Re: What I have learned from AFF

This is funny. I used to be 19 and thought I knew it all too.

Amazing how much you don't know that you don't know at that age.

Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.

I just can't believe that mrnbcox no longer believes that Jesus is God. Sad.

As usual, Miss Bratt nailed it with just a few words.

Must have went to one of those UPC Bible Colleges or something.

In fact, you are hard-pressed to find too many in Christendom that don't believe Jesus was fully God.

And to be accurate, since I suspect no one said that or doubted His divinity, it would also be presumptious to classify AFF in general for the opinion of a one (and possibly a dramatic minority).

What you didn't include in your learnings are these type of people:
Repeat Sunday School rhetoric
When in doubt, use the "obey your pastor" card
Never question doctrine
In debate, avoid scriptural discussions, just be a dump truck of scriptures you think are owned by your position.
Those that view salvation has been a huge hurdle, and we will be lucky if we just barely make it
Those that see their own works as part of their salvation, ignorantly using James' Faith w/out Works sermon.
Those that are quick to label people, but slow to enter true discourse with people.
Those who realize they don't know how to biblically defend their positions, and the usual cycle is: attack everyone else, label them, anger, consideration, study, more study, concession of points, and in the end hopefully a robust biblical world view.
I draw my conluson about his divinity by comments made about Jesus praying, etc...

Nobody flat out said he was not God.

Sorry to cause confusion.

I'm just so sad that you no longer believe Jesus is God. You've drifted so far. Anything I can do to help? Do you need to talk?

Amazing how much you probably did know at that age that you no longer acknowledge.

That west coast one sure messed us up, huh? I wonder how many guys leave the UPC as a result of going to school and learning something?
