I'm a Christian believer and just as I am before God living out of who and where I am in the circumstances in which I know and serve the Lord; not something people or the world impose on a person or situation as what have you (1 Corinthians 7:17-24). I live by faith and I invest my physical life to give what I can't keep and gain what I can't lose for eternal dividends (Hebrews 10:35-39). I'm not so much a person of spiritual depth as a person of faith. My passion and conviction come not from direct spiritual experience, but from my unwavering belief in the Word of God (the Holy Bible). I have been a Baptist for more than 10 years, but far more important than being a Baptist is the Word of God. I espouse a church only insofar as it follows the Word of God. When a church departs from the Word of God, it is ICHABOD. (My standing before God is based solely on the merits of Christ and on nothing that I either do or don't do -Romans 14:5,22; 1 John 3:21)
