Claiming the command to not have other gods is not intended for Christ is just this, as it would only be intended for the Father __________________
Web, thanks! I just learned something.

See, you are edifying often time even if you are wrong about Romans 9 :)

Modalism is probably the most common theological error concerning the nature of God. It is a denial of the Trinity which states that God is a single person who, throughout biblical history, has revealed Himself in three modes, or forms.

Thus, God is a single person who first manifested himself in the mode of the Father in Old Testament times. At the incarnation, the mode was the Son. After Jesus' ascension, the mode is the Holy Spirit. These modes are consecutive and never simultaneous. In other words, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit never all exist at the same time, only one after another. Modalism denies the distinctiveness of the three persons in the Trinity even though it retains the divinity of Christ.

That is one of the best descriptions of modalism I have ever read, and there have been a few. Great post web.:thumbs:

No it isn't. And SFIC does not hold to modalism. I can say that having spoken to him personally. What he intended to say is that it is directed at the Father alone. ( I would not say it that way) but while he believes that it is directed at the Father alone he also believes that Christ and the Holy Ghost exist in distinct personalities at the same time.

His focus was much like our worship and prayer should be. Toward the Father, in the name of the Son, under the guidance of the Holy Ghost.

It is also a good job of plagiarism. This exact quote is found several times on the www, one of which is http://www.carm.org/heresy/modalism.htm

Present day groups that hold to forms of this error are the United Pentecostal and United Apostolic Churches. They deny the Trinity, teach that the name of God is Jesus, and require baptism for salvation. These modalist churches often accuse Trinitarians of teaching three gods. This is not what the Trinity is. The correct teaching of the Trinity is one God in three eternal coexistent persons: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
For the record, plagiarism is against Baptist Board policy.

wow pastor_bob, you got a real bur under your saddle from these folks being banned

i guess the folks higher up than you thought it was best.
 
Pastor Bob does not have a burr under his saddle. He is stating the truth. sfiC and Linda64 were banned wrongfully. There have been so many hateful posts in this thread since sfiC and Linda64 have been banned. People attacking them knowing they cannot come back in to defend themselves. Not only is their unwarranted attacks against the two showing cowardice, but it is not edifying the Body of Christ in the least.

I dont have a dog in this race and really do not care whether they was banned or not. However, from reading this thread and a few others it seems that the powers that be here at the BB had every right to ban them. Shouldn't we respect the decision of those higher than us here and leave it at that?

You should care if they were banned wrongfully, as any Christian should care. Indifference within the Body of Believers is one of the reasons many Churches are embracing false doctrines and becoming more and more like the world.

Most churches should be closed. I've seen too many that might as well be a club or bar. Nothing more than a social gathering.

Anyway, I didn't see any reason for it and they should be allowed back on.
There are much worse and offensive posts and comments and they are ignored.

"SFIC and Linda64 to the list, anyone know why they got banned?"

Good grief! I GREATLY disagreed with SFIC sometimes, but being BANNED?????

My goodness it seems the mods or admins are getting an awfully quick "trigger finger"

(Am I going to be banned for saying that????) :laugh:

OH OH!!!

I just realised that on another thread, about an hour ago, I posted that I thought the administrative council overreacted when they put their condemnation on the Milleniam Exclusion folks. :eek: :eek:

I didnt say I agreed with that aspect of their teaching, only that I thought they should be left alone and allowed to post.

Well......I am not going to edit it. Its my opinion, I didnt say it in a inflammatory way, and I believe I have a right to say it.

So, if I am banned in the near future I've enjoyed my time here greatly, and God bless you all.

(Maybe I'll bump into you at Crosswalk or some other place.) ;)

Grace and peace to all,

Mike

Has BB become a microcosm of what is to come for our society? If a religious thought is contrary to our own view then we cut it off? Who as a Church or person, has the right to hold such power? Somebody here needs to open their Bibles to the book of Jeremiah and study how he was treated. Then read Lamentations.
Anybody remember this quote?
They came for the retarded, I did not speak up.
They came for the Jews, I did not speak up.
They came for the Catholics, I did not speak up.
They came for the Luthorians and there was no one left to speak for me.
Be on notice folks, we are there.

"Luthorians" ? Aren't you being a tad too dramatic with the "They came fors" ? The banned /suspended are not being hauled away to concentration camps !!
 
They may not be 'hauled off to concentration camps,' but they certainly are being persecuted and reviled against in this thread. Colossians 3:8-15 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Many that have posted in this thread certainly have not been kind in their words concerning sfiC and Linda64.

PB, it was a quote from that sight...and it was not intended to be plagiarism. I thought I posted the link. My apologies to the board for any confusion. That was my last post last night, and I didn't re-read it.

It would also behoove you to clarify something before accusing someone of deliberately plagiarising. I have done just this with other posters here on the BB who forgot to supply a link. That is not behavior becoming of a moderator.

This is so wrong

Many of you I have been in pm contact with

Consider you my brothers/sisters

But this is so disrespectful

We are GUESTS here, remember?

We can ppm/email one another

Nothing can stop that

We are NOT privy to all of the details of a banning

As GUESTS, we need to act like it right?

Something I need to remind myself sometimes

This is NOT a church

These MODS/ADMINS are VOLUNTEERS

Lets be appreciative of their efforts

We are not privy to the details of what or why it happened

So we shouldn't judge whether it was right or wrong

As we don't know

We can pray for the situation





So this is all gossip :tonofbricks:

I am an admin on a computer tech forum. When a member is banned, he is banned. There is no discussion of it in the forums. If a member PMs me and asks, I tell them that the person was banned, but not the reason for it.

Spammers are banned left and right without a peep, but when a long standing member is canned, people wonder about it, and I can understadn that. But, as a member of the mod staff elsewhere, I can attest to the fact that there is always a lot of things going on the general populace does not know about, and that it is seldom a hair-trigger decision to ban a long-time member. usually something like that comes after the person has been warned repeatedly about an issue but refused to stop.

With this I agree...
The administrators and mods have the last word...

Actually Andrew does.. It is HIS board.. WE are only guests...

This is not a Baptist church where we each get a vote..
So it does not matter if we approve or disapprove...

Please stop the gossip.

*** Trying to get this thread back on track now....

Who are some others you miss that are not around any longer?

HOw many have passed on that used to post here?

I have left instructions for my wife to notify everyone here in case I die.

Per my call to sfiC, I learned that there was no warning whatsoever. I realize admins and mods do have a responsibility to uphold the rules and regulations set forth by the BB (and any other boards they are members of. sfiC is clearly upset by the decision of the BB, and wishes all to know that both he and Linda64 still loves them with the love of the Lord. Through talking on the phone, I have learned that even though he is banned, sfiC and Linda64 are showing more Christian love than many posters in this thread. My wife and I are sorry to see them leave the BB.
