But I'm determined to get this thing going, I just need help. If you're interested at all in God or religion, or are just looking for someone to talk to, we are here for you, just send us a note!<br /><br />If you're looking to join, also send us a note titled "Worldview." In it, give your worldview (what you view of the world, what religion you are, who you believe God really is), and state that you're willing to join. Also put in there if it's okay for us to publish your worldview or not. And that's it! You'll be a member!<br /><br />Pretty soon, we'll have devotionals for you guys to read, bible verses to help with certain times, and contests to make things interesting. Who knows what else we'll come up with along the way!<br /><br />I can only pray to God that this club will fluorish, we just need people to join! If it is his will, then this club will be successful. It just may take some time.<br /><br />That's pretty much all I have to say for now. I hope we get some people interested in this club, and I look forward to seeing what God does through it. =]<br /><br /><hr><br />Members:<br /><a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.png?2" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a><a href="http://elflordtim.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/e/l/elflordtim.png?3" alt=":iconelflordtim:" title="elflordtim"/></a><br />-------------------------------------------------<br />What we believe:<br /><a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.christiandefense.org">[link]</a> <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.biblegateway.com/">[link]</a><br />-------------------------------------------------<br />How to Join:<br /><a href="http://christianclub.deviantart.com/journal/19394655/">[link]</a><br /><br /></hr> ]]></description>

I am the second member to this club, and was just promoted as a moderator.<br /><br />First off, I would just like to welcome anyone who views this page and say it's alright to send a note if you're curious about anything related to God, or just need someone to talk to. I will be here waiting to answer, as well as Lor (<a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.gif?1" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a>).<br /><br />Secondly, here is a link to my worldview: <a href="http://christianclub.deviantart.com/art/ElfLordTim-s-Worldview-92294286">[link]</a> , something that is required to become a member of this club and helps people to better understand your standing in the world.<br /><br />I am here to help anyone who needs it, and I hope to hear from some new people soon. Feel free to comment, anything is welcome, and stick around! New things are just around the corner. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" /><br /><hr><br /><a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.gif?1" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a><br /><br />Right, Tim's here to help. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" />  As it says - "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!" (Ecc 4:9-10; NIV)<br /><br />(That's right! That "two's better than one" thing is in the Bible!) I pray for this to be a great new season in <a href="http://christianclub.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/h/christianclub.png?1" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconchristianclub:" title="christianclub"/></a>!

                <description><![CDATA[ NatsumeRyu:  I have been thinking a little bit lately, about how this club thing is supposed to work.  When I started this, I had very little experience with clubs.  Seeking for a way the Christian Club could have deviations, and therefore glorify God, was sometimes on my mind.  Finally, I realized that it would be easiest if we simply did as other clubs did - the members submit deviations which they feel are appropriate, and the club posts them with links back to the originals in the members galleries (I.E. <a href="http://bumblebeebuddies.deviantart.com/art/Savage-s-Present-NatsumeRyu-99477397">[link]</a> ).  So, I'm going to go looking through my gallery for things to submit, just like I did for Bumbles.  <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> You too! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/hug.gif" width="38" height="15" alt=":hug:" title="Hug" /><br />To submit a deviation to possibly be uploaded here, simply send a note with the subject "Submit" or similar. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br />Oh, and on a side-note, a new Christian Station based in NW Arkansas has come online:<br /><a href="http://mypositiveedge.com/">[link]</a><br /><br /><br />-------------------------------------------------<br />Members:<br /><a href="http://elflordtim.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/l/elflordtim.png?3" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconelflordtim:" title="elflordtim"/></a><a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.gif" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a><br />-------------------------------------------------<br />What we believe:<br /><a href="http://www.christiandefense.org">[link]</a><br />-------------------------------------------------<br />How to Join:<br /><a href="http://christianclub.deviantart.com/journal/19394655/">[link]</a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ NatsumeRyu: I apologize for not getting ANY of those Deviations in within the month...<br />No, I haven't forgotten about it...I allowed myself to do other things instead - in other words... I put it off D:<br />Well, I was trying to rectify that, as I felt today would be an awesome day to devote to just working on those deviations...but found it more difficult as I wound deeper into the threads that define Christianity.  I found an awesome website (<a href="http://christiandefense.org">[link]</a>), which was really a good source, but...I'm finding it harder and harder to express myself in MS Word.<br />Perhaps it is just that these things are uneccessary - the website I provided earlier (<a href="http://www.christiandefense.org">[link]</a>) expresses all that I really need to.  What then would we add as Deviations? How then are we to share the Gospel via this Club?  Perhaps sharing personal testimonies and experiences is the media of this club.  I will be digging up my testimony then... Let him who have ears listen.<br />And I need to remember to stick "Club" in my <a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a> journal...<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/e/embarrassed.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":blush:" title="Blush" /><br /><br />A few videos I like, and thought I'd share:<br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKJMhUwhbJQ&feature=rec-fresh">[link]</a><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6qN-HBH54o">[link]</a><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elIspF-HS-c">[link]</a><br /><br />-------------------------------------------------<br />Members:<br /><a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a><a href="http://elflordtim.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/l/elflordtim.