Re: Who Wants to Be An Admin

Controversy keeps AFF alive, in my opinion. MB noted it in one of his posts, and I have seen it myself. I don't mind disagreement at all, it is the "spice of life", and I like to consider other perspectives because many times I have learned so much by someone that I disagreed with.

What I can't tolerate is name calling, and derogatory remarks about others. No need for childish behavior like that. If you can't say what you have to say without calling someone names or insulting them, I don't really want to hear what you have to say.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

I did not edit your post. That is what you originally posted and you only edited it after I "quoted" it pointing out the misrepresentation.


Bowas, I provided a link about preterists in general, you guys are simply included with them. Thats it.

You took unnecessary offence, instead of admitting that much of these preterist ideas represent what you believe.

Partial preterism..... Everything else in the bible, eschatologically speaking, has already happened. Only one event remains, the Second Coming. Which can happen at any moment and will happen "in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye" (1 Cor. 15.52). No rapture, tribulation, or thousand year reign. All that stuff has already occurred, fulfilled in the events surrounding either the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 or the fall or Rome. The only thing left in salvation history is the unpredictable "flash event" of the Second Coming......

Full preterism contends that every "end times" prophecy was fulfilled in AD 70. And this includes the Second Coming and the Final Judgment. This view is sometimes also called "realized eschatology" as it contends that every aspect of biblical eschatology has already been fulfilled or "realized."....

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...t1OtDltHtJ4MAg




These guys believe we have been out of prophetical ammo for 2000 years, just reading history of Jerusalem or Romes' fall....your Bible is simply a historical record book for us to gaze at according to them, concerning all future prophecy.




(Generalizing all preterists here)

To repeat myself, You added all that after I responded. I really wasn't offended, I was just pointing out in your original post the error of what you said. You did differentiate after the fact, but the original subject was about Mike Blume and what he proposed and how he, as an admin, might affect you.
No offense, just keeping things straight.

I think your paranoia about Bro. Blume becoming an admin is humorous, Sean.

Re: Who Wants to Be An Admin

Can a trinitarian enforce the rules, that are founded on oneness, without promoting his views that are not the foundation on which the forum is founded?

I'm not a trinitarian... but it is an interesting question.
