Hello. My name is Mark. My screen name is Latin for 'Mark, oh really?' - just to have a little fun.

I was raised without any Church. I was an atheist thinking science had the answers. I still like math and science; I use them all the time in my profession. I actually became to hate God for judging me. I sought to disprove the central fact of Christian faith, and I actually came to faith in the resurrection of Jesus. I professed faith at 17, and promptly backslid for 16 years.

I became "churched" when I started a family. I took my first step of obedience when I got baptized at 40. After years, I've found the institution of the church not to satisfy my innermost need. In finding a God in my life that I need everyday, He moved from my head to my heart.

My faith is strengthened by miracles and prophecy. The latter led me to end-time prophecy. I like eschatology and that has forced me to struggle with a host of theological questions, not all of which I've found a solution to either.

Welcome aboard Mark.. There has been a lot of eschatological conversations here, and a lot of disagreement, but the discussions have presented views that I've never considered before, so this is a good forum to learn what many confusing bible passages actually mean.
