  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    Oh yes, of course they do! The 10,000 words it seems I've already wasted my time writing count for squat, right? If there's anything that's confirmed is that you're a certified jerk who couldn't care less about anything other than figuring out any convoluted way imaginable to plug your idiotic...

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    I've done nothing but spend HOURS responding to your ENDLESS parade of redundant posts that are responding to positions that I don't even hold! Get out of my life!

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    I speaks of that in the context of the nation of Israel! No one has denied that the subject of predestination is foreign to the bible. It is the idea that God predestined specific individuals to go to either heaven or hell before they did anything right or wrong or even before they even...

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    I haven't intentionally skipped anything. I'm getting 10 posts an hour to respond to so I don't deny having overlooked it or simply having decided to leave something unresponded to but I'm not trying to ignore you. How did you not just answer both questions when you quoted Romans 10:12? I...

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    I thought you said that you debate honestly? When you respond to what I actually said, I read more until then, you're wasting my time.

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    Well, they hardly have a choice, right? I mean, if you want to build a doctrine from the bible around a god that does not exist, what choice do you have other than to selectively utilize variuous passages as pretexts and to read your apriori doctrine into the text?

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    I'm not interested in debating dispensationalism on this thread. If you'd like to discuss Romans 9 then awesome, otherwise, we'll have to discuss dispensationalism vs. covenant theology elsewhere and at another time.

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    If you weren't lying then you are off on some wild goose chase down a fork in the road that I never took and are debating something that I neither believe nor have I stated. You've seriously misunderstood something. I have to establish no such thing! You've establish no ground upon which I must...

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    I never denied that Paul speaks about predestination. My post proves that Romans chapter 9 is not about predestination at all. That doesn't mean that Paul didn't ever talk about the issue at all just not in chapter 9 which is what you Cavlinist constantly want everyone to believe. You rip the...

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    If I said that it was a typo. I'd have to see the post. We did not inherit guilt from Adam or from anyone else. We are held guilty only for the sins we ourselves choose to commit. Have you not read the New Testament? I don't understand how anyone who calls themselves a Christian can even ask...

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    Nope! As I explained in more detail in my sanctimonious post, hypocrite! The one sentence immediately preceded the other. Maybe try reading through my entire post before posting something idiotic and sanctimonious. That wasn't the blasphemous part. Duh! Because God did it right the first...

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    You're lying. I explained how the analogy would work in under my doctrine. Your analogy has nothing at all to do with what I believe, which you had to know when you wrote this.

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    Look man, all I know how to do is to read what your write. It is not my responsibility to figure out what you mean. If I misunderstood then clarify. Otherwise, my post stands as writen. That's twice I've told you that. It will be the last.

    Romans 9 Is Not About Predestination!

    Well, yes and no. The law was under-girded by grace but that doesn't mean that obeying the law was optional. It was your obedience to the law that gave access to grace in that God knew that there was no way for men to obey perfectly. In fact there were sacrifices intended to atone for sins that...
