Conservative Friend

For some time now I have followed the conversation on the Conservative Friend list server and have always been delighted in its Christ centered testimony.  I look forward to continuing in following the dialogue and when time permits I might make a comment or two.

Although I am not a Quaker - I do have much sympathy for the Conservative Friend Quaker group due to its clear testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ as the only hope we have for all eternity.  I myself have been a Christian believer for many years and come from a Protestant upbringing as a youth.  Today I consider myself a Christain with no particular denominational affiliation.  It is in him (Jesus Christ) that I have put my hope.  Church denominations have taken a back seat in my agenda.

I believe in church community as the gathering of God's children at the feet  of him who is the headstone and inspiration of all Christian association - namely Jesus Christ.  I believe that it is only by his direction that we can hope for success in bringing fruit and glory to his name - of which is our only real purpose in this life as designed by our Creator himself.  I believe that if we give ear to the Holy Spirit (the Light as many of you say) within us and follow His direction we can participate in a joy and peace that passes all understanding - continually.

I pray that this forum will add to the glory of the name of Jesus Christ and that God will bless it's activity richly.

In Christ,
George
