhaps. For this to have any chance of working at building broken bridges, I think more than a week is certainly needed and prudent.

Also, is it any topic goes as relates to the MJ forum? Or will there be restrictions on anything "staff-related", rule-related, etc?

Psalm 103
17. But the Lord's kindness is from everlasting to everlasting, and His charity to sons of sons. 18 To those who keep His covenant and to those who remember His commandments to perform them.

Is He true to His Word? He's either faithful and true to those who fear and obey Him, or you know what you call Him.

hi, i will check in and say hello here. i am not sure what the purpose of this thread is. i usually try to stay out of all of the politics and rule making here and i honestly have no idea what is going on with all the drama and goodbye threads in the mj forum, but I do hope that ya'll work things out and i will pray for that.
i personally feel that making more rules will not solve things.
i also think that micro-dividing and subdividing into a kabillion more subforums will not solve things.
I think that defining who can and who cannot post will not solve things.

I think that monitoring the topics themselves - such as not allowing anti-semitism or proselytising or whatever is more likely to be effective.

since i don't really know or understand what is going on here, my input may be way off base and if it is, i appologise.

i honestly have no idea why people who are not Christian would even have any desire to be on a Christian message board.
it appears that the Jewish members here who are not messianic are all converts and used to be messianic and that they are here for fellowship.
if so, that is ok.
i suggested, and no one seemed to like the idea, that a Jewish sub forum be made under non-christian religion for the Jewish non-messianic members to fellowship if they wish to do that. I am not sure what the problem with that would have been.


I also do think that non-trinitarian issues belong in the non-trin area.
But, not all messianic issues are non-trinitarian and i think some members were offended to find the whole forum stuck in the non-trin area.

anyway, i may be totally off the topic so forgive me if i am.
ya'll have my prayers.

well this is where you can ask if certain things that you heard on the forum are really true, and things you think or feel are really true....We have Mods, Sups, Admins, and Advisors here to verify and offer encouragement.

Im not sure Vis thats a good question but it will have to be some one higher than me to answer it.....my training tells me no its still a Mod/Advisor issue but I could be wrong......

I am hoping one week is sufficient but if we need more time we can cross that bridge at that time how does that sound? Fair enough?

Many people won't even see this or come to check the thread out in that time, or at least before only a couple of days are left in that schedule, perhaps.

This is an invitation only meeting BUT if you all feel that someone was left out, that is not our intention, so please feel free to PM them with this link.....Do not post this link on the forum though thank you

Well I believe so Shir, thats my guess anyway, and that is why we wanted you all here
