could the non-Orthodox please realize where you are, and stop posting stuff that is contrary to the Orthodox faith?

I would appreciate knowing if this refers to me and if so what statements you find objectionable...

it doesn't, although this forum is not the place non-Orthodox should be discussing things with non-Orthodox.

Oh I'm sorry, really the CF should make denomination specific forums locked to the specific denominations.

I'll bow out.

God gave us everything we need on the Cross; hence, this is why he said, "It is finished." All that's left is His Second Coming. He's done everything for our salvation - which is what is important and what we need. It is only a matter of if we accept His sacrifice and gift. Therefore, it's a matter of free will and choice.

To read this in a different, more worldly way, imo, would give the impression that God is Santa Claus, giving us whatever we wish for or want. As Fr. Barnabas Powell has said, God is neither Zeus nor Santa Claus.

-- my thoughts
