    As a voting Christian...

    It's looking more and more like republican voters will have Donald Trump as their party's candidate for the presidency. I imagine it must feel a little like being asked to vote for a local rich man who is notorious from being kind of crazy and for being a misanthrope.

    Is Saudi Arabia a place where you would like to live if you were a Muslim?

    World Refugees

    I think many head for Europe because European nations are rich and they believe they will have a wealthier and better life in Europe.

    Is a person who has fled from Syria to Turkey still seeking asylum or have they found it in Turkey and ought they wait in Turkey until they can return to Syria or until they are settled in some country willing to receive them?

    Ought human failure and deeply disturbing sins change your beliefs ...

    No. Do you? How does David's sin relate to your own faith community?

    Ought human failure and deeply disturbing sins change your beliefs ...

    It would have been relevant if it were about your faith community but since it wasn't it isn't. In brief this thread is not intended to promote critiques of other people's faith communities. It is intended for comment about one's own. Your comments were not about your own faith community and...

    Ought human failure and deeply disturbing sins change your beliefs ...

    Your indulgence for deleting your last paragraph. I did so because it is off topic. The thread is about your faith community and what happens in it. When leaders and others in your faith community fail badly or sin deeply ought that to throw you into a spin or make you move on to greener fields?

    Doctrine and standards ...

    Yes, that that is what the thread asks, nothing more. So our little conversation is slightly off topic but I hope it is well received as it was well intended. God be merciful to us both :)

    Doctrine and standards ...

    I ask your pardon but do not apologise for removing the first paragraph of your post. Perhaps asking your indulgence would be better. But I think it is important to notice that this thread is really about your (each respondent's) faith community's doctrinal statement and if you agree with it or not.

    Doctrine and standards ...

    For me, a Catholic, the theological spread in Protestantism is so broad that I hesitate to use any word to encompass it all - even Protestantism is far from adequate and many groups reject it so I sometimes wonder if 66-book-bible-groups would serve better since the bibles used by nearly all...

    Doctrine and standards ...

    Yes, that sort of thing. Other denominations have "statements of faith" or similar things and that is what I have in mind. Catholics have - broadly speaking - the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

    As a voting Christian...

    I am persuaded that being a republican or a democrat is - to a degree - a compromise with worldliness that may lead to dissensions and quarrels among the brethren therefore I believe it is better to choose who you want to vote for on the basis of their character and policies and forget the party...

    Communion - Symbolic or Real?

    I left them out because they are off topic. If you want to make a case by analogy then just say so and that's okay, you can pony up with your verses (as you did) and see how your view is received. I, for one, am far from persuaded that any of the passages you chose has any direct bearing on the...

    Doctrine and standards ...

    Does your denomination, fellowship, meeting, or church have a doctrinal standard and do you accept it and if so do you have reservations about any of it?

    Communion - Symbolic or Real?

    There's nothing rigid about taking what is said in the last supper dialogues at face value. There's nothing in those dialogues to imply that "this is my body" is symbolism unless one comes to those words with the pre-existing belief that they must be symbolic because the bread still looks like...

    Justified by works ...

    I have asked many people about eternal security and the majority are for it. Some are so for it that they say good works is carnal and think of it as a kind of wickedness.
