The following post I made this morning and it was deleted from the countrysidemag forum.

"Christians come forward! [WARNING!!!! VERY CHRISTIAN MATERIAL]

In case some non-Christians ask---yes, some people do live for Christ ALL THE TIME, For some it's an everyday experience or lifestyle.

A personal question, if ya'll please! Just how many "born again" Christians are on this board---LURKERS as well as POSTERS?

Scratch my name down in the first slot, if ya'll please---for 40 years and still claiming the Power that Saves!! He's coming back soon--if ya'll are not ready-----! Glory!! Ole hoot. Matt. 24:44"

This is the entire post. I WILL NOT deny Jesus Christ for Ken, Dave or ANYBODY!!! I think the warning label was adaquate---. Not much doubt about the content I don't believe. If I can't post my Christian beliefs there------! Thanks guys. Ole hoot. Matt.24:44

If anyone recieved my post called Joel Joel Joel by e-mail here could you please send it my way. I forgot to copy it and it is already gone. It was also posted in the where is Hoot's post post. Fortunately at least they couldn't stop it from going out by e-mail. This whole thing makes me just heartsick.

Yeah, sign my up. Saved in 1985. Still stupid but working at it.

Thanks for reposting the "offensive" material Hoot. As for Little Bits post, if someone did get that, post it here too. Thanks.

I was saved in 1982 at the age of 16. It was the best thing I've ever done. Praise the Lord

I had to doubious honor of being the first one to respond to Hoot's post this morning, there was one other after me, then I went to work. Came home to this. Can we get our money back for remainder of subscription, or do we just let them keep sending it? I had left CS, then went back on occassion to mostly lurk. This is my line in the sand. I won't go back. Praise God I can express myself here, no matter how politically incorrect it is.

I don't know what happened at all, but here I am, saved in 1989 by the grace of the Lord God Almighty alone and I had nothin to do with it other than saying yes and changing my mind to agree with God....still changing some too, as I seem to be somewhat of a slow learner in some things.

Now for my preaching...Do not be surprised by this. Cside has chosen sides, I guess... Someone once said on these boards that we shouldn't be surprised when the world acts like the world. It IS a spiritual battle and we know it's already won. These people are precious to Christ and it is grevious to Him that they are so offended by the TRUTH, but God cannot be held down by any of man's rules, regulations, disclaimers or usurption of authority. This is just a sign that we are one day closer to glory and praise God, we know what's coming! Everything is A-ok.

I was born again about 14 years ago. I still remember how it felt, like a burden had physically been lifted from me that I hadn't even known was there! I am still struggling, still learning, but I am thankful that He has patience with me even when I fail Him.

I love countryside but I cant understand there reason for some of the stuff they deleate it is as if you live or try to live for GOD you dont count . Let me tell you if this is what bothers them I am affraid they will lose a lot . I am not saying there is some things that are posted are not to my liking but you dont have to read it if you dont want to . With so many in the world you are going to have different ideas about life. This is a great country the home of the BRAVE and Land of the FREE if they want to take that freedom away Then so be it . If it was not for country side folks they would not have a magazine Cause it is folks like you that write in and makes up most of there magazine and you all do it for free.

Thank God for those who hand out those beautiful tracts. I played the be good game, and go to church...then I found the Lord Jesus, thank God I've been saved by the precious blood of the Lamb. My goodness was as filthy rags...but I am made righteous by my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Hallelujah I've been saved, saved, saved by His wonderful grace. Listening for that trumpet, and ready to see my Lord and Savior.

New to this forum, but count me in!! Awaiting the blessed appearance of my Savior since 1993.

I've been out of town and don't understand what is going on. The only thing in this world that I am sure of is that Jesus Christ, the son of God, died a horrible death on the cross to pay for MY sins. I am not up on the political correctness of computer forums, since I haven't been on very long, but I am pretty sure if Christians can't declare themselves on that forum, it won't have my visits. God bless you all.

-- Robin Downing (Southpawrobin1@aol.com), April 29, 2002.

Amen, bros and sisses! I've finally figured out what y'all are trying to say! Halelujah! I can now truly say that I, too, except Jesus!

Praise for me, you sinners!

-- joj (joj@home.org), May 01, 2002.

I don't normally "dig up old bones" but in this case it's already been done so I might as well respond.

Praise God for opening up the door again to share about Jesus Christ on the Countryside forum with other folks who hold onto the Christ that died for our sins. It's also a great forum to exchange "country knowledge" with each other and it doesn't cost a dime.

A big "Thank You" goes out to Chuck for the temendous job he's doin as the moderator of it.

Sis Doreen also deserves a big "Thanks" for allowing me to post over here on this site after gettin kicked off Countryside's site. She has earned crowns after this life is over for not denying the move of the Holy Ghost and impeding the sharing of the Gospel to all who wants to read.

He's coming back soon--it don't take a genius to realize that. Read about it in 1 Corinithians--15 chapter. REad the newspaper, watch the news. The terrible unrest in Israel is going down like the Book says. VERY SOON all the dead in Christ along with all the "alive" Christians will hear the shout--"Come forth"! If you're alive and not a Christian you won't hear that shout. Please consider Jesus Christ before it's too late. old hoot. Matt.24:44

Jump-off Joe, it is my prayer that someday you can say that and mean it.

-- Little bit Farm (littlebit@farm.com), May 02, 2002.

Little Bit, I think he does mean what he wrote. It says EXCEPT, not accept...but I am with you on what you are saying too...sigh.:)

-- Doreen (bisquit@here.com), May 02, 2002.

Doreen, I'm sorry but I was under the impression that JOJ knew how to put a sentence together. Oh well.

Little Bit Farm

-- Little bit Farm (littlebit@farm.com), May 02, 2002.

Doreen, I was being rude again; sorry. I just couldn't resist. Irene started it by saying "Came to the foot of the cross, and excepted Jesus Christ as my savior"

LBF, I do know how to put a sentence together. I just have a sick sense of humor.I apologize to you, too, Irene. You're a sweet lady.
