What arguments are you tired of hearing?

[daydreamergurl15]

I'm tired of arguing.
It's like we can't agree on anything! I feel sorry for the new Christians who follow some of our threads while we are becoming so un-Christ like in our behavior to one another.

 

[daydreamergurl15]

I am tired of this old sinful world and long for our Lord to return with His Kingdom.

 

[Revelantion21:10]

Uhhh...

#1 Jesus isn't God HE IS.

#2 Witchcraft works so it is not sin. IT IS.

#3 The Bible is a lie.

#4 God doesn't care about animals.

#5 God is a bully.

#6 God doesn't care.

#7 Other religions are older than Christianity.

#8 Modesty.... "I'm way more modest than you." I'm as prude as the day is long... but... bleh

#9 Any argument based on appearances... condemning those who had no wrong intentions... and were basically ignorant.

#10 New Heaven and New Earth Jeremiah 31:35-36 Psalm 89:35-36

#11 Salvation by works.

#12 You can't have the Holy Spirit unless you are Catholic.

#13 Creationism vs. Evolution

#14 Jesus WASN'T a vegetarian. The Earth wouldn't support vegetarians. Grain doesn't grow everywhere. God does have a reason for everything.

#15 If the Bible doesn't support their idea... either the translation or the whole thing is wrong.

#16 Jesus blood was somehow lacking that it wasn't pure enough to cleanse us from all sins.

#17 Landover Baptist Church dot com. A cult. "Woman are too stupid to be on the internet. Dutch People can't be saved.".... Anyways....I learned "But foolish and unlearned questions advoid."

#18 If woman are enjoying having marital relations with their husbands that they are possesed by the devil.

#19 Stoning people.

I just had about ten more on my mind but they have slipped it.

That we can't take Scripture seriously, that we are made to feel bad if we are Creationist and Conservatives

Well .. on that note, i'm kinda tired of people making everything about the bible .. God gave us more .

Theology has become an exercise in bibleology .. instead of ologizing the theos .

 

[LinuxUser]

There's a great example. Is this forum really for Christians or just to brow beat us

Not quite understanding the point. If we're Christians and we're coming together, you would think that our love for God and the teachings of the Scriptures would be one of the things we would actually want to talk about. Look around in this forum....which is the most active?

Let me make this easy, take away the Scriptures....what then do we talk about in the General Theology board?

that's the problem there . there's a bigotry involved with the world "christian" which implies protestant . there are many kinds of Christians .

Who God is based on what he does in our lives. what love is based on how he loves us. piecing together a comprehensive tapestry of the spectrum of God's light in us through our collective experiences of Him

direct from the source "theo-logy"

not hiding behind a text . but actually showing how God manifests through us . perhaps my idea is a bit too intimate

i did ask for another board for Christian Seekers, but this is basically the point of least resistance .

I find the Christian Seeker icon perfect since we are seekers of Truth eheeh

Are Protestants Christians?

Iknow this may sound silly and probably asking for troubles... but as this question is quite complex, specially surronding the baptism, how would one best answer this question? Is there a good article somewhere that explains this topic in full? I just don't want to give the wrong impression when answering this question.

Scott hahn explains the following in one of his books "Catholic For A Reason" (Emmaus Road, 1998).

"SALVATION AND THE CHURCH...By establishing the New Covenant, Christ founded ONE Church -- through His own resurrected body -- as an extension of His Incarnation and the Trinity's life. The Catholic Church is the universal Family of God, OUTSIDE OF WHICH THERE IS NO SALVATION. This teaching does not condemn anyone. Rather, it simply clarifies the essential meaning of salvation and the Church. Since the essence of salvation is the life of divine sonship, to speak of salvation outside of God's family, the Church, is to confuse things greatly -- since being OUTSIDE God's family is precisely what we need to be saved from."

thanks

The most active - I think GT is, lots of debate. Though I see many atheist, agnostics and liberals that can't stand Scripture and morals really I think those groups can ruin a place like this.

It's very disheartening to see people think Scriptures are just not that important, I heard about but until I saw this place I thought it was a myth. I see that minimizing Scripture is very much in vogue here
