You can call me pal.
I have no relation to Paypal because I don't want to have to deal with others $$$

I live in the Abraham Lincoln state.
Anyway, I've never been a regular church goer. In my school days I once studied with the Jehovah Witness.
They were kind of hard on me about dressing. They had to many rules for that and it made me uncomfortable.
I don't believe in there doctrine today. I just consider myself non-denominational Christian.

To sum this up with what Jesus says: Matt. 23: 8-10
Jesus says do not call anyone father, rabbi or teacher. But you only have one teacher who is God. Therefore, I trust in the bible
who speaks the truth and talks to mankind. This is the way God speaks so let us obey and listen.

Ok, looking forward to seeing everyone on the board.

Hello @i'myourpal
Welcome to Talk Jesus and online Community of Christian Believers in Jesus Christ.
I hope you will find fellowship, and growth in God's Word while you are here.

With that being said, should you be addressed as a Brother or Sister in Christ Jesus?

With the Love of Christ Jesus.

Hi Pal

It is good to trust the Lord as your personal Good Shepherd & Friend in helping you to follow Him & His words thus being His disciple and not a disciple of something else.

John 8:30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.

31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

John 15:1I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

May the Lord bless you & keep you. May He shine His face upon you & give you His peace.
