I am sure the new name would please the devil more than the old one. The devil hates the name of Christ . We know that.

Erwin go back to where you started this place and make two sites. You already spent money use it wisely. Stop this .

True.. one of the Devil's beatitudes: Blessed are they who mock, for they cause strife and divisions that please me. Blessed are they who are easily offended, for they soon get angry and quit.

And be honest, you're loving every minute of this aren't you? You felt betrayed by Erwin long before this name change came about and now you're here to salivate over the "nightmare" and hope to pick up some spoils as you go back to your own site, what is it, CCF?

The bitterness in most of your posts isn't hidden.

Spoken by someone who has NO Clue who Sun Messanger is I think...:sigh:

What are you talking about??? How dare you post that. I respect that man for all his accomplishments. I hate this mistake he has made. You need to get your facts straight. I pray on 15 sites every morning . Thats right 15 before I even get here so know your facts before you spout off please.

There are no rules keeping the name of Christ from being defamed here any more. Unitarians are now considered Christians here and are free to poison waters for the weak and unlearned... theres more probs than just a name change

I agree the name change is indicative of a much greater darkness spreading through out the site...:(

Reading all your posts it sure sounds to me that you are quite bitter about all of this and quite bitter towards Erwin. Everytime someone has tried to give Erwin the benefit of the doubt and say anything good about him here you have cut them down.

Here is a thought--- we don't want Christ to be an after thought here... so, rather than let the devil win this round... what if we all put HIS name boldly in all of our signatures? Then He'll be everywhere... :cool:

It is at least a place to start reunifying with our brothers and sisters, and bring some good out of this mess. :)

Then I assert you do not know how to read. I have given constructive suggestions over and over again. I do not speak around subjects sir. I am direct and honest perhaps you may not be use to that. I hope you get use to it. This is truth I speak without all the bologna most people attach to it. Realize you are wrong and wake up!

Speaking of FACTS, let's go to the source and read them for ourselves rather than causing problems and making assumptions.

Unless we believed you are in the wrong. You are just a man, a sinner like the rest of us. :)

Obviously many of us are not happy with the all the changes. But Erwin made them and this is obviously what he wanted and I don't think there will be any changing of his mind, unfortunately. We aren't left with many options. We can stay here and live with the changes or we can leave the site as many already have.

My prayers have turned from praying for this site any further, I now pray someone will start a new site, with a TRUE vision. Someone who will not give up on that vision. Uniting the body was a good vision but Erwin lost hope in that vision and let it go. I would start a new site myself but I don't have the know how or the money.

I know we are all voicing our opinions but I fear our voices are falling on deaf ears now and nothing will come of it.

You mean the "Christians" who deny the Christianity, yet still say they're "Christians" anyway (ie. Mormons, Jehovahs Witnesses, Scientologists, Moonies, etc...)? Well, they are not Christians. Now, according to this universalism site, Muslims can even be Christian, homosexuality is a-ok, and Jesus doesn't have to be God.

The way I see it it is people like you who attributed to the change.

The site was mainly a dream that people like you shattered. The dream was to unite all Christians. This unity can and will never occur as long as there are Christians like you amongst its ranks. How can Christians ever unite where there are people like you so hell bent on separating them?

It is people like you who destroyed the dream. Why should he continue to have a forum geared to uniting all Christians when there are Christians like yourself who are just out to spit on such a dream. If that is what you wish Christianity to be, you can have it all to yourself then.

Those of us who actually care for each other no mater what we believe will strive for unity.

I can not give up the fight for what is right until it is done. It is not done here yet. I feel that . I must go by the way I am directed by my conscience and continue. I am praying with you...

God Bless
