Awaiting a good opening post
In order to start a new topic, you need to formulate the premise. What about news updates? Which news specifically? What is your opinion?

Re: Awaiting a good opening post
Your opening post does contain a lot of information that you have assembled from Other Sites and I am not challenging your years of study regarding this topic. EvC, however, will challenge each premise. Are you prepared to discuss this type of topic with a room of skeptics, giving them proper respect and devoting some time to defending your views---even by listing other sources whom you trust?
Our Forum Guidelines insist that you should
Make the argument in your own words and use links as supporting references.
Avoid lengthy cut-n-pastes. Introduce the point in your own words and provide a link to your source as a reference.
. I realize that you don't like using quote boxes or other formal forum software, but if you hope to leave us with a topic that may be discussed at any length versus another incomplete one for the archives, I suggest you do take the time to appear easily understood.
Keep in mind that you will find few who are inclined to believe biblical Inerrency or even inspiration at this forum. Few will take the time to refer to your scripture references or even to watch (what I found to be) inspirational Gaither You Tube videos.
If you can handle the inevitable criticism and want to take the time to explain to the uninitiated why you feel the way you do about the Bible and the teaching of other prophecy teachers, I will promote one topic which combines your previous two.
This may or may not be received with interest at these forums, but the clearer you are at expressing yourself, the more likely you are to get a response. As a Christian, you might ask yourself whether you want to engage a skeptical,humanist, highly educated audience or whether it is easier (and safer) to stick with Christian Prophecy Forums.
I will tell you from personal experience that this is a hard audience to convince. It is good practice for you personally, in regards to writing your convictions and reasoning behind your beliefs.
