Little_tigress, I see in your profile that you use the following Bible Versions: KJV/NKJV/NASB/Olde Charlie Farquharson's Testament I don't think that the Olde Charlie Farquharson's Testament is very well known. Could you please provide some examples comparing it to the NKJV?

Welcome! I am pleased to see others on here who have an evangelistic and apologetic focus.

Actually, it has much to do with the rules, the interpretation and the encforcement. Even staff do not agree on the interpretation of a number of the rules, and that indicates to me that they are either two unclear or not well communicated. God gave 10 commandments. CF has 15 with numerous...

The problems that I see with this new appeals approach are: First is that all staff members, and especially Angel appear to be very overloaded and it takes weeks to resolve any issues. This gets back to the problem of justice delayed is justice denied. What happens is that issues become stale...

This does not say that we were condemned before we sinned. Let's read: Rom 5:12 12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned-- NKJV Note that from one man sin spread - we were not all condmened before...

I have my CF setup to show the latest post in a thread (backwards to the default setting), and I found that lately it started doing the same thing that you are describing for the Journal entries.

Okay - let's stop there. Show me where it says that we were condemned before we sinned. If that were true, then there was a different basis for our condemnation and this impacts the entire presentation of the gospel. Second point - where does it say that we are condemned by the acts of...
