Tishri1 has stepped down as an advisor at CF and wanted me to relay the following message from her to the members of her home forum. She will definitely be missed. She has been a significant part of CF and we will always remember her with much love and gratitude :hug: I feel bad that I am not...

So if someone continues to sin they are going to hell?

Be careful in how you choose to respond. Insults won't get you very far.

Romans 6:17-18 "But thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were committed, and having been freed from sin, you became slaves of righteousness." Do you notice the tenses in these verses? Though you were (prior...

I believe that we do choose to either accept the gift of salvation or reject it. But I don't see the act of accepting the gift as something to boast about, but rather something to be grateful for. I am grateful for the gift of salvation that God offered to me, but I didn't do anything to earn...

I wanted to comment on this specifically. There is a co-operative effort between God and man when it comes to our spiritual growth, but there is no co-operative effort when it comes to our salvation. There is a big difference. We do have a responsibility to cooperate with God and be willing to...

John 3:18 "Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son." Romans 8:1 "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." John 5:24 "Truly, truly, I...

Why did Jesus tell the thief on the cross that he would be with him in that day in paradise? Did the thief live his life is such a way that he earned entrance into the kingdom? Luke 23:39-43 One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the Christ...

We don't have to prove our Love of God in order to be saved. Our love of God is the evidence (proof) that we are truly saved.

How am I adjusting the interpretation of Scripture to match a core belief? I think Scripture clearly shows that a child in the womb is alive. If a human being is alive then they have a spirit. The two things go together.

Here you go... Jesus said: "But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander." Mark 15:18-19 Jesus is saying that adultery is morally...

I can give you lots of Scriptural support, but I honestly think it would be a waste of time. You ignored my earlier post, which makes me think that perhaps you don’t have an answer for it. I’ll repeat my post and wait for your answer. If I get an answer then I’ll find all the Scriptures to...

We are to follow the laws created by men (government), unless those laws contradict the law of God. God’s law always supersedes the law of men. Even though God allows men to use government for the good of the people in that society, government has the potential (the free will) to go against the...

You didn’t respond to the post I linked.

It didn't really answer my questions. Did you miss my previous post?

I believe that Adam’s creation was unique and shouldn’t be used as evidence that the spirit doesn’t enter into a child until they are physically born and breath the air. When Jesus spoke about the dead burying the dead I think He was probably referring to those spiritually separated from God...

If a child is alive in the womb and not dead, then I think the Scriptures would support the belief that the baby in the womb has a spirit: Job 3:11 "Why did I not perish at birth, and die as I came from the womb?" James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is...

Jesus said: "But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander." Mark 15:18-19 Jesus is saying that adultery is morally wrong and that it...

Viewpoints are different from what God has written on man's heart. If sin changes from moment to moment then there is no ultimate truth. If sin changes from moment to moment then how are we to know what really is or isn't a sin? How do we know if it's God telling us it's a sin or if it's Satan...

It’s not a trap, it’s a question to try and understand your point view. So “certainly” must mean that you believe God changes his mind about what is moral or immoral. Following that line of thought, if two government systems have opposing moral laws, does that mean God has different moral...
