I prayed and suffered greatly but i found my help in the Lord. People say there are no lone Rangers in the church but I'm one. I don't feel right on this website. God gave me grace and love and I'm happy alone. I dont need stumbling blocks in my path. Anyway I'm sorry it didn't work out. Peace and God bless

"The Lone Ranger is a fictional masked former Texas Ranger who fought outlaws in the American Old West with his Native American friend Tonto."

I am not sure what the "there are no lone rangers in the church" even means.

You mean being single? There are millions of single people in the church. I am single too.

Or do you mean not attending any local church? That happens to plenty of Christians too. Not every place on the Earth has a suitable church to attend.

I understand, sometimes churches are very lonely places and God is the only solace, He is the only reason we are there because there is no love from the people there. Prayed for you, may God bless you in every way, may you find a place where you are loved and cared about dear one. May God bless you with so much grace and strength and an outpouring of His love into your life I pray in Jesus Name.

Yes I dont a church. And I don't like much online fellowship either. People argue politics and religion and then they say its not fellowship so its ok. Everything is fellowship in the Spirit as far as I'm concerned

You mean total isolation from all other people. Complete solitude. Like a monk living in isolation. Living the life of a hermit or an anchorite. I have autism so I understand the desire for isolation and the feeling of alienation. Needless to say, it's something to pray about. And perhaps do some research on.

This place is a trigger. Everyone is negative and tries pushing church and flawed doctrine on you. No one understands my faith.

Based on what you said, I meant logging out permanently. You seem to be caught up in a cycle of having a very negative experience with this, while simultaneously being obsessed with it to the tune of about 130 posts per day.

My friend. No one is making you read my posts. You can take your own advice.

Christianity can be messy at times. We are a diverse group. Like the real world, you will find some that will agree with you and some who will not. I recommend creating some rules for yourself if any part of you would like to stay - rules about forums or topics you will participate in and those you won't. It can make your day a lot more peaceful and enjoyable.

I was thinking of this. I'm not the only one obsessed my friend. How many people have been here for years trying to promote their religion and politics?

Yes, sometimes there are those of us who are "Lone Rangers," if even for the moment. And we shouldn't be shunned or shunted by the rest of the Church for having our own reflective gifts.

Just keep in mind, though, SOL, that you're "in the Body of Christ" whether you sit at home or in the local church building pew and the 'bickering' you see on CF is an unfortunate but continuing expression of the historic splits between Christians that have taken place in the past several centuries.

It's not your fault; it's just the nature of human shortcomings within the societies of the world and among Christians.

And as Blaise Pascal once said, “All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.”

Peace!
