...because Sing4Him claims I insulted other members by stating that salvation is corporate and not individual. I'll likely be banned but I won't censor my answers especially if I'm directly asked. They deliberately go out of their way to try and bait posters there who they know disagree with them. Why else would they start threads on certain topics? They know people will come along to defend their beliefs and try to show them that their straw-men are just that.
She posted this rule as being the one I broke:
*[05] Do not promote anything non-Christian or *unscriptural.* Do not
sign up to attack the Christian faith in the guise of wanting to learn,
or questioning the Christian faith as an agnostic or atheist for the
entertainment of arguments.
Our primary focus is current prophecy, not attacking the Christian
fundamentals in apologetics.*
Then she posted the following that supposedly made the opposite point:
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
*through Jesus Christ *our Lord.
For this is *my* blood of the new testament, which is shed for many
*for the remission of sins *Matt 26:28
But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man
appeared *not by works of righteousness which we have done, *but according
to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing
of the Holy Ghost;which he shed on us abundantly *through Jesus Christ
*our Saviour.
The Bible speaks of individual salvation, NOT corporate.
I didn't pm her back, but instead wrote this on the thread where she also posted the above (minus the info about receiving one infraction point):
So, Christians aren't part of the body of Christ to you then? If Christians are part of one body then they are saved together. Christ is the head of the body. This is a very scriptural concept. You gave me an infraction because you disagreed with my interpretation of scripture and nothing more. An interpretation that has been around for 2000 years mind.
