Bible Note: Sir Pent, Thanks again:-) Agreed. Removal from the Forum is not based upon what one personally believes, but upon that which one posts! If posted statements are in (serious)opposition to the Doctrinal Statement of Lockman, they will take appropriate action. I post the Lockman's own Doctrinal Statement for all to see: "Doctrinal Statement We believe that the entire Bible is the inspired and inerrant word of God; the only infallible rule of faith and practice. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only Begotten Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. We believe in the sacrificial and vicarious death of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross and that He thereby made perfect substitutionary atonement for the sin of the world. We believe in the literal, bodily, physical, and Premillenial return of Jesus Christ. We believe that all men are sinners and in an eternally lost condition apart from the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe that acceptance into the family of God and eternal salvation can only be secured by believing in and by faith accepting and receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as personal Sin–bearer, Lord and Savior." I think we'd all agree that rules and guidelines are in place for a good purpose. They apply to us all. Those who chose to ignore- for whatever reason- will inevitably face consequences. Many of us have been on this Forum for some time-because we've played according the rules and have stayed in-bounds:-) If this were a come-one-come-all, it-doesn't-matter-what-you-believe debate Forum, then it would be a different matter. But it's not! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
