    Good morning GiGi! I am sorry if I missed hearing about your mother's passing a few weeks ago. I am glad that she had children that loved her. I can imagine getting ten minds and ten hearts on the same page on what's next might make many conversations as well as past memories. Hopefully you all are not to spread apart where some visiting can be in person. Mostly well is how I think of myself too. My wife keeps looking for more vitamins and watching blood test results. Glad that she wants me to stick around if possible! I still have very limited time to participate here but it remains my desire to stay connected until I can give more time to keeping up with each others lives and thoughts in our journey to a better land however that land will be. Happy to have you in my prayers and those whom you pray with and for. Thank you for your nice reply.

    :)

    Hi Sis GiGi,

    Thanks for letting me know this, and I was surprised and perplexed to see my post deleted. No mention of it to me from moderator(s) just deleted my post.

    Like you, I have noticed many more posts of others deleted as of late. As you know we live in a ever increasing "Cancel Culture" society, so I'm not surprised we may be getting spillover of this mentality here on this site.

    I'm reminded daily that we are truly progressing to the end times, and this verse brings it home to me.

    Isaiah 5:20

    "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"

    Today, Satan and his workers control of almost every aspect of current life, even good and evil are twisted to mean exactly the opposite of what they traditionally have been understood to mean.

    Centuries of proven traditional Christian thinking and beliefs, have been manipulated, and progressively turned upside down, and replaced with "feel good Theology" and misguided doctrine.

    There are so many Christians today "living worldly lives" and putting their faith in "the modern church doctrine" such as Rapture, OSAS, and Grace plus Faith and nothing else, and other unorthodox beliefs that are in total conflict with the traditional Christian doctrine as applied over many centuries, including from the very beginning of The Church.

    Good Bless.

    Dear Bro DN,

    Looks like my post to you informing you that your post had been deleted has been removed also. So, according to the Admin of this site, wither they thought my post was inappropriate (I doubt it) or some people reported my and your posts enough for them to be removed. So, for me, I would like such people to actually respond to us rather than try to silence our views.

    Hi GiGI,

    Sorry to hear your post was also deleted. I did have some private correspondence with the KJBO Admin regarding deletion of these posts and they assured me that they did not remove these posts in question, but rather it was the number of the reports generated by others that triggered the auto deletion. They would not share with me the formula that triggers this to happen.

    At least we know how this occurs.

    God Bless

    Bro Dan, I agree. many of the so-called doctrines taught in today's are at odds with the long affirmed doctrines passed down through the centuries. There have been in the past two hundred years many self-proclaimed teachers who have initiated the dissemination of "new" revelations leading to doctrines that sound good to many believers but are indeed false. We read many of these false doctrines on this site on a regular basis. This makes me sad and concerned for those who believe and promulgate these teachings and for those who adopt them after hearing or reading them.

    Also, I don't know what the criteria are for deleting a post. Does a "report" on a post cause a deletion or do the moderators read through posts and delete those they disagree with? This is unknown to us. But I saw nothing wrong with your post about the rapture topic. Seems that something is fishy here.

    Hi GiGi,

    Thanks for your post here. Looks like you at least, received some attention regarding deleted posts - as I see a KGBO Moderator responded to your query on the topic.

    Since my initial post in this thread passed the initial review by moderators and was posted, it sounds as my posted topic was "deleted" because of being flagged by the community, went against the guidelines, and met "a threshold" to be deleted, or because of some other "unknown reason" as they stated.

    I will follow up with KJBO for further feedback and guidance on my post, as I believe this one post of mine is the first time that I've experienced this issue.

    Thanks so much for your continued valuable input, and guidance on these issues, and especially your insight regarding the scriptures.

    God Bless.

    Comments appearing on the website have already passed through the moderator screening. You usually don't see the spam and other filth that some attempt to post. If a comment says Removed, that means the community flagged it and it met a threshold to be automatically removed. This is only supposed to happen if a comment goes against the guidelines, but lately we've seen some comments be removed for no known reason.

    (Commenters may also remove their own comment through their account, which will then say Removed to others)

    If you believe a specific comment has been unfairly targeted please let us know and we will look into it. God bless you!

    Hello Admin,

    Yes, My comment beginning this thread was removed. In it I was informing Bro Dan that his comment was removed. So, I am thinking someone or a few in this community are targeting the two of us and reporting our comments without merit. Please reinstate my comment that began this thread.

    Hello KJBO Admin,

    Thanks for taking your time to respond to this thread, and furnishing the additional info, regarding thread deletion as applicable on this site.

    I started this thread initially, and was surprised to see my initial post deleted. The only way I knew my post was deleted was because another poster took their time to notify me. In your recent response, you stated some reasons why a post may get deleted, I understand the reasoning, except for the "unknown reason".

    Posters on this site may benefit from receiving feedback (publicly or privately) on their posts - if Deleted, from KJBO Moderators regarding the reason(s) for a post deletion. I know I would.

    Thank you for this wonderful site to share God's Word, grow in knowledge, and encourage others to seek Jesus Christ as Savior!

    God bless.

    Bro Dan, I too liked you comment and have been thinking about writing myself on the same rapture subject. Also thinking of a reply that stated the Sixth Trumpet as some kind of evidence for the notion of a rapture. Heading to Church soon on the first day of the week. God bless our walks in conversation.

    :)

    Hi Bro Carleton,

    Thanks. It's always great to hear from you! Hope you are doing well.

    I always enjoy your posts, as well as your knowledge of the scripture, and I would really look forward to your proposed writing on the rapture subject.

    God Bless.

    Thank you Bro Dan! Just got home, our whole family was invited to a couple in their 80's home who with grandchildren s help fed around 20 of us. Nice visitation. All of the grandchildren s parents of this couple (our peers) are at a funeral of a younger man that everyone loved that passed away by a stroke a little over a week ago. I hope you and your family are well and Gigi's too and everyone else as well. Keep writing yourself, it is food edification for us all.

    Hi Carleton,

    Glad you had a good day with your friends and children. I am feeling pretty well. Had a long meeting with my siblings concerning the affairs of my Mom who passed on May 15th. There are ten of us, so there are usually a lot of opinions and contributions to discussions by many siblings.
