• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Obedience to the word of God is NOT optional -if we persist in disobedience we are not saved

Consciousness of sin is what the animal sacrifices could not cleanse them from (heb10:3).

But Jesus' sacrifice has cleansed us from sin consciousness & has made us perfect (heb10:14, 10).
You clearly do not understand the new covenant, nor are you prepared to listen to what you are continually told.

This is Paul writing to Christians:

But if you are led by the spirit you are not under law gal5:18

Peter tells us to seek knowledge. John tells us if we claim to be without sin and the truth is not in us. James tells us to confess our sins one to another.
Ny NT has 27 books in it, they all need to be accepted!!

All verses are truth in nt?

If every verse is whole truth in the nt, probably you are going to follow 2 Corinth 11:17,18 as whole truth!

Have you heard of context and reading the bible as a cohesive whole?
Scripture proves your simplistic formulae false

You are reading it as a cohesive whole? Then you might address the issue of death caused by kge in genesis.

This is written by the Lord to new converts who need to understand that they are under sin but that Jesus set them free from it by setting them free from the law (eph2:15).

Your understanding of bible suggests that the redemptive work of the Lord is incomplete becz according to you, kge & its curses & death are still around!

Jesus set people free from a law of righteousness.

If while we seek to be justified I Christ it becomes evident that we ourselves are sinners, does that mean that Christ promotes sin?
Absolutely not! If I rebuild what I destroyed I prove that I am a law breaker
Gal2:16&17

You are justified by faith I Christ, and at the same time a sinner.

It seems you reject the words of Paul, alongside the words of peter, James and john also.

If you reject there words, you obviously will take no notice of anyone on Thi website

We are new creation in Christ (2 corin 5:17). We were sinners but now perfect owing to Jesus' works on cross (coloss2:10).

We are Christ conscious not sin conscious.

The above simply shows how little understanding you have of the gospel message

God sees us as righteous (roma 5:1) not sinners becz His Son died for us.

Why do you see yourself as sinner when God sees you as perfect through the blood ofHis Sin? (Coloss2:10).

There's no point to this. Your zeal has taken over from true understanding.
God sees us as perfect while we are imperfect sinners for Christ died for our sins.

I think I should leave you to it.

I was like you once in thought. You need to grow

Bible tells how God sees us. He sees us thru the perfect works of His Son.

For the sake of Jesus blood, God sees us as perfect people.

Seeing the way God sees us thru His Son is faith.

You just reject all the scriptures placed before you, you simply ignore them all. No point in further discussion

We were once imperfect & sinners. But now we are in Christ by grace (1 cori 1:30,31).

That was how we are to see & meditate & confess. Confessing sin consciousness gives birth to sin not victory.
