All Denominations Network The All Denominations Network is designed to serve the Christian Community. The conference structure is adapted from the Dewey Decimal System. Messages, conversations, and materials are placed in one of ten major categories. The heading message areas are used for related topics until traffic warrants expansion to the use of sub-topics. Additional message areas are added as needed, up to a total of 100. Further detail is provided by threading. Funding Funding is by User Defined Subscription Fees. Participants at every level are encouraged to contribute appropriately as they are able to offset the expenses and provide for development of the network: Users to nodes, nodes to hubs, hub level to hub level. However, no participant is to be excluded for financial reasons from the fullest possible involvement. Policy Minimum policy statements are issued as needed. Standard echoing protocol and procedures are to be followed in the spirit of Love at every point. We recall that our Master consolidated all Divine Declarations into One Law: Love. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we apply that law to our networking practices. Documentation Updates Your Sysop will provide additional documentation updates as the network grows.

RV 4:11 ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Hymn ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ³ ³ ³ Come, O Thou Traveler unknown, ³ ³ Whom still I hold, but cannot see; ³ ³ My company before is gone, ³ ³ And I am left alone with thee; ³ ³ With thee all night I mean to stay, ³ ³ And wrestle till the break of day. ³ ³ ³ ³ 'Tis Love! 'tis Love! thou diedst for me! ³ ³ I hear thy whisper in my heart; ³ ³ The morning breaks, the shadows flee; ³ ³ Pure, universal love thou art. ³ ³ To me, to all, thy mercies move; ³ ³ Thy nature and thy name is Love. ³ ³ ³ ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ - EOF -
