yes indeed! that's right!the site is called Christian forums. It's for Christians to come and fellowship. That's what I want to do. I don't want to share my personal feelings about God then have an athiest tell me straight up that I'm stupid for believing in God.
It was a Christian forum, though, which many of us joined and supported in good faith of remaining so. Now, not even the Trinity is being upheld as a basic Christian principle by confession of the creeds. It's going to be more like a tent revival with miked hecklers.This site isn't a church, it is a forum. The police in the US aren't all Christian, but we don't complain, (much). As long as they keep order, thats all that we expect of them, Christian or not.
hey...I just quoted the bible. The bible is my authority, not you, not Erwin not anyone. Take it up with God if you don't like it.
Hmm, this sort of highlights a potential problem.But you didn't have to say anything as it's not the place to say it and can be considered flaming, you should know that, you are a mod.
Ar, but there is a difference between discussing with someone with the same Christological opinion as your own over this or that and discussing the same issue with someone who believes Christ was a crack addict.The site is divisive now. This decision, while chaotic at first, will make it much less so in the future. It is a move towards being a light and not a damaging influence.

I am so thankful Jesus didn't take this attitude when considering the cross in Gethsemene knowing how many times I would be ungrateful for His sacrifice...
exactlyThis shows a major misunderstanding of how the site will be run. It will no longer be run be secret tribunals and governed from an ivory tower. It will be run by the membership with staff having more of a janitorial role. Even reports will be discussed by the public. Staff won't be running the site at all. Non-Christians won't be running the show. TrueChristians won't be running the show. It will be run by the membership. Staff won't be a leadership position at all. That's the way it should be.
If all views are equally valid, none are. Truth is relative, as christianity will be here.
Believe me I am adamently opposed to the idea we have to let go of anything so as not to offend those who don't believe in order to lead them to belief. Jesus was definitely not concerned whether or not He was offensive. Most of the time, the only ones who found Him offensive were the religious leaders of the day.Did CF just become seeker-friendly? It now exists for the world at large instead of for Christians? Has it gone the way of the evangelical church in this country? I hope not.
And nobody wants that - which is why a post like that would most likely get deleted under the reforms, as it would now.the site is called Christian forums. It's for Christians to come and fellowship. That's what I want to do. I don't want to share my personal feelings about God then have an athiest tell me straight up that I'm stupid for believing in God.

The whole point is unity. Christians need to get out of their own little boxes of people who believe the same things as they do. The fact is, NONE of us understand any belief or theology view perfectly.I doubt that because God would lead to goodness. Not division.

Were agnosticteen, for example, a mod... he would see that verse as a flame, and have the power to act upon it.
Under no circumstances should someone quoting scriptures be reprimanded or punished. Certainly not at "ChristianForums".
No one is saying don't spend time with those who are not saved. Do it whenever you feel like it.
I serve God, just as the Holy Spirit guides me.
But we who have private sanctuaries would have liked to keep them that way.
I'm sorry, this post was not politically correct.the site is called Christian forums. It's for Christians to come and fellowship. That's what I want to do. I don't want to share my personal feelings about God then have an athiest tell me straight up that I'm stupid for believing in God.
It happened to me!and i decided never to post in the non-christian section!I've posted my thoughts on creationism (which I strongly believe in) and had many, many athiests attack me and call me names and such. Maybe not you personally, but it has happened on this site.
Yes, and non-Christians are the ones, we are supposed to be serving.Personally, I found it a bit hurtful. I don't think we can co-exist easily if we're going to insult one another, and for my part at least, I'd like to be able to.
