Also, here is the UPCI (From my understanding the most charismatic of the Pentecostal denominations) stance on the Bible: "About the Bible The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living. (See II Timothy 3:15-17.)" Source If anything, this...

Section II-C of the SBC's statement of faith (Emphasis Added): Source Note the the Baptist statement of Faith clearly states that the Holy Spirit bestows His gifts on believers (The gifts of the Holy Spirit are general the dividing line between charismatics and non-charismatics). The gifts...

My name is Reverend Christian Louis Shields and I am a minister in the Southern Carolina Baptist Association (Part of the Southern Baptist Convention SBC). Let me find you the official SBC stance on this issue, as I am not a spokesperson for them I can't tell you that you can quote me on that...

I don't think you understood my "Cash Example". In it there is no gamble, there is not door number three, nor is there any choice that requires intelligence. What there was a need of was trust. Trust that the man was really willing to give you the cash, and then a call to action, simply raise...

Sure, I came up with it a while ago, maybe one day I will use it in a book. =D

What? Wait? What? This is not true at all, how can you speak for charismatics like that? First of all, Charismatic is such a broad term, and should not be used as a denominational identifier. I am an ordained Southern Baptist pastor and I consider myself Charismatic. In fact, every Charismatic...

If I was in a room with 50 people and I asked tell the group "If you want 50 dollars, raise your hand and I will give it to you" and then 25 people raise their hand and I give each of those people 50 dollars, then who was in control of who got what money? If you where one of the people who...

Wow, at first I thought your argument here was steller, and it made me hesitate in my thinking. But I went to double check with Strong's lexicon and what I found supports my stance that this is indeed about the rapture. The word "took" in Matt 24:39 is translated from the Greek word αἴρω...

Matthew 24:36-44 (Emphasis Added) 36“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,f but only the Father. 37As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking...

Every movie I have ever seen that has heaven as a part of it has everyone, including God, speaking English, so I am sure that English is the official language in heaven! I have seen a lot of movies, so I think that makes me an expert :p Sources: Bruce Almighty Evan Almighty It's A...

Hey guys, For your reference I play GuildWars 2 with SoLA and I had played MineCraft with ToJ. Now, more on my opinion of the issue. First let me say that I do not believe the word God has much power, no more than the word Jesus. I know, crazy right? Instead I think when the Bible is...

What do you, as Christian gamers think? Is "OM-" as in "Oh my ***" ok? Personally, and mind you this is my own beliefs that I don't want to push on you but would love to discus, I think that those three letters constitute blasphemy and are thus breaking the third commandment. In fact, I don't...

Wow, I did not expect so much civility and understanding! Bravo peeps of CGA! Let me push further! Those of you who believe Pre-Destination: Why do we need to try to live a Holy life, evangelize, or repent? Those who believe in Free-Will: Do you believe God is Omniscient and Omnipotent...

Thanks for the input Lloren, but where do you stand? Free will or Pre-Destined?

Hey guys! Here is a hot topic question for you: Does a Christian's stance on "Pre-Destination" matter? If so, how so? Can someone disagree with your stance on pre-destination and still go to heaven, serve Christ, or simply just grow in Him? Or is it a fundamental? Why? :eek:
