Hard to believe that people on a Christian forum are so opposed to the gosplel of the grace of God and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery that they would remove a person's posts. Sad to see that those who should love the truth and love the appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ would just remove all posts without any warning at all.

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.
Afraid of truth??

Afraid of truth..? ? ?
The scary thing here is the degree of intellectual and spiritual pride which places your own doctrinal views on the very same level as TRUTH itself..
Our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ is the way, the TRUTH, and the life..
Your views are not on that level...
It's absolutely amazing to me that this would even be suggested.. and it displays the extent of the intellectual and spiritual pride which resides in your minds.
AS IF what you people say is the absolute, perfect, pure, TRUTH..
So, thanks for sharing your thoughts and your opinions.. but try not to get too carried away in your pride here folks..

Mid Acts, Pauline, Dispy to the max!
Where is the pride factor when one is showing scripture that clearly SHOWS new information, a NEW apostle, and a NEW creation which IS the Body of Christ.
One should not have to apologize for having FOLLOWED Gods instructions in 2 Tim 2:15 should they?
"STUDY to show yourself approved unto God , a workman that doesnt have to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the Word of Truth"
I would like to be "harmonious" with all fellow believers...but scripture ALSO tells us that there will be members of His BODY, fellow believers who will walk CONTRARY to the gospel given them by God Himself, thru Paul. That tells me that harmony isnt always attainable when REVEALED TRUTH is set aside and disregarded.
No one is giving "opinions" here...but being "good stewards of the mysteries which have been entrusted to us".
If one doesnt KNOW what the mystery truths ARE...of course they will argue.
This is the DISPENSATIONAL SECTION...if you dont happen to agree and are not willing to LEARN from scripture, then perhaps you should go to the section you DO agree with.
It is not WE who are causing the "dis-harmony", but those who refuse to acknowledge the revelation of the MYSTERY which IS clearly REVEALED in scripture. Romans 16:25, Eph 3:9

This section is here to discuss Dispensationalism.
Just like there are other sections to discuss other topics.
This section is not dedicated solely for posts in favor of this topic, so scoot over and throw out the welcome rug...other folks who believe differently than you are just as welcome to post!

Oh I understand that and welcome honest discussion. However, when its obvious that scripture relating to those questions being asked is NOT being acknowledged, and that arguing for the sake of arguing has become the name of the game...then I think it comes under the category of deliberately disturbing the flow of teaching and dialogue...but then thats just my opinion.
I welcome questions and discussion...but when scripture is IGNORED, then its just a "p---ing contest"...and I dont think anyone is interested in THAT. What do you think?

I think your attitude is not humble, merciful, patient, kind, or longsuffering.
What comes across as the most important thing to you is persuading people to accept your personal views and interpretations of the scriptures first and foremost....and if they don't, to respond spitefully and beligerantly to anyone who boldly disagrees with you.
That IMO, is why you are objecting to non-dispensational views being posted in this forum, and that is, as you asked, 'what I think'.
May the Lord forgive me of my sins, and refesh my patience and longsuffering again and anew to both you, and all people.

Well, I commend you for being honest. Everyone is entitled to an opinion.
You dont know me as a person; only thru the written word on a screen. While Im certainly sorry you feel the way you do, I am always open for constructive criticism.
I dont always do things right...being a human being is kinda funny that way. However, God KNOWS my heart. Since it is to Him I will make an account...I will thank you for your input and take it up with Him.
Thanks for the honesty. We all have areas where we can improve and Im sure willing to look at mine.

And your reply above is testament to that fact, and it made it even more evident to me that all of us should be more patient and kind to one another when we share in this medium.
Some folks, when given the same answer I gave you, would have replied vehemantly.
You did not, so that, in itself, shows your heart is not hardened...even in the midst of holding very strong and zealous viewpoints.
[BIBLE][/BIBLE] May we all be more humble, patient, longsuffering, and strive to always continue to grow in the grace and admonition of the Lord. [BIBLE][/BIBLE]
