Apparently I joined this site in 2015... Not sure where I have been all this time but here is NOT it... LOL

Already had to put one person on IGNORE... oh my goodness.... Me thinks I shall not last very long.

But we'll see how things go.

Hello @Fields_of_Gold, welcome/welcome back to CChat! I'm glad that you decided to return, and that you joined in the discussions with us this time around :)

The "ignore" button is a useful tool, but remember that while certain thread's and/or members may seem somewhat hostile at times, and being on the receiving end of that is hardly pleasant, it can help us understand where we are in our walk before Him. After all, choosing to treat someone with love/kindness/gentleness/respect is EASY when they're doing the same to us, but when that isn't the case (and we are being treated harshly and unfairly by them instead), that's when we can find out what kind of Matt 7:12 Christian we really are (y)(y)(see Matthew 7:12 below in my signature line)

I think that it's also helpful to have as many brothers/sisters in Christ acting like Christians are supposed to around here as a wonderful and helpful reminder and example to the rest of us ;), and as an example to all of the non-Christians too (who are keeping a close eye on everything that we say and how we treat each other, even though they do not post .. e.g. John 13:34-35).

Again, I'm very happy that you decided to return, and I look forward to talking with you out on the other boards as well :)

Blessings to you in Christ!!

be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
24 Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.

Welcome to Christian chat....or back to, lol.

Sorry to here you already needed to ignore someone already. I hope you will not let that dampen your spirits on being here. May God Bless your time here and Bless you with much fun and fruitful conversations.

Nice to meet you and glad you stopped in:) I've put a couple people on ignore that resorted to calling names and being disrespectful if you say anything they are opposed to. Another thing to remember is that you should report anyone who goes off the rails, they don't hesitate to report others. Just don't throw in the towel bc of a heckler. On a pleasant note, God bless you and hope to see you around the Forums!

WOW.... Well... I did not expect such a warm welcome... My introduction was rather filled with doubt and not all that positive.

Anyways... THANK YOU.... Perhaps I WILL take the time to look around rather than come to a pre-conceived and pre-mature conclusion.

I notice a recipe spot.... Can't be that bad if food is involved.

Thank you for these VERY WISE words.... I will WALK into these forums with your words as a reminder of MY DUTY here. Blessings to you.