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconelflordtim:" title="elflordtim"/></a><br />-------------------------------------------------<br />What we believe:<br /><a href="http://www.christiandefense.org">[link]</a><br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, it's one week later and <a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a> feels the need to let you know this club is actually going somewhere. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /><b>NatsumeRyu:</b> First, I'd like to welcome <a href="http://elflordtim.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/l/elflordtim.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconelflordtim:" title="elflordtim"/></a> to the club!<br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/d/dance.gif" width="29" height="21" alt=":dance:" title="Dance!" /> Yaaay!<br />Ok, now that I've gotten that out of my system, it's time to do the updates. <br />Things that will be done in the future:<br />I plan on creating several deviations in the near future (not too near, mind you, more like...in a month...hopefully. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /> ) that include:<br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" /> How to be a Christian (I wanted to make sure we get the basics down first, since it seems like few places today do that). That will come in increments.<br />"...you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!" Hebrews 5:12b<br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletpurple.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletpurple:" title="Bullet; Purple" /> <i>Cornerstone: DYP, LA, aLW Concise 5th Edition</i> analysis by a Christian.  This Cornerstone book is something I'm reading for college, and for those of us Christians going to secular colleges (or other schools), I simply wanted to provide a Christian view point for the book. Will probably be in increments according to chapter.<br />"See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ." Colossians 2:8<br /><img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletred.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" title="Bullet; Red" /> What is a Christian?  That I may be able to fit into one deviation. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br /><br /><br />So, now I'm going to leave you guys with a few links.<br /><br />Christian music is really easy to find nowadays...you just have to look for it. Also, many Christians don't believe their genre of music comes in "Christian".  I'm sure there's at least ONE Christian artist that will make music you like, 'cause there's so many of them.<br /><br />Alternative:<br /><a href="http://www.effectradio.com">[link]</a><br />Hard Core<br /><a href="http://hardcoreradiophx.com">[link]</a><br />Hip Hop:<br /><a href="http://www.hyperadionetwork.com">[link]</a><br /><br />That's all that I listen to online.  Obviously, it's easy to find "gospel" or "modern" music on the radio, and it's also easy to search the internet for Christian radio stations near you, or other online stations that play other genres.  I want to encourage you guys today to find a station that works for you. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />  <br />"Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs." Psalm 100:2<br /><br /><br /><b>Members:</b><br /><a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a><a href="http://elflordtim.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/l/elflordtim.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconelflordtim:" title="elflordtim"/></a><br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />If you've read this and are not a Christian, and were wondering how to become one, I ask you to send a note and I will get back to you ASAP.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Welcome One and All to ~ChristianClub!<br /><br /><b>About this Club:</b><br />    This club has been created by <a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a>, for the purpose of spreading the Gospel (a.k.a. the good news).  "Jesus said to them, "My father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working." (John 5:17)<br /><br /><b>NatsumeRyu:</b> He-llo, everybody! I bet you're all wondreing why I'm here, yes?  <br />Well, I'm going to tell you. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> I created this club because I felt called by God to do so.  After doing my homework on current Christian Clubs available on DA, I decided to go through with it. (Although I should'nt've doubted...but hey, I'm not perfect)<br /><br /><b>What is a Christian?</b><br />Christian means "Christ-like".  A Christian (at the base) believes that:<br /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" />They have sinned (and therefore require a savior).<br />    "All wrongdoing is sin..." 1 John 5:17a<br /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" />Jesus Christ is the son of God, lived a perfect life, and died on the cross, to make available forgivness of sin.<br />    "That if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." Romans 10: 9,10<br /> A Christian has:<br /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" />Accepted Jesus as their personal savior, who forgives them of their sins.<br /> <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletblue.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletblue:" title="Bullet; Blue" />Repented and turned from their sins.  (In an effort to be Christ-like)<br /><br /><br /><b>How to Join:</b><br />    To join this club, you have only to request of it, submit your worldview, and proclaim yourself a Christian (because this is a Christian Club <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />).  From there you may be accepted, denied, or asked to revise or specify some point in your worldview.  At any time you may decide to withdraw from the club, revise your worldview (resubmitted and revised worldviews must be accepted again), or be removed from the club, due to refusal to abandon a particular sin (poor wording, I know).<br /><br /><b>Members:</b><br /><a href="http://natsumeryu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/n/a/natsumeryu.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconnatsumeryu:" title="natsumeryu"/></a><a href="http://elflordtim.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/l/elflordtim.png" width="50" height="50" alt=":iconelflordtim:" title="elflordtim"/></a><br /><br />Keeping all of this in mind, I leave you with:<br />"I say to myself, 'The LORD is my portion;<br /> therefore I will wait for him.'<br /><br />"The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him,<br /> to the one who seeks him;<br />it is good to wait quietly<br /> for the salvation of the LORD.<br />It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is young."<br />Lamentations 3:24-27 (NIV)<br /><br />(I will be uploading my worldview shortly.)<br />ALSO! I encourage you to reprimand the club, or any members thereof, if you find them in sin.  Please help us to be holy! Let's work together as we should! A healthy body for the King of Kings!<br />"We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin..." 1 John 5:18a<br /><br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />If you've read this and are not a Christian, and were wondering how to become one, I ask you to send a note and I will get back to you ASAP.<br /><br /> ]]></description>
