  • 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.

Or rather this..a whippin He shall go, a whippin He shall go.....: :)

Nahum 3:2 A sound of a whip and sound of a quaking wheel and horse galloping and chariot prancing, a horseman mounting up and blaze of sword and flashing of spear and many wounded and mass of corpses, and is no end to bodies and they stumble in bodies of them.
[Isaiah 28 "scourge"]

John 2:15 When He had made a whip/fragellion <5416> of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers' money and overturned the tables.

Disguise what hook? I explained why I think Non-Denomational Christians are a form of Protestantism and you just say "that's a misconception" without actually backing it up. Then when asked to back it up, you refuse to back it up. How is it a misconception that Non-Denominational Christians are often fundamentalist/Calvinist/Sola Scriptura/various other forms of Protestantism?

There is a sola scriptura church somewhere?! Please tell me where! This is the best news I've heard since I received Jesus, please let me know, seriously! Please please...

Thank you for correcting your previous glaring error :)

I think the big thing here is that someone who isn't RC automatically follows Luther. Or Calvin. Or SS. Or OSAS. Or ... on down the list.

All it really means is RC has lost credibility.

Perhaps check the yellow pages under "sola scriptura churches" in your area :)

Many Non-Demoninational Christians are fundamentalist Calvinists (read: Protestant). Others lean more towards Pentecostal-esque "spirit-filled" belief (read: Protestant). Almost all of them believe in Sola Scriptura

Plenty of ambiguous language there, so I was merely restating what I said originally.

Thank you.

I see a nice connection with that to Revelation 18:11,13 also :blush: :liturgy:

John 2:14 and He found in the Temple the ones selling oxen and sheep/probata <4263> and doves and the money changers sitting
[Nahum 3:2/Revelation 18:11-13]

Reve 18:11 And the merchants of the land are lamenting and are mourning over Her, that the cargo of them no-one is buying not-still
13 and cinnamon and incenses and attars and frankincense and wine and oil and flour and grain and beasts and sheep/probata <4263> and of horses and of chariots and of bodies and souls of men.

[John 2:14]

Yes yes of course! And;

(2Pe 2:3) And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

These people;

(Joh 2:14) And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:

Are these people;

(Rev 18:8) Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
(Rev 18:9) And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

And it happened in AD 70 as I've been shown in scripture and in Jewish history written by Flavius Josephus. Do you see that too?

(Rev 18:18) And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
(Rev 18:19) And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
(Rev 18:20) Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

I have rejoiced in God bringing destruction upon that evil Jerusalem who crucified my Lord.
I shall rejoice in watching it happen again! The Days of Vengeance are soon to come upon that house of Hagar and all who are in bed with her of the RC and the Pr... "come out of her my people!"

(Rev 18:4) And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

It's bizarre that both of those in bed with her fight between each other lol.

Stating that "almost all" Pr's are Sola Scriptura-ists is in no way ambiguous.

Nor is it remotely close to the truth, to use a term I've only ever heard solely used by RC's, to describe someone else. ;)

Strange bedfollows indeed

John 19:15 Those yet cry-out "take-away! take-away! crucify! Him".
Pilate Is saying to them "the King of ye I shall be crucifying?".
Answered the Chief-priests "not we are having a King except Caesar

I appeal to Caesar! Acts 25:11

I wasn't talking about all of Protestantism. I was talking about Non-Denominationalism. However, Sola Scriptura is a defining characteristic of Reformation theology and the groups that grew out of it and the groups that grew out of those groups. What, exactly, are some examples of Protestant denominations that aren't Sola Scriptura. I'm not looking for "Prima Scriptura" or "Solo Scriptura" either.
