Foru.ms - a new beginning and a fresh start

[Tychicus2]

Yes.. the AUTHOR is the Holy Spirit.

Romans 2:29 A man is a Jew if he is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man's praise is not from men, but from God.

2 Corinthians 3:3 You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

And yet you make your point with the very Word of God who is TRUTH !!!

 

[HisGrace58]

That is right. I did not Google socialize . I searched Christian to get here.

What a shame this all is. A real blasted shame !

AMEN Sun!! See ya on the other site!! I go by HisGrace there......

 

[Tonks]

this is f'ing stupid.

 

[HopeBforJC]

Well, I will tell you what is really irking me right now and that is the fact that Erwin was arranging all of this weeks ago. So, while we were all here like dummies debating on which direction this site should take, Erwin had already decided.

How do you know that?

 

[JimfromOhio]

I never felt that this site really stuck to Biblical principles.

So I wonder how many of us will be leaving now?

I won't be leaving however you are right about "biblical principles", according to whose doctrines?

 

[cygnusx1]

From a practical point of view, everything should really function as before prior to the name and vision change, except that now we have a much broader vision and goal than before.

Tut tut.

Who cares to be honest.

Because of the bloody name?

I'm sure no pun was intended here, as we are all , or er, the majority, upset that His name was removed..
that was just uncalled for, KM..

 

[Stormy]

I see a lot of judging of Erwin's motives for the change. He was pushed into it by a group that didn't like the changes of 7/7/07. Like was said on another site: don't play chicken with Erwin.

aww com'on lanakila. i have heard enough of erwin to know that no one pushes him around. it was all orchestrated. we have all been used as puppets. erwin knew from the start, before all this change where he wanted it to go. he was just clever enough for most of us to think we had a hand in it. lol even that it was what we wanted.

i read somewhere from erwin that he actually sold this site, or its management... does anyone remember that or have a link to his post? if erwin is reading maybe he could explain.

Well one thing is obvious from this thread!

The only supportive Staff voice is from one of our Non Christian Mods!

What does that tell us I wonder?

To quote one of the previous contributors who I think summed up this latest travesty so succinctly:

This Sucks!

I want to commend Erwin for this change. Why? Because it is a needed step in accurately packaging what this site has become and is becoming. With this packaging new Christians and naive Christians will not think they are on a safe site spiritually. That is good given the changes of 7-7-7.

I do not commend the 7-7-7 changes. I believe that was when this site abandoned a biblical core (The Nicene Creed and a trinitarian concept of God as well as some foundational biblical standards of conduct) in favor of a WIKI-driven post modern mindset and authority structure.

Given THAT change (7-7-7) the change today only makes sense. I lays to rest Christian Forums (which had been deceased and was only awaiting a decent burial) and accurately describes what Erwin has decided this site is and will be.

Thus today is a step into accurate presentation. The new label is not the issue, the reforms of 7-7-7 are the issue.

I will likely do some apologetics here if the WIKI rules will allow any biblical truth to be presented. I will not view this as a fellowship site, even in the congregational bunkers.

I would ask Erwin to consider removing pre-teens from the site (Actually I suggest 16 or 18 as a minimum age). This place will get darker and I would not want to encourage young people to socially network here.

WIKI-on, Garth.

Steve ...

What was the use of all those options presented to us ? What was the use ? It was a lie to believe they were being considered . I commend him for nothing at this point . I blame him at this point for upset to many Christians without due cause...

AND once again the two disparate meet in agreement.
yeah it's like everyone was bloody well played for fools.

I am speaking from a Biblical viewpoint. What God declares is the ONLY truth.

I will not only be leaving due to these changes, but due to people with HATEFUL and MEAN attitudes like yours. There was no reason for your meanness.

What a shock. The way old Mods operated the pre-teens were at a bigger risk back then.

to that.

Hyperauthoritarian oppressive control freakery is ABUSE. It is NOT authentic CHRISTLIKE "authority".

Yeah, there was a vote thread over the changes, and instead of going with the majorty rules side, he went with the other way. kinda confussed on that.
