| Bob,
It is sad that you are leaving us once again. I will miss you,
Brother. Your notes though controversial always sparked good study and
discussion. I have learned that struggles are not bad just because
they are struggles. As a matter of fact, I think its that old proverbs
about iron sharpening iron... and wow can them thar sparks fly!
God Bless You, Bob in whatever your hands find to do, I know that you
will do it as unto the Lord!
Your Sis,
Nancy

| Go with God, brother. May the Lord continue to lead you and hold you close.
I'll miss your input here. Though your notes sometimes generated a fair bit
of heat, they also generated a lot of light - I think some of the most
valuable conversations we've had in this file in a long time were sparked by
your input.
Blessings, Bob

| Bob,
I really enjoy your notes, they make me sit back and ponder. In fact I
was joking that one of your short notes takes longer to understand than
just about every very long note posted here! But its worth the effort.
I'll miss your input here.
May God bless you,
Jill

Bob,
I do hope that you will trust in God's provision for you. I'm in sharp
disagreement with some of your basic beliefs and I am certain those
beliefs have led and will lead you into seriously troubled spiritual
waters. What else can I say?

I wanted to thank Brother Rik for stating in the conference
that I am leaving Digital. Had he not I may have slipped quietly out
the door without saying anything. But now that I have begun....
From what has been written there may be a slight possibility
that my words were a bit controversial. Personally I do not like controversy,
I like peace with people. But I am willing to risk the present peace
for a greater one that comes with the unity of the Spirit in our hearts
that manifests in Love. This Unity of the Spirit comes by faith which comes
by the Word of God both the written and the spoken (preached).
I appreciate those who took the time to seek the Lord in
understanding the words written by me in this conference. It takes a
humble heart, faith and courage to walk in places that are unfamiliar to
us. In the end though we find that there is nothing to fear for the Lord
is our shepherd and he provides for us and guides us in every step.
Perfect Love drives out all fear.
Now to those that find I am misled or deceived I appreciate your
concern. But I find that unless the Lord has come to you and spoken to
you in regards to my unstable path then it is difficult for me to take
it seriously. Most people who have claimed these things about me for the
last twenty years I found they spoke from their heads and their own
understandings or with some, other spirits were influencing them.
The Lord never fails me.
But in the end wether I am deceived or not it matters little
for you follow Christ Jesus, you don't follow me. So if the Lord in
His infinite wisdom and plan allowed one who is deceived to cross your
path, count it all joy, for He will use all things to reach your heart,
and reveal Himself to you.
I will miss this place but a greater adventure awaits.....
Farewell,
Bob

| Hi,
I personally believe that God has used Bob as a prophet.
I also believe that I have often been a throne in Bob
for many years.
I also believe that God has been a source of *wonderful*
blessing to me through the inputs of Bob as well as Daryl
and others who have labored to share the same general truth.
Which among other things is simply this.
Our understanding of God and God are two different things.
Lean not on your own understanding.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
Even something I understand that is truth may be tainted. I
may have only an intellectual understanding. I may understand
with some faith, but there may be more faith with which to
grasp. There may be aspects of that which I understand that
are flawed. I may understand with tainted motivations. The
possibilities run the gamut!
I believe that part of what Bob said is that with his terminology,
the heart is that subset of our consciousness wherein our under-
standing is absolutely pure. The head is that part wherein our
understanding is really just intellectual and not mingled with faith.
Surrender ALL of it to Him. Surely, God will restore 7-fold,
will He not?
What can I say? Often in my life, I have and will continue to see
examples where I am like Peter in the movie Jesus of Nazereth, who,
just after reconciling himself to Matthew, looked upon Jesus and
said, "I am just a stupid man!"
Thanks Bob. Yours is a hard road. But, keep walking it!
I will miss you.
Keep Ministering,
Tony

If not before, I'll see you in His presence.

| Our Lord has commended Bob to my heart as a faithful and humble servant
who speaks what he hears God saying and acts as he sees God willing.
I have come to appreciate Bob as an earthen vessel our Lord has
sanctified for His use.
I'll miss Bob's contributions here. And, if our Lord wills, I hope to
meet Bob face-to-face in the flesh, but, if not here and now, then
certainly we shall together stand having been made like Jesus to see
Him as He is.
Godspeed, my brother!
