And that limited God's abilities?This isn't going to crowds of non beleivers, it's pitching your tent among them.
Well then you better stay off this thread because they are among us already, taking over, like a disease!! (sarcasm)
I'm a believer, and I want to be here.
Can we vote for a new site admin, too? Why not go all out, huh?
drstevej are you running?
amen..more wisdom!Good mornin!!
I gave up a few hours ago and decided to get a little sleep. I prayed as I was drifting off that others would sleep as well and that level headedness would begin to come back into focus with some rest. Often feelings and emotions can run at extremely high levels when we are tired.
I woke and jumped in to find that not much has changed. Debate is good. Someone mentioned earlier about iron sharpening iron and I believe if we set aside our own agendas we will find a beautiful opportunity for growth in the change.
Let me take a moment to again admonish you, as I did last night... the enemy in this battle is not each other. It is not the flesh and blood you see represented on these pages. This debate and the emotions it is inciting are exactly what the enemy desires to bring division among the people of God. Iron ceases to sharpen iron when it begins to dig and chip away.
Don't get personal and attack one another. Don't attack Erwin for following the leading of the Holy Spirit. If you want to waste precious time arguing a mute point all day long... be my guest. BUT... do it in love. Not in bitterness or anger or slander. If that is in your heart, forget nonbelievers coming in and wrecking the place... it has already begun from the inside.
God bless you throughout your day today!! May God grant you all grace and peace as you dwell together!!!
It's testing Him when He says in Songs to pitch your tent with the undershepards. But that's just analogy.And that limited God's abilities?
Popcorn! Get your pocorn!!!Nope, I just want the popcorn concession.
Amen, Joy!!! God bless you Sis!!!I gotta jump in here.
Yes we will face attacks, from Christians and non- Christians alike.
That is okay, we learn when we have to answer for our beliefs and actions.

Erwin never said there would be no RULES here, he just said they wont be as legalistic. It will not be total anarchy like many are envisioning.

Amen again!!! Have a blessed day, Joy!!!Thanks M4W
Our job is to set the example of how to behave like a decent person. We need to keep in mind that the Samaritan was not accepted, yet he behaved in the "right" manner.
Sometimes that is what it takes.
Being a forum moderator has nothing to do with spirituality...Right... there need to be rules, but then tell me why CF can't be in different sections as it was yesterday, just with new un-legalistic rules?
Why should there be NONS-believing mods and staff to say what goes and what doesn't in discussions between believers? Why should there be any non-believing mods and staff on a Christian forum? Unless it for certain games or something?
You don't put non-believers in charge of believing, spiritual "things"!
Since we have voting rights on some things we did not before, can we have a vote about the logo?
