  • 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

Correct. The Gentile believers from Antioch were the disciples which he was referring to. This was the point of the Jerusalem council. The Apostles didn't want to add a burden to them which they could not bear, either.

The Judaizers were from the Pharisees(v. 8) and were attempting to do the same thing which they had done to Jews in the Gospel accounts.

A Jewish Christian can be faithful and still obey the Law. They just cannot look to their obedience as leading to salvation. Salvation can only come through believing in Jesus Christ.

They can't obey it no temple, that is why they were warned from heaven Heb 12:25, as the 40 year mark hit. But anyway, good to see you.:)

Thus far, my unscientific count shows that Paul & Paul's doctrine has been referenced 18 times, and Messiah & Messiah's doctrine referenced only 10 times in this thread ... :doh:

"But I have this against thee, that thou didst leave thy first love." Rev 2:4

Jesus said to the disciples there were things they would not understand, so he picked our favorite apostle to elaborate on grace for us, as Luke witnessed.


Acts 20:24 But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.



Jew and Greek, Paul was the great eye opener, as per Jesus.:thumbsup:

Acts 26:17 delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you 18 to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’
