• 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.

What arguments are you tired of hearing?

No arguing them here. Just which ones are you tired of??? (Some of them may be harder to express.)

Myself...

I'm tired of being compared to idol worshippers... Jehovah Witnesses and Mormons.

I'm tired of being told the Christ didn't die on Friday afternoon and was risen on Sunday.

What's yours?

Forgive me...

I don't think it is the topic for me. I think it is more the beligerance, dismissal of facts and ad hominem.

I agree. It is evident from some posts that the person doing the posting is attempting to intinidate others into accepting his theology, irregardless of the actual evidence for or against it.

I'm tired of being branded a legalist and having sold out my religion of grace for one of works.

"If my denomination says it - it's exempt from the issue of truthfulness." (Denominational "authority")

"None should limit interpretation of Scripture to self, but I'm the only one who can interpret it." (The appointment by self of self as the sole authoritative itnerpreter)

"If I agree with me, then I'm right." (My teachings are the rule for my teachings - and yours too" The "Tradition" card)

"What Scripture says is not what it says, it's what I say it means" ("Jesus said!" Then you ask where, they give their INTERPRETATION - usually of something that isn't even in the text).



Forgive me...

I'm tired of hearing...

1) Judgment, judgment, judgment.
2) Christmas is for pagans.
3) That knowledge isn't important/or people who meet God in a scholarly way are somehow "inferior".
4) That my favorite pastor is a "heretic". (Subjective)
5) "I'm just taking Scripture for what it says."
6) "I only listen to God and not to man."

I'm tired of hearing that Romans chapter 7 is talking about Paul as a Christian and not talking about Paul while he was still under the law.

I'm tired of hearing that "God" (certainly not my God) predestined certain individuals to hell and predestined others to heaven (not that heaven is the believer's final destination anyway).

Well, those are probably my top two, but, in all fairness, I haven't really taken on either teaching yet...mostly due to my busy schedule.
