it sure is

and you are a public nuisance! :LOL::LOL::LOL:
When the Light shines in many cover their eyes and turn back.

John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

Still love you in the Lord.

It's a public forum. If you want private forums have the admin create a section for such activities.
Admin is not required to do this, as all that is needed is for someone to start a PM and invite others to it :)

I don't think anyone coming against Charismatics is lying? Probably more concerned than anything else.

I am a charismatic member of Jesuses body.
And yet I am fair game.
Attacking the body of christ is demonic.

Actual believers with a green light to attack other believers for their beliefs.

End times madness
And this forum incubates it.
How about the poor Calvinists? Spoken of as if we are the devil himself?

Getting a rebuke on the BDF can be like a badge of honor, or getting a gold star or something to that effect. Don't bother me none that's for sure. :)
Well, healthy, mindful, patient and considerate rebuke is a good thing, giving and receiving, but I still believe, the only weapons we should be using or sporting are the words of God.

I am thankful for the variety of threads and users so we can all hangout where we see fit, and also walk away from if we need to.

I am amazed how much of the word ppl know and how much can be learned, that is for sure.

Yeah, lol, the golden star are nice too, lol

quite simply , there is a spiritual war going on here. When a group of christians get together and talk about Jesus etc the enemy is bound to turn up. The more threat you are to the enemies plans, the more attention you will get. You could actually perceive it as a good sign, if your being attacked, then you must be on the right path.

and here we have a fine example of what I said in the post above

Roger cannot keep his hands off anyone's thread who espouses the gifts or even mentions the Holy Spirit

I dunno, but it seems to me a good number of people have left that should have stayed because they were not constantly on the lookout to see who they could denigrade

it's really tiresome Roger. you must love the sound of your own voice and it's not very charitable to constantly constantly do what you and a few others are doing here
Is not that the thing, that we have this much of denominations and views? Normaly of course, I would enter an thread where something is claimed that I as beliecer cant follow. The thing is, can I write my Post, without hurting the Person? And of course this is difficult, because we stay behind what we belive. For to be anticharismatic I have my reasons. But I try to separate the teaching from the Person.

And this forum incubates it.

Reminds me of some scriptures that I read the other day in Roman 14.

It tells us not to quarrel with each other over our opinions. And not to pass judgment on each other, because you are not their master. Let not the one who eats everything despise the one who only eats vegetables. Let not the one Or one esteems one day over another, while others esteem everyday. No matter which it is you believe, you are honoring God and giving him thanks for it.

Yep, sometimes you get one of those red X from someone so theologically thrown off that it is actually an approval.

His self-righteousness is becoming increasingly apparent. He's run out of arguments and switched to running down others instead.

that's a fall back position for some time now. just takes a bit for him to warm up

but for that matter, most who create those anti-gifts posts do that from what I've seen

well, the spiritual gifts are not opinions

and we are to judge ... but not the heart

this is really not about esteeming or not esteeming

I do not believe you are being targeted personally. But it is fair game to target false teachings. I believe there are several such teachings being promoted within the Charismatic groups.
Attacking the body of christ is demonic.
Demons are attacking the Body of Christ through men such as Benny Hinn etc. But to expose false teachings is an act of love to protect the Body of Christ.

Let's take the example of "being slain in the Spirit". There is no such phenomenon within Scripture. Christ and the apostles always raised up the ones whom they healed, and never caused them to fall down backwards, crashing to the ground.

As someone trying to figure this place out, I am appalled when I think that it took the Father to draw "each and everyone of us" to the Son for us to find Salvation. Nowhere in Scripture does Jesus even hint that we should be split up into Denominations and separate Organizations having different belief systems other than what He personally taught to us. And if we want to take this further, what did John the BAPTIST say after learning Jesus was the Messiah? "I must DECREASE, so He may INCREASE!" Even Prophet BAPTIST knew his being there would bring division and he knew he needed to leave.

But on this forum, being of the Denomination of HYPOCRITE seems to be the "Banner" some desire to shine the brightest. And they believe they are saved by misquoting Paul. Even some believe they have a license to sin. I am a nobody, but even I can see that there is no way the Father is pleased by any of this.
