Why Are These Pictures of Reggie White Here?

 

Reggie and this site's webmaster have a lot in common:

 

  • We both were 43 by the year 2005
  • We played college football against each other
  • We played professional football against each other
  • We are both committed to what we believe

 

And now I realize we both heard the same message at the same time:

 

"Come Out of Babylon!"

 

After Reggie's untimely death, I was watching ESPN and listening to the obligatory rhetoric when a female reporter came on and said,

 

"...Reggie has not been to a "church" in 4 years, he has been questioning what he has been taught and has been on a quest to know the true name of 'God', Reggie has been taking Hebrew lessons twice a week in hopes of being able to read the 'Bible' for himself. He said you cannot trust what others tell you, you have to read and discover for yourself." 

 

That quote re-energized me.  After years of talking to people who would rather be "right" as opposed to knowing the truth, frankly, I had burned out.  I had my fill of debating on forums to sheeple that parrot what they have been taught but never read/think for themselves. Anyway, after realizing that Reggie heard the same call at the same time I did (2000), I eventually started on this site.

  

Statement of Beliefs

 

Personal Path

 

I was not "born again" until my mid 30s. I had virtually no religious background, so I attended "church" faithfully (3 times a week) and read on my own. I read the Scriptures from cover to cover, one chapter after the next.  Over the course of 3 years I served as an intercessor and taught in the children's ministry.As I read various verses it was apparent that certain concepts contradicted what was being taught and practiced in “church”.  However, no one seemed concerned about it. I wrote letters/papers pointing out what I saw. I talked to leadership but tradition for some is evidently more important than the Truth--- so I left. I attended some Messianic assemblies but the ones I found were basically "christian" houses in Hebrew clothing. Since then I have been studying on my own and sharing with my family as part of Torah 1st Society..
