  • 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.

Jesus does not transfer his righteousness onto us. When we are baptized as Jesus commanded in Matthew 28:18-20, our sins are washed away, the Holy Spirit of Grace enters our souls, and it is his presence that sanctifies us (makes us righteous).

That would be incorrect.

We have the righteousness of Jesus because our fallen human spirits were renewed/regenerated by His blood when we were born from above. We are truly adopted into the kingdom of GOD because of that. We were blood bought from our slavery.

The transition from Aaron to Jesus is so orderly and so meaningful. Thanks for laying out some of these things that were going on when Jesus came onto the scene.
And I looked up. the HEBREW word MIKVEH. and. it said means a gathering or a collection of water or HOPE

so where is the word BAPRISM. ??

And Jesus was water baptized to fulfill all RIGHTEOUSNESS. and out still does not say why Jesus was

WATER // HYDOR with WATER. and would like to. your reply??

This is called "believing in vain." 1 Corinthians 15:2
And there some that quote 1 John 5:18 that says , WE know that WHOSOEVER is BORN of GOD. SINN ETH NOT.

and the b b word NOT. //. OU. , his a DISJUNATIVE PARTICLE NEGATIVE and means they can NEVER EVER SIN and just

check the Greek text !!

And the CONTEXT OF 1 John is happening during the GREAT. TRIBULATION. AS the BODY. of CHRIST WILL BE CAUGTH UP

in 2 Thess 2:1 and 3. it does not mean FALLING AWAY as the Greek word is DEPARTUIRE //. APOSTASIA

And in. verse 4. the temple has been rebuilt and the ANTICHRIST is sitting in. the TEMPLE calling Himself god and

read to verses 4-10

The water of baptism and the words commanded by Jesus Christ in Matthew 28:19 wash away our sins and make us Jesus' disciples. The water used in this baptism is the conduit that applies the merits of Jesus Christ's sacrificial blood to our souls. This sanctifies us and spiritually rebirths us into his fellowship.

This means that they personally chose to stop sinning against God's commandments.

It does not mean that they believe they can continue to do evil things and not face any consequences for their sinful choices.


What happens to the spiritually reborn Christians who refuse to stop sinning? They receive the wrath of God instead of eternal life,


Romans 2:8
but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath,
