1 Corinthians Chapter 15
1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
Cool. You should run a forum site. I tried to checkout your link, but your jewelry pop-up ad kept me away. Wouldn’t let me read your page.
I feel like I’ve been judged by a Christian stranger that knows nothing of me.
Only one person is allowed to tell me if I’m properly spiritual or not.
I can’t tell if this thread is serious, Undead Thread material, or something else.
It reads like a poor attempt to get a rise out of people outside the religion forum...
...since it was posted in News.
I’ve noticed the change as well over the last 14.5 years. It is sad.

In case you missed it, “Pagan Heathens” (I have been called such by church goers due to my not being part of their approved group or clique) opposed the fallacy of what a troll posted at that link.
You’re welcome.
That’s kind of the reaction I get, even though I really hammer, hammer, hammer on the love aspect of it. And that is theologically sound: “God is love.” That’s at the root of everything God is about. There are things around that pretend to be God’s love and are not, but I’m not here to push any of them, at least not that I can help.
If love can’t be accepted, then what can? That love crazy ole HTRN may go away, but God won’t. He’s going to force a choice and the environment could shake quite violently.
(2) After reading a few articles on your site about your theology, I am reminded of this:
Jesus isn't running for President. This is a Conservative, activist site focused on politics. The main focus isn't religion.
Feeling are quite untrustworthy as they are often bigoted by the feelings of any individual worldwide and are quite deceptive. You know that. Only Jesus Christ judges all men after death and He judges by whether or not they believed How that He was crucified for our sins and rose again the third day. No works, no boasting allowed as it was His work at Calvary that purchased salvation for sinners. No other works accepted by God the Father, as the Scriptures teach all who read them and they are written by holy men of old as directed by the Holy Spirit of God.
Kinda funny, people keep on going around assuming this HAS to be the church model.

We’re being told we all are not as spiritual as SOMEONE ELSE thinks we should be according to THEIR estimation.
......OK..........
Well, you’re going to get evangelism here. But nobody forces it down your throat. You can always ignore it.
This is about someones knickers in a knot? *eyes rolling*
Pretty much.
I avoid the RF as they’re cannibals. If I need something I call my Pastor who is also a personal friend.
The main focus of life is to glorify Christ, the God of Israel and to live joyfully with him forever. Politics will not save one soul at all, whether it is good or evil, as it is God who determines Salvation as He purchased it with the strength of His Arm by Jesus Christ.
