  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hi Paul:
[/size][/font]
Your short one-liner posts are difficult to understand sometimes. When you are talking about water and washing with your ‘make fully wet’ comments, and add your quote above, then things get confusing. We do not want you to unintentionally confuse the third party reader who comes to this thread down the road. That definition was horrible, and “Christ was washed” phrases work to distort things. Those are kingdom precepts that do not belong to the body of Christ. And the fact that you are not sure is troubling. :scratch:

But, thank you for the clarifying statement. :sorry:


In Christ,

Terral
Terral, We were not talking about the one baptism of today in this thread; we were discusing water baptism in the NT, which has no place in the ONE NEW MAN.

Water Baptism in the NT could have been by washing. So i stand by my words, it is possible Christ was washed.

Sorry, :)

D'oh! :sleep: Now I see the light, Paul. My apologies to All. It just goes to show that context is everything. ;)

In Christ,
