[DZoolander]

Ought I change my religious affiliation to "Christian" so I can partake in a theological discussion I find interesting in the Christians Only section of the board?

Hmmmm!

As a person who does consider themselves a Christian, but is CF denies that, I honestly wonder the same thing. I AM a Christian, but CF denies-- all while claiming that it's forbidden for someone else to say whether or not another person is saved.

Jane - yep - one of those funny contradictions huh? lol

This may sound like a strange question, but are you married?

I think it would be mighty fine for you to desist from being a deist. Take my hand Luke, and together....!!

 

[mkgal1]

If you do.....would you share the link to the discussion (inquiring minds want to know.... )?

 

[Dave-W]

Take my hand Luke,

Cool!

Yes.

Is the an attempt to deny my relationship with Jesus Christ?

 

[mkgal1]

I'm hoping the question was merely about your profile not having the "married" status on it (mods may deny you access to this sub-forum).

 

[2PhiloVoid]

Yes.

...no, it's just to make sure you qualify to post here.

Well pffth. On the old site you could change your faith in your account preferences. Apparently here on the new one you have to involve the admins through a request to make such a change.

As much as I'd like to argue how God's perfect and absolute omniscience fits in with the concept of free will, I'm not going to involve admins in my shenanigans. lol

Lol. Sorry- I was being unnecessarily defensive. I had minor surgery yesterday and was letting the pain get the better of me. My apologies, I was out of line.

I keep all my online forums profiles with minimal information due to security/privacy concerns. Hence the pretty bare profile here.

Sorry to hear that you had to deal with that surgery stuff. And I understand the privacy concerns, so I won't hold that against you, Jane.

How about arguing for Jesus as the Risen Son of God. Surely, THAT'S worth bringing in the admins, rrrrriiiiiiiiiight? Besides, don't you want to rule the galaxy with me?

I believe that with every fiber of my being, and am still labeled as "nonChristian" by CF.

Well.......................................some of your beliefs are kind of.......different. But as long as you'll hear me out on how I perceive my faith, I'll do my best to hear you out on how you perceive your faith. Deal?

Sure, I'm all for chatting respectfully. Would you mind if I ask what particular sub-group of Christian you are a part of?

Yes, I'm in the Christian Church.

 

[Jane_Doe]

Yes, I'm in the Christian Church.

But which particular variety? There are are great variety of beliefs within the Christian umbrella.

For example--
Which books do you believe in the Bible?
Do you believe in sola scriptura?
What do you believe is required for salvation?
How does a person determine what is True?
Are you Armanian or Calvinist or other?
