  • 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.

A good discusison on the differences between Reformed Calvinism and Lutheranism.


Yours in the Lord,

Thanks for that... I will listen I did not Know that James and Jordan interacted with each other.

I do recall long ago listening to the White Horse inn with Rod Rosenbladt and Mike Horton discussing the same types of issues.

Rod addresses his time with White Horse Inn, Image JI Packer and Rod at the same time.


I really enjoyed Rod... not so much Jordan.

I do recall a very good Lutheran web cast show that was taken of the air some years ago and for the life of me I can not recall it's name.

Edit to add (found it)


In Him,

Bill

It's a comparison of beliefs and not a discussion between the two. Essentially, Dr. White would anathematize all Lutherans since we believe baptismal regeneration, the real presence of the Body and Blood in the Supper and Confession and Holy Absolution.

I would be curious if you agreed with Dr. White's positions.

Yours in the Lord,

I don't think a Baptist can accurately represent the Reformed tradition, since the covenantal and corporate nature of salvation is largely denied, and the view of the Church is much lower.

There is much more similarity between the Continental Reformed tradition, and Lutherans.
