A Post to the Two-by-Two List on May 19,1998 By Rosalie

Greetings Everyone and welcome to H_ _ _, great to have you on board! This List does have its ups and downs, highs and lows. I've been on it almost a year now and have made so many new friends and learned so much - - it has been an amazing year.

I appreciate the opportunity to talk with people (either in person or on this list) about topics of common interest - - especially subjects that were forbidden or just never discussed when we were in the "truth."

I have noticed that it is harder for some people to shake off the old "hangups."

Some people grow in one area tremendously and then seem "stuck" in other areas.

I especially value those who respect all of us who have come out of a difficult, tangled web of deception and are trying to learn what God "REALLY" has in mind for each of us individually and "HIS" people as a whole.

What Are Works? By Martha Knight

"You Are Holy - Prince of Peace"

"You Amaze Me"

Deeds?

Habits?

Virtues?

Virtues of omission, as in refraining from evil deeds?

Service?

Accomplishments?

Attainments?

Whatever they are, they are "NOT" the means of salvation.

They do not put us in covenant with God. As an atheist, I was a do-gooder, as some saw it, a crusader for certain causes which most would see as worthy. I also was kind to others, basically unselfish. There were also human weaknesses there, as there are now, but back then, I had no power outside myself to help me with those. I thought I was pretty much a world unto myself, and must use my mind and whatever abilities I possessed or could develop, to manage my life and carry out any missions I undertook.

Grace is "SO" Amazing!

"I Dreamed I Had an Interview With God"

 "THE REAL TRUTH"

After living a "decent" life, my time on earth came to an end.

The first thing I remember is sitting on a bench in the waiting room of what I thought to be a courthouse. The doors opened and I was instructed to come in and have a seat by the defense table. As I looked around, I saw the "prosecutor." He was a "villainous" looking gent who snarled as he stared at me, he definitely was the most evil person I have ever seen. I sat down and looked to my left and there sat my lawyer, a "kind and gentle" looking man whose appearance seemed very familiar to me.

The corner door flew open and there appeared the "judge" in full flowing robes. "HE" commanded an awesome presence as he moved across the room and I couldn't take my eyes off of him. As he took his seat behind the bench, he said, "Let Us Begin."
