          We wish to welcome you to the One_Net Christian Network, formerly
     the Pacific Northwest Christian Network (PNWCNet).

     This network is dedicated to the Lord Jesus Christ, and His church.
     
     Our desire, is to serve Him by offering a means of communication to 
     share the Good News of our Lord and Savior.  With much prayer, our 
     goal is two fold:

     Matt 28:19-20 
     "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them 
     in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching 
     them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you 
     always, even to the end of the age." (NAS)

     1.  To make disciples.  
     
     We do this by providing an opportunity to allow Christians to come
     together for mutual edification, inspiration, prayer, study in His
     word - the bible, and Christian interaction for the building up of 
     His body.

     Acts 2:42
     "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' teaching and fellow-
     ship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayer"

     Hebrews 10:25
     "And do not forsake the gathering of yourselves together, as is the
     custom of some, but encouraging one another, and the more as you see
     the Day drawing near"


     2.  To Evangelize.

     Obviously, it is hard to baptize with electronic media, but we wish to 
     provide a place that non-believers may come to know the Lord as their
     Saviour.

     To these goals, we wish to make things easy for the participation
     of system operators.  We know the expense that it takes to run a
     BBS.  We believe that as we are given, we are also to give.

       Matt 10:8 "Heal {the} sick, raise {the} dead, cleanse {the}
       lepers, cast out demons; freely you received, freely give.
       (NAS)

     In short, there is NO SUBSCRIPTION or PARTICIPATION fees of any sort 
     to participating Hubs or Nodes.  NONE AT ALL!  And, we assert that no
     fees of any sort should be charged for users who wish to participate
     in the network.

     Since this network is relatively new, our conferences will be of a
     more generic nature.  As the needs arise, we will add new conferences
     to help facilitate more specific topics and isolate reoccurring threads
     into their own message bases.

        Our prayers are that each member of this feed will experience an 
     increase in calls and users.  
     
     Foremost, we pray that every caller and system operator will 
     experience a growth in their relationship with their Creator, and 
     that Jesus the Christ, will be magnified and glorified as we labor 
     together for His Kingdom.  Amen!
    
      Col 1:10 so that you may walk in a manner worthy of the Lord,
      to please {Him} in all respects, bearing fruit in every good
      work and increasing in the knowledge of God; (NAS)
