CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
What have you understood about the charcater of The Ten Commandments?? (2)

I've never heard him say. Would like to hear the condemnation from his own lips.
And you know for the record I don't condemn any believer using the law. I hope you've managed to pick up that much after this long.
It's useful to prove our factual need of our Savior as a dire need. And not on the basis of our 'earnings' or 'rewards' for performances, most of which I'd consider phony anyway.

Not at all. Do as you're led. But when you say another believer or even you are potentially damned for not owning up to your sights on these matters you're a whole different animal. Now you have a promotion to destroy. And this is what is being spoken against. The destroyer. The evil present within all men. That is never justified whenever it rears it's head.

Personally, were I in their shoes and someone says toss away the Word of God, I would not believe they were being truthful, and would reject what they say.
I reject that approach as it is quite absurd. Gods Word was delivered to some but are for ALL. No different than Jesus coming to Israel but is also FOR ALL.
This notion that Victor tries for example where he says, in effect, show me where God directed the people of Barbados to do the Saturday Sabbath is complete nonsense. Using that approach unless Jesus or Moses spoke to us directly we might just as well toss the entire document.
That is why that approach should be totally discarded. It doesn't hold water.
Paul for example has many statements and teachings that make the Old Testament directly applicable to N.T. believers and didn't toss a single Word of same.
So you who are working that way just pooled yourselves into irresolvable boxes that won't fit and weren't meant to work anyway.

I see you're still stoking the fire and refuse to believe what the Bible says.

Too numerous to even begin to count. You do understand that it is a basic foul to separate the Word of God of the Old Testament from the Word of God in Christ? That is an elemental rule, applied particularly to Trinitarian positions.
So when you chuck out the Old Testament Word of God on any basis it is a foul to divide Christ Word from God Word. They are the same. Always were. Always will be.
