Hi to all. I stumbled upon these forums, not as the result of referral from another great Bible-believing forum, but through Facebook of all places.
I'm an AV1611 Bible-believer from New Zealand, miraculously born again in May 1993 and never looked back. After believing on the Lord I got straight into an Independent Bible-believing Baptist church which was pastored by a young American missionary, who was incidentally a graduate of PBI, Dr Ruckmans school, so from day one I got taught the good stuff!
I praise God that I'm still going forward for Him in 2008, currently I'm a deacon in our little local church down here in Auckland, and assisting my pastor with the teaching and preaching and whatever else needs doing, oh and I also song lead the great hymns of the faith, mini sermons each one of them! It's good to be serving the Lord amongst fellow believers who love God's word and try to practise it in their daily lives. I hope that I'm amongst like-minded brothers and sisters in here.
That's enough about me for now, I pray that God blesses these forums and you all as a result. Rejoice in the Lord alway, and again I say, rejoice!
