I could claim to be Ronald Reagan. That wouldn't make it true. CF is a messageboard. That's it. As you noted above no church that we know about has created this site as an online presence. The only authority is Erwin.

He might. You notice I didn't say how to pray for cf leadership. :P (Psalm 69 comes to mind)

There is . . . please pray for the leadership at CF. Steve is fine but I'm sure he'd appreciate your prayers as well.

Thanks for the invite Protinus. I'll stop in every now and then to see what's going on. :wave:

I just wanted to congratulate you all on getting a place where you can discuss issues relating to your Church and faith without having to fend off attacks. :thumbsup:

It's good to see you too! ;) I don't know how Erwin's new reforms will play out yet but I am not going to automatically think that things will be worse because of them. I think some very good things will come out of the reforms like the loosening up being able to forthrightly tell people...

Are they familiar with the rules and apply them fairly? Then I don't care who they are. We are not electing a board of elders. What about it? Calvinism and the Gospel are strong enough to withstand it. Have you considered that maybe God is allowing them to "flood" into here because WE...

Not to be too nitpicky but CF is not and never has been a church.

Why are we trying to rebuild a wall? Isn't the driving force of Calvinism evangelism? Especially since we know that God is sovereign and that He WILL call His people home? I'd think we'd want to encourage as many people as possible to come and visit . . . especially if we won't go out to...

How-de-doo!

Have you searched the Scriptures to see why you feel the way you do? I still haven't been shown NT evidence that the tithe is for Christians. Someone tried Hebrews 7 but that really doesn't say Christians should be tithing. If you think Christians are commanded to tithe please point out...

Welcome home Erwin.

I just reread it. Where do I mail my check to my High Priest? There's no mention there of giving it to my local pastor. Who collected the tithe back in the day? Paul only asked people to give in order to help out the Jerusalem church.

I know what Malachi says. I also know that Galatians and Hebrews teach that we are under a new, better covenant. I've read it many times. Have you started giving 100% yet like the widow Christ commended?

I can honestly say that being saved since 1992 and a member of Baptist churches until just recently that I have never heard Hebrews 7 used to support tithing.

Who's argued that? :scratch:

Then don't pass it off as some Divine command from above. Did Jesus really want someone living at or near the poverty level to give up needed cash in order to help keep the pastoral staff making $40,000-$60,000 a year? It never ceases to amaze me how backwards we get the scriptures at times.

Do you realize that the Jewish tithe was more in the nieghborhood of 30%?
