THE TIME OUT FEATURE WILL BE ENACTED, IF A POSTER DOES NOT ADHERE TO THE GUIDELINES OF THIS LOUNGE!! NO NIT PICKING; NO TEARING POSTS APART..(SEE ANNOUCNEMENTS) WE ARE GOING TO RESTORE THIS LOUNGE ONE WAY OR THE OTHER IF THAT BE GOD'S WILL!!!


Absoutely NO POSTS will be moved , deleted, soft or otherwise, by any staff member, unless I know about this first and have personally approved it!! NO EXCEPTIONS!!

We are here to help, and to offer biblical answers to questions, to be obedient to God, and do His will. We are here to share the gospel of Christ with each and every person. To fellowship with each other as saved, washed by the blood of Christ, Christians. We are here to discuss our Lord and His Word that we can both teach and learn from one another.. We will present scripture at all times, when it is called for in a post!!!.Discussion is encouraged, but not arguing.

Explanation of ("We will present scripture at all times, when it is called for in a post") Scripture will be used whenever called for as God's word cleraly states. If persons are basically discussing something or asking questions, or just their own thought process, and does NOT require scriptue in that post , then it is OK.

But as in all areas of many forums there has to be guidelines and rules.

These I am certain will be updated as an issue appears.

You are more than welcome to post, or start a new thread/post!


If you are here to cause an arguement, or teach veiws of a religious system which are opposed to our Lord and His word, then you will find yourself being warned !! If your here to discuss hypothecitly, and respectively, then we will do so!


UPDATE...UPDATE...UPDATE..UPDATE...READ PLEASE.
I have had a NO BAN policy here on the 'lounge'. This I adhered to emphaticaly. The way you gOt yourself banned was improper user names for a Christian setting, profanity, abuse, filth; spamming; promoting porn sites etc; or attacking the admin in post, IE: bashing and name calling etc........
As of today 10/17.. I am lifting the No Ban policy for awhile at least!! Due to the "spirit" of the "lounge" ,and it appearing to have done a backflip, on the "slippery slope", and I see no progress in unity, or restoration, as yet, I will upon my disgression, ban those creating the issue(s). This is not under consideration any longer. It will not to be debated in any form.

Arguing or bickering cannot be tolerated. Please refrain from doing so.

If you are here to discredit God and His word, If so, you are definately in the wrong place. MOVE ON!!

Be respectful of each other please. This I will emphasize.. None less than respect for each other , no matter what walk has been taken,. Dis-respect WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!!(Please remember; It is not "cool" to come in here and critize or show blatant dis-respect for the admin or the mods.


Basic Rules and Guidelines

This is a Christian Web Site and Forum that exposes the deception in Satanism, Witchcraft and other occultic practices. As well as teach and show the Word of our Lord. By coming here as our guest, you realize that you will hear the word of God. If you don't want to hear that Jesus is the only way to heaven, please excuse yourself and do not register. I might add, that because you may believe in "different" things than WE do; Does not mean WE do not love you and care about you! This "lounge" was created for that purpose many years ago..! To LOVE, and discuss all walks that each and everyone comes from!! To me, LOVE and caring, Mercy and Humbleness and meekness towards one another, is a gift of and from God. We might be here to expose the wrong of the occult & sin in your life, but that does not mean we do not LOVE you!!

Please keep language clean as children and families are allowed to participate here.

We are not a repository or a directory for links or ads - please do not come on the board and leave links that are not relevant to content in a specific post. If you are discussing something and it becomes necessary to leave a link, then perhaps this may be ok, but the link will have to be reviewed and it's context must be found to be relevant.

ATTENTION PLEASE

What is a “witness”?

The biblical definition of the word “witness” may surprise you. You won’t hear any of the preachers from what is today commonly referred to as the “feel good” church movement mention it. But you need to understand what God is asking of every one of us who name the name of Christ. This lounge is about this; Witnessing to the lost, the un-believer; etc. in Christ-like love at all times..

- We are all obligated to be witnesses for Jesus Christ.

- We need to be missionary minded wherever we are.

- Witnesses focus on the meaning of Christ’s life, His death, His resurrection, His saving power and on the promise of the Holy Spirit.

- Our witness to others should avoid being ultra condemnatory; (meet them on common ground) but should bring conviction of sin, righteousness and judgment and be aimed at seeing people brought to authentic saving faith and repentance.

- Christian witnessing must be escorted by a holy lifestyle.

- Our witnessing must be completely controlled and dependant on the leading and power of the Holy Spirit.

- And lastly, we must be aware that being a witness for Jesus Christ may be accompanied by a price.


Thank you
