• 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.

  • 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.

2 Peter 3:9 KJV:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Haggai 2:9 KJV
"The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts."

Matthew 5:15-16 KJV
'Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. '

My Respond:

But 2 Peter 3:9 doesn't say "set free from sin", but that people should come to repentance. Also, what do you mean by "in God's house?" A church building?

2 Peter 3:9 interpetation of promises in scripture is to be set free from sin. God's house is church building and your own house also.

Are you saying that Christians are (or can be) completely without sin in this life?

My Respond:
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; My interpetation:"Just to see your life is not your own you belong to Christ to come to repentance." Yes Christian can become without sin in this life having faith believing in Jesus Christ obeying his word. because you become like the perfection of him.
