These stories about people coming out of the midst of Babylon, and being willing to wander the wilderness not knowing where it muight lead, and finding an unshakeable faith are incredible. I know in my spirit that God is creating His Church. The stories here are just the ones who have found this site. I can't help but wonder how many are really out there? Amazing story!

It's reassuring to find there are other believers who are seeking God and God alone in the midst of the religious hub-bub. I occasionally question the "rightness" of my distrust of institutional church house religion, yet always get the same answer ... that religiosity blinds the minds of those who would seek God. Like you, many years ago when I was a new believer, I was dismayed to discover that so-called "preachers" knew less about the Bible than I did. Not that I'm a Biblical authority, but it seemed to me that one in their position would be extremely knowledgable and would WELCOME questions of a spiritual and Biblical nature. HA! How naive I was. I was a sincere seeker, but like you, couldn't find answers from what I supposed to be the obvious source. By hindsight, I see that my legitimate questions made those in authority feel uncomfortable, perhaps even threatened. Like Rosacola in the previous comment, I, too, would like to know your interpretation of the delusion which would deceive the very elect. I have my own ideas; let's see how similar they are. Perhaps it also has something to do with the fact that when we see "the abomination of desolation," we are instructed to "stand in the holy place." I would like to communicate with you if you have the time. Sheila Harris sharris@mo-net.com Thank you for your post!
