• 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.

The misunderstood Book of James & parsing the covenants.

Any scriptures that support Jesus making statements about grafting in gentiles would be appreciated.
The Syrian woman who made much of her official difference in religious status in front of an audience mainly of Hebrew religious authorities. Also, constant reference to the prophets. Even the Law said "collect for him who has none".

Dispensationism arose from fear that legalists had suppressed the Spirit (which they had). But, dispensationists copied the legalists in suppressing the Spirit also.

Believers who believe that Scripture has meanings (non fundamentalists) are not necessarily legalists. Meanwhile most legalists have become pretend dispensationists.

It's a mess. Take time to untangle it all when thinking of posting more.
