  • 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.

Salvation is a process - past, present & future

We were saved(Titus 3:5), we are being saved now(1 Corinthians 1:18) , and will be saved on judgement day (Matthew 24:13)

Very nice work.

Here is what the CLV says. It's a little bit different; but the overall message is the same:

(CLV) Tit 3:5
not for works which are wrought in righteousness which we do, but according to His mercy, He saves us, through the bath of renascence and renewal of holy spirit,

In process...

(CLV) 1Co 1:18
For the word of the cross is stupidity, indeed, to those who are perishing, yet to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

...In process...

(CLV) Mt 24:13
Yet he who endures to the consummation, he shall be saved.

...Completion

That verse is not talking to the born again, in the " time of the Gentiles."
How do you know?
Because a person is born again in the "time of the Gentiles", not by enduring, but by "all who call on the name of Jesus, shall be saved".

Salvation in the "time of the Gentiles'... is "Justification by FAITH".....not justification by enduring.
Salvation in the "time of the Gentile" is "The GIFT of Salvation".

Salvation is complete. It was completed by Jesus on the Cross, and its offered to "as many as will believe".
= "Faith is counted as Righteousness". Not enduring.
We are saved by the Blood of Jesus.... not by enduring.

The Gospel of the Grace of God...is not....>The Cross + Self effort
