About the Invisible
Warriors
The IW team was started in
spring of 2002 by a small group who
had
been playing together on a public server. As we started to
build
the team one of our first steps was our name and as a
group
of Christians we wanted something to indicate what we believed,
thus
came the name Invisible Warriors,
named after those who
serve God by fighting Spiritual
Battles on a daily bases,
God’s Angels; the unseen warriors.
Next came the team tag -^IW^- with the -^ ^- on each side representing
Angel
Wings. This is by no means indicating we are
angels, it is
bringing
together the significance of the meaning of the IW.
Though the IW team is not
a Christian only group, it is made up
mostly
of Christians along with a few who are pastors.
The first and foremost
idea behind the formation of this
team
was to expand the opportunities to witness for
Jesus, not in a closed
building but out in the world
reaching
as many as possible. Many have felt that the
internet
was a bad thing, but we have used it as an avenue
to
reach out to people all over the world, talking with people
in
multiple countries all within the period of minutes.
We also felt that it was a
way to show skeptics that it is
OK for Christians to have
fun, play games, and fellowship
in
this type of environment, keeping in mind that talking about and
witnessing
for Jesus comes first.
From the start our team
has been against cheating and we have taken
a
group stance against those who bring this type of evil to the game;
and
yes I said evil for cheating and deceiving in any
capacity
is considered a despicable sin.
To combat cheating we
introduced programs such as
Counter Intelligence,
Match Watch, Missionary and
Reverend; all designed to
limit cheating and hopefully
encourage
those who feel it necessary to cheat to win
to
try something more important, honesty and fair play.
We invite you to stop and
a join us in a time of fun
and
fellowship, but most importantly know you
can
stop in and talk to us about Jesus, your Lord and
Savior
any time. And if you do not know Jesus, I
encourage
you
to stop in and let us introduce you to Him.

Each one should use
whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully
administering
God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should
do
it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves,
he
should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all
things
God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory
and
the power for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Peter 4:10-11

The team tag was modified
to reflect the merge, -^IWB^-
