• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Name a doctrine that you used to believe in but dont anymore.

It seems to be some sort of passive-aggressive game of hers...



If you have indeed given such a succinct answer as sonshine is requesting, then please do link us to it! Otherwise, your failure to make a simple declaration that sonshine has mentioned leads us to assume that you in fact do not believe Christ is fully God and fully man and thus you are arguing against the foundation of all of Christianity.

Do you agree with the following statement: Jesus Christ is full God AND fully man.

If you'd like you and prove to us what you have been saying all along (that you have already answered "yes") by providing a link to where you gave your answer, or you can answer anew right here.
Well one thing is I do not know how to do links and another is that I do not answer to you either.. ^_^

Well one thing is I do not know how to do links and another is that I do not answer to you either.. ^_^

1) If you know where the specific post is in which you gave an answer, all you have to do is right-click (or control-click on a Mac) on the post number on the top right-hand corner of the post and click "copy link location" then paste that link into the text field of a post. Presto.

2) This isn't about answering TO me, or TO sonshine. This is about professing proper, orthodox Christianity - which by the way, is something one must adhere to if they're going to post here in General Theology. So it's not about me, it's about you and whether you think you're above the rules of this forum!

You may end this twisted passive-aggressive tug-of-war that you are getting your jollies from at any moment by just answering the initial question.

The problem is Scripture alone, here we have a very good demonstration without any oversight that one can delve into Heresy with the "just me and God attitude" which is not Biblical.

Yeah I remember an evangelical pastor friend of mine showing pitfalls such as that. The belief that there's a direct line by which God downloads all this esoteric knowledge to you is poppycock.

I used to believe that God hated me and other people and thus I created a doctrine of demons that locked me up in a pit where I could not feel the sweet loves of the everlasting rays of sunlight. nor could I intake the proper vitamin d since I was in a cave and so i became spiritually unhealthy. since then Jesus has come into the cave and taken me out and now that I see the light the Word of God shines clearly giving me the warm comfort of the Holy Spirit, the comfort of men is hell and demons and every unclean thing. but Jesus saved me from all evil, which chiefly I had found was inside of me and not outside of me. now I see that God has replaced the evil with Himself and I delight being a temple of God forever. I am married to God now, no longer forbidding marriage with YAH. now life is a wonderful honeymoon in paradise with my husband and I am compete and whole. I have no need of anything but to look into the eyes of my beloved and kiss him forever and to be embraced by him forever. and i know he will never let go and I have no desire to let go.

I rarely see that word used in the OT of the Bible.
I found the correlation of Exo 15 and Revelation 15 rather intrigueing :preach:

Blue Letter Bible - Lexicon :: H3050
Strong's Number H3050 matches the Hebrew יָהּ (Yahh), which occurs 49 times in 45 verses in the Hebrew concordance


Exodus 15:1 Then Mosheh is singing and sons of Yisra'el this song to YAHWEH and they are saying to say of "I shall sing to YAHWEH that to exalt He exalts.
Horse and one riding of him He heaved into the sea.
[Reve 15:3]
2 Strenghth of me and melody of Yah. And He becoming to me for salvation. This one El of me and I shall adorn Him, Elohiym of father of me and I shall exalt Him"
21 And Miriam is responding to them "sing ye to YAHWEH that to be triumphant He is triumphant,
horse and rider He heaved into Sea.

Allusions in Revelation from Old Testament


Reve 15:3 And they are singing the Song of Moses, the bond-servant of the God and the Song of the Lambkin saying "great and marvelous the Works of Thee Lord! the God, the Almighty.
Just and true the ways of Thee, the King of the saints" [*ages/*nations].
[Exodus 15]

Any kind of doctrine that supports laziness is bad stuff... For example...

Once saved always saved - Now there is no use doing anything for God!

Even in Pentecostal circles people will have gotten the Holy Ghost somewhere in a revival twenty years ago, and now they think they have arrived. They will declare... I have been saved, sanctified, Holy Ghost baptized! As if they have made it and nothing more is required of them.

Saved, Sanctified, filled with the Holy Ghost.... Plop!

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 3:14

And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. - Mark 13:13

"You will never have arrived until you hear those words well done thou good and faithful servant enter in the joys of the Lord." - RW Schambach

I briefly flirted with "OSAS" and the other elements of Calvinism, right after I "came out" of Word-Faith.

Now I hold to a more classical Arminian view: We complete our salvation the same way we began -- by grace through faith, not works. But there does remain the possibility that we can choose to abandon Christ, and if we do so, that decision is irreversible.

So funny that one thinks that osas means being lazy. It means loving God and neighbor as we are commanded. For our works never add up to the Love of God through Christ Jesus our Lord.
Salvation is in knowing the Father Son and Holy Spirit and loving others as Christ has loved us..
:amen:
So simple, even a child could understand :thumbsup:

Is it just me, or has MamaZ gotten more than enough crud in this thread? I'm not saying I've never disagreed with her, but come on.

It's not just you- I've been mostly lurking- and I've noticed it.

It wasn't crud it was concern, but don't worry I won't give a crap about anyone any more.

I didn't mean to make you feel singled out here either.

This is something I often fail to remind myself of- I often like being right- whether I am or not. Actually- everyone does. I'm past the point of truly thinking that anything I post on a message board- no matter how well intentioned- is going to influence the person/people who are actively disagreeing with me. Nothing we post is going to cause someone else to have an epiphany. If there are any epiphanies happening- then that's all God.

It's just that it was a bit much. Stating your points of disagreement- fine. I dunno- this thread could have been a lot better than it turned out had certain rules been established from the get go- however- it's a true disaster of a thread. Everyone is going to actively disagree with everyone else on just about any answer they put up.

I am sorry. I was wrong to think that Christians were to help each other, I should leave the forum since it seems that I caused such badness. All I cared about was her ending in hell for her heresy on other thread and here but I was wrong :(

Actually I have changed my mind over forum post before that made me research and think.
