[Monkeynathan]

I see a lot of people saying thank you for letting them join and I say, no thanks sould be needed. We are here to help eachother with our simular faith and shouldn't reject people that want to either help those younger and inexperiance or lacking of understanding, or to find somebody with experiance to give them advice and support. Welcome to all the new people and I hope you find new, more or better hope in the Lord.  

[DoubleHTripleZ]

yo!

I'm DoubleHTripleZ!! (formerly HHZZZ sweatdrop ) Ya'll can call me that or whatever ya want (its a "ya" day XD )

I'm not entirely comfortable giving my age but i'm learning how to drive (so over 16! lol)

I'm from the west coast (oooh, that narrows it down) and i'm not going to pretend i'm some christian who is highly educated in theology. i'm not. I cant name all 10 of the commandments, i can't tell ya what happened in the first week of earth in order or tell you what each angel mentioned in the bible did and i can't tell you the difference between an atheist and an agnostic.

but i can be honest.  

[El Secret Agent]

Well my age is 11.

My name is Xavier Kelly.

I'm getting baptized at the age of 12 same age as Jesus. biggrin

I would always walk out the door and say im Christian, how my lifestyle was like completely different. I would swear, watch inappropriate things.

Now my lifestyle has changed, and im understanding what a Christian is and thats my religion. So then I thought I should be baptized, since i feel at the age of 12 I shall be more mature enough to understand my religion.

I would like to be a priest when I grow up.

My birth verse is 1 Thessalonian 5:18 NIV "Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."

I'm not one of those people that say they're sinless. Because I'm not. I'm an imperfect human being. Even though I have Jesus, some of the things I do seem like sin. I have encountered Christians who claim they are sinless through Jesus however I always see sin overshadowing them, (Pride, Hatred, etc). I'm not going to say I'm proud to be something, that would mean I have a self-esteem, self-confidence, pride and an ego. I have none of these things due to years of hardships. However I do stand firm in my faith through my words. I do honestly love debating people and seeing what makes them tick.

Because I do study Judaism and I have a few friends who are Jewish and I am apart of the Jewish Gaians Guild on Gaia, I will make corrections concerning the OT and the purpose of Ha-Satan. I do this out of respect for my friends. The OT is comprised of their laws and their culture. The least I can do, is correct and misconceptions one might have concerning the subject at hand.

I do not claim to know everything single thing. I do know a lot of things, but that's because I read and study constantly. I have a thirst for knowledge. I love to learn new things and I love questioning things.

If I do saying something you may find offensive, hurtful, and or correct something that's a misconception, It's not because I'm being mean, I'm helping you understand how things were then, and or now, what certain things me. If anything it's helping strengthen your beliefs and learning to be more like Christ.

As a Christian I am compelled to follow Jesus' teachings. To follow the law he set forth, not the Law of Old. I follow what's known as the Law of Agape: two very simple teachings. Love God and Love thy neighbor. Though the second one I kinda fail at. I do not follow the OT because I am not Jewish. I am a Gentile and I accept that I am of Gentile blood. I also do that out of respect for my Jewish friends.

Like I said, I do suffer from self esteem issues. I have been for many years. I have been Catholic when I was little. Strayed because none of my questions could be answered, came back because of my boyfriend who converted (talk about a dumb move >.< ), strayed because the Christians I encountered on a chat room made my issues worse. And came back after realizing I was a Christian at heart, always have been always will be.

If you have any problems questions or concerns, feel free to message me or comment my profile. However all I ask is that you be kind, courteous, nice and respectful. The last few messages I got from people who had a problem with what I believed and what I had in my sig, were rude and declared I wasn't a Christian because I didn't believe like they did. Because my beliefs weren't theirs. If you're respectful to me, I will return the favor. If you are rude to me, I'll be rude back. :3  

[squeakygirl]

[dessieann]

I am a bit older than all of you and I want to Praise the Lord for all of you young people looking to serve the Lord or looking for the Lord. In the world there is so much sin and kids not seeking the Lord, it breaks my heart. When my daughter was raised as a Christian and she died a year ago and she is in heaven waiting for Destiny and I.When I come here it's like talking to her she was just like all of you. So know you all are doing a lady on the east coast (go phillies!!!) a favor just being here. Angel and butterfly love to all of you! heart heart

Name: James, call me that or Exark
Age: 17
Born: Dayton, Ohio
Lives: Canada
Denomination: Byzantine Catholic
Favorite Verse: Revelations 21:6
Beliefs: a mix of catholic and non-catholic beliefs.

About Me:
I try to get away from the Catholic Church, but everytime i try to, God always calls me back to it. I don't know why, but all i can think of is that he wants me there and has plans for me. I'm a healer by nature, physical, not spiritual. Its something i've tried to suppress for most of my life, but i can't deny it. I've always considered compassion and the like a weakness, but i finally realize, it is one of my greatest strengths. I've also got a gift for the trumpet and for speaking (or so i'm told). Other than that, i'm also a believer in a unified Christianity (it'll come, but it needs to be kick started). Other than that, i'm a Warhammer 40,000 Player and a gamer.

Favorite Game: Dawn of War: Dark Crusade

Oh yeah, and Lady Tsukio here is a friend of mine

Err, okay you got the basics. My father is the 'pastor' or whatever you want to call it, of my church. I like rock music, and do not believe that loud music is 'evil' and against my religion. In actual fact I love MCR. sweatdrop
I think of myself as a 'Modern Christian' I mean, don't get offended (if this is at all offensive), but yeah, I believe God created the world, but that he may have done it by the Big Bang. I'm not sure if I believe in evolution though, I would like to think that I came from something less primitive than a monkey. xd

Hi all! Thanks for accepting smile

You can call me Luz or Lu or Luci
I am 24 and study at the university.
I live in the Czech republic.
I've been a Christian since I was 10 or 11 and I'm a member in the Methodist church.

I love music: darkwave, gothic rock and some metal are my most favourite genres. I enjoy learning and practicing languages [English, German, Spanish]. I've been on Gaia for almost 2 years and I like about it that there's such a diversity of topics and everyone can find here something that fits their interests. [other internet forums are often directed only or mainly on one subject/area of interest.] And I love the possibility to dress our avatars smile
I also like reading, specially fantasy, historical, and books related to Christianity/the Bible.
