Universalism basically says that everyone (Christian, Buddhist, atheist, etc) all get to heaven in the end.

Pelagianism says that we, as humans, are capable of achieving perfection this side of the grave without the help of God a variant of Pelgianism today is Sinless Perfection which basically says that true Christians no longer sin (at all, ever).

In reality, by far the majority of heresies floating around Christendom today are merely recycled heresies that date back to the early church. If you look at the early church councils and creeds, all of them were to codify proper doctrine in order to combat heresies.

As far as WoF and it's variants, site Administration DOES NOT agree with these doctrines and I would go as gar as saying that some of the doctrines that have come out of these movements are outright dangerous but they would fall more under that category that RoboOp would call quirky doctrine versus outright heresy.

Thank you!

Little did I know... I could just ask!

And you'll be happy to know that was all my questions.

So - you believe that Revelation is 100% non-literal - 0% literal...?

Absolutely nothing is literal? None of the events described are actual events?

Very few of them. Certainly not as you suggest, that all the seas disappeared or dried up.

I did notice a change in him (if we're talking about the same person... and often, who knows? lol) in the last couple of months, but I suspected it had to do with holding on to one strand, after being given enough warnings to cut all the other strands of his rope. Nasty, arrogant truth isn't the truth needed.

As for what the owner of this site wants? Well, seriously. It's not like this is a ministry. It's a business. Let's be practical here. He wants the income, and has worked hard for it. If you had a restaurant, who would you serve better -- the ones who sit down for a glass of free water, or the ones who buy a full meal and drink? Personally, I'm glad he let's me sit to drink my water. If we want more say, than we need to be buying full meals. Basic business logic.

"Freely you have received, freely give." No one should have to pay, or be paid to exchange God's biblical truth. Woe to the one who exploits God!

Interesting concept with only one major shortcoming................it takes money to keep the lights on here. Server bills to be paid, software updates/upgrades to be purchased, and a site owner who works full time to keep this site functioning properly. Oh yeah, he does have a family to feed and bills to pay.

Just as much as a church needs money to operate, so does this site. No one HAS to pay to be here, but without those who do this site ceases to exist.

I'm talking about an intention, not an accusation.
