Hey Administrator, is there anyway you can fix this so we can “rate” comments by people?

IN MY SOJOURN HERE…i LIKE to praise all the humble people TRACTORMAN, T. SNOW and those “LURKERS” who read just read watching, and those who allowed me to say what i have to say…at last i feel free to tell what i honestly believe to be true! In the churches I attended I have to be wise as serpent among them….keeping my mouth shut fearing for persecution…. I thought of Micah 7:5
“Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.”
In here there is liberty… where we are free to reason together to iron out the uneven doctrines….if this goes on, all that are truly called will let yield to that Spirit…with refined & accurate doctrines made sure!
“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”2 Corinthian 3:17.
