Relztrah,

How refreshing it is to say hello to a fellow believer.

I noticed that both Dave and Joe warned you of the opposition that you are sure to find. You might be surprised when the "openness" at your Church turns to animosity and possibly even bitterness. In my experience with nearly the same scenario, I did feel that I was being "put out" and that I was alone. It is amazing how much resistance there is among "Christians" to the doctrines of Grace.

Quote
"Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father." From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Jn 6:65,66

I wish you the best and I will pray that the Lord gives courage in your attempt to breach the brick wall that you are most probably about to encounter. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/Banghead.gif" alt="" />

I highly recommend Pilgrim's essay "By Grace Alone?" for one of your resources.

I also believe that there is a very good reason why the Lord put you where you are, at this time.
