Re: The Danger of Reactionary Theology

I don't see in Scripture that it says to use removal/excommunication from fellowship on those who disagree about how to apply Scripture (rather than on those who deny core doctrines of the faith or live in unrepentant sin). We don't excommunicate or discipline people from the two Rosedale Network c...

Re: Where are the Anabaptists in the UK?

PBs also don’t hold to nonresistance. At one time they did, or at least a sizable faction. Was surprised myself when I read the article on the subject. Interesting. I would suspect that was due to Quaker influences. In my own family lineage, we descend from a line of Quaker preachers, who migrated ...

Re: AP Video: How to Read Revelation & Avoid the Mark of the Beast

Of course, the historic Anabaptist position is the amillennial view, other than a few embarrassing exceptions like the Münsterites. Any group that adopts premillennialism (or worse, dispensationalism) is a sign that the group at one point was drinking from strange waters. I haven’t really encounter...

Re: Personality traits

I have also never heard the term "neurodivergent". This was mentioned in another thread and another poster stated that individuals with autism are not "highly intelligent". I didn't realize this and have found the autistic people in my life to be brilliant and they usually have a...

Re: Biden proclaims this Easter as Trans Day of Visibility

Biden made the proclamation last Friday, “I, Joseph R. Biden … do hereby proclaim March 31, 2024, as Transgender Day of Visibility,” But when asked by reporters on Monday about his official White House proclamation declaring the same day as Easter this year, as Transgender Day of Visibility, he sai...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse

I reflected on how Ukraine deals with catastrophic damage of this nature on a weekly basis.

Re: Is Haiti Near Actual Collapse?

I don’t consider relocating the population of Haiti to America to be a reasonable solution to anything. In particular, the same gangs in Haiti have already established themselves in America. The problem needs to be fixed at the source. For an example of how to fix things, see El Salvador. Thank you...

Re: Is Haiti Near Actual Collapse?

A better question is what’s taking so long. We hear endless noise about Ukraine and Israel. Why not act in one of our closest neighbours? It's very possible to act today. I am currently assisting numerous Haitians. Log onto the USCIS website and fill out an I-134A for a beneficiary and they often r...
