Good evening everyone

My name is Kerry, I'm a 46 year old woman from the UK and I have been calling myself a Christian for approximately 2 years. Prior to this I was loosely involved in "new age" spirituality - tarot cards, spirit guides and all the rest. I suppose I was a nature worshipping pagan. My belief was pantheistic in nature.

At the time, I really didn't know that what I was doing was wrong. I had always been someone searching for Truth and this has meant that I have always been what is commonly called, derogatorily in my opinion, a "conspiracy theorist". I prefer the term truth seeker however.

I can't really explain what took me away from that new age belief system except that one day, having been reading about how the powers that should not be have been working towards a One World Government with One religion and One currency etc for many years, I suddenly had a revelation that this "oneness" or non-duality/pantheistic spirituality that I had been involved in had so many parallels to this one world order. After that I started seeing that no matter where I went, Jesus and Christianity was ridiculed, mocked and that started me thinking that maybe the thing I had ridiculed for so long (Christianity) might actually be something. To cut a long story short, I called out to Jesus and asked if He was real. Two years or so later, here I am. I asked a question in Google and this forum appeared and I felt led to join.

I am completely alone in the world. My daughter has kept my grandchildren away from me for 8 months now. I have no physical church, no friends or family and up until now I have been mostly talking to people on YouTube. But honestly I am lonely, I am desperate for fellowship and if internet fellowship is all I can have then I would love to have that.

Truly I'm looking forward to meeting you all, thank you for taking the time to read my introduction, which is longer than I intended.

See you around!

God bless,
love from your sister Kerry, UK,

Weclome im new here also, Like you ive followed various different beliefs in the past that haven't really helped but hindered. I hope you find what your looking for. I think this covid disease is going to bring about a lot of new found christians who are now seeking truths for that its a blessing in these troubled times.

Welcome, Kerry, I hope you find good fellowship here. I encourage a good read of the Bible so that you are grounded in what God said about Himself and about how we are best to live. It makes a lot of sense. Humanists abound inside and outside the churches, and many times what we hear makes a lot of sense. But Jesus (Yeshua) said His sheep will hear His voice. The Psalmist said he would hide God's word in his heart so as to not sin against Him. Find your fellowship here, yes, but find your authority in what God said. My hopes are for the best for you, friend.
