would you sacrifice an animal every year to atone for your sins? I would expect all PSA advocates to answer in the affirmative.

If I am having a problem with my faith -- struggling with my faith -- am I allowed to post here? I don't want to violate any forum rules.

https://files.therebelgod.com/AtonementFathersEQ.pdf https://files.therebelgod.com/FathersAbolishRetribution.pdf I posted these two articles again because I implore members to read them thoroughly to the end. They are rather long, but they are excellent. They deal with PSA and the ECF, and...

what denomination do you think you'd be a part of? (posting here so our non-Baptist friends can participate)

Anybody know of any other Baptist forums? Maybe I'd be better off somewhere else. Edit: Well, in the last few minutes, I'm encouraged about continuing to participate here. Wishing peace to all, including me.

I'd like to know members' heritage, for any who don't mind discussing it. I think it's a fascinating topic. My grandparents were emigrants to the USA from the tiny country of Andorra, and their parents emigrated there from Eastern Europe. So, my ancestors were both Eastern Orthodox and Roman...

I am troubled at being accused of being this person "Mur'. I don't know how these things work, but is there a way I can prove I am not 'Mur'?

I want to address spiritual knowledge, or how we know spiritual truths. I contend that the way we know what is true spiritually is by first-hand experience. The early Quakers were fond of stating something like this: "You say, 'Paul said this', or 'John said that', or 'Peter said', but what can...

Anybody see any scriptural and/or early church support for it?

Let me preface this post by saying that I changed from a conservative to a moderate-liberal after I got grown and stayed that way for 25 years. However, I then saw what liberal policies had done, and I became a staunch conservative. At first, I didn't support Trump in the 2016 Republican...

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Any Free-will Baptists here?

Forgive the following 'rant': The scripture suggests that Jesus experienced all the trials that come on us as humans, but He never experienced old age. As I have entered my seventh decade of life, I find it incredibly lonely. I have had serious health issues in my younger years, but I am facing...

What do you believe? Premillenialism? Dispensationalism? Amillenialism? Do you believe in a rapture? I'm not sure where I am in this, but I am sure where I am not: Dispensationalism, and a rapture theology.

Hopefully this is an interesting and enlightening thread. So, what makes you a Baptist? As for me, I hold to all of the "Baptist Distinctives". I have tried to fit in elsewhere, for various reasons, but I have found it very difficult to give up any of the Baptist distinctives.

For reasons I won't go into, I can only attend evening church services. The only churches in this area that have evening services are Baptist, RC, and Charismatic/Pentecostal. However, since Covid, many churches have ceased their evening services. I have only gone to church one time since Covid...

Jesus said His followers would do greater things than He did. Why don't we see healings and miracles inside and outside our churches like the first century Christians did? Shouldn't we be seeing this occur?

I'm thankful for the Protestant Reformation in some ways, but not in others. Were Calvin and Luther saved? Can you be an unrepentant murderer and be saved? Because that's what they were. They and their followers threw off a corrupt and murderous RCC only to become murderers themselves...

Some basic questions: How do you know God is real? Does God communicate with you? Do you know God, and not just about God?

Glad to be here. I'm a Baptist but have diverse views.
