• 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.

This feeling that I'm not really a convert

If you believe that Jesus died on the cross to pay for your sins and have accepted His payment for your sins, then you are saved.
You are promoting works (you have to do something) based salvation, something Catholics reject.

For Pete’s sake! She is a practicing Catholic Christian! Please remember which forum you are posting in. Lady Bug is a Christian and it’s insulting to infer that she isn’t. When speaking of being a convert or not, she is referring being Catholic. Nothing else. She was a practicing Christian before entering the Church.
He's viewing salvation as a single event when salvation is more than that.

Well, not doing anything at all whatsoever for salvation sounds Calvinist, lol.
