Christianity 201 Guidelines

orthodox Christians only.

Discussion on matters of general mainstream evangelical Christian theology that do not fit within Theology 201. Have some spiritual gifts ceased today? Is the KJV the only viable translation for the church today? In what sense are the books of the bible inspired and what are those books? Church government? Modern day prophets and apostles?

This forum is primarily for Christians to discuss matters of Christian doctrine, and is not the area for debate between atheists (or those opposing orthodox Christianity) and Christians. Inquiring atheists (or sincere seekers/doubters/unorthodox) seeking only Christian participation and having demonstrated a manner that does not seek to undermine the orthodox Christian faith of others are also welcome, but must seek Moderator permission first. When defining “Christian” or "orthodox" for purposes of this section, we mean persons holding to the core essentials of the historic Christian faith such as the Trinity, the Creatorship of God, the virgin birth, the bodily resurrection of Christ, the atonement, the future bodily return of Christ, the future bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, and the final judgment. Persons not holding to these core doctrines are welcome to participate in the Comparative Religions section without restriction, in Theology 201 as regards to the nature of God and salvation with limited restrictions, and in Christology for issues surrounding the person of Christ and the Trinity. Atheists are welcome to discuss and debate these issues in the Apologetics 301 forum without such restrictions.

Additionally and rarely, there may be some topics or lines of discussion that within the Moderator's discretion fall so outside the bounds of mainstream orthodox doctrine (in general Christian circles or in the TheologyWeb community) or that deny certain core values that are the Christian convictions of forum leadership that may be more appropriately placed within Unorthodox Theology 201. NO personal offense should be taken by such discretionary decision for none is intended. While inerrancy is NOT considered a requirement for posting in this section, a general respect for the Bible text and a respect for the inerrantist position of others is requested.

The Tweb rules apply here like they do everywhere at Tweb, if you haven't read them, now would be a good time.

    Generally? That non-fundamentalist Christians are not Christian.

    That has been my experience.

      I thought that only cult groups think they're the only True Christianstm? There may be overlap though between fundies and cults.

        At the very least most fundamentalists I've encountered well think Catholicism is a great apostasy.

          I grew up Fundamentalist and I was trained to believe that people who didn't believe like me or worship like my church (especially the baptist church which was founded by God) were not Christians. Christians were hard to find in other denominations, and all denominations that were liturgical never preached "the Gospel" Obviously this isn't true.

                  I don't get it, is my guess.

                    That said,..

                    Oh, I get it now. Use the definition of fundamentalist from your thread to answer the perspective question in mine. I would like another source for yours first, either from your or from another poster. ARe there perhaps different groups of fundamentalists that would hold different views?

                    I am assuming from your response that you would say that they are Christian?

                      There is a serious confusion here as to what a fundamentalist really is. The term is not a clear one.
                      Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

                        Why would they not be?

                          Please also feel free to answer the question.
                          My source is my own observation of the fundamentals that a Christian should believe in. Found in scripture. And brought into the light by the Holy Spirit.

                            You would say that a non-fundamentalist Christian is a Christian or probably not a Christian?

                              Given that different groups would identify as fundamentalist, and sometimes the definitions change a little, yes. Ok, so, same questions, but please also include source of answer, definition, etc.
