My dad says heā€™s the greatest pastor in America; he nearly doubled the attendance his first Sunday! (At the time there were four members; we had seven in our family!)

Really?! :slight_smile:

If you want to know my views on Christianity, I have shared something with @Mark_Rocka in a couple of posts linked here Some prayers for my dad please - General chit chat - Forum - Banjo Ben Clark . You can share it with you dad to see what he thinks! :wink:

But otherwise, we avoid serious religious subject matter discussion here in this forum. If you are of DL age and/or you have consent from your parents, we can discuss privately. We have a private thread for Christianity discussion, I can add you in if youā€™d want so you can review what was discussed!

I totally understand that! I would love to be a part of that thread. Understand, though, that I process everything I hear through the Scriptures, and I strive to be able to back up anything and everything by the Scriptures and/or Biblical principles.

Without wanting to start a debate anything, I just want to clear this statement up a bit - we do try not to argue, :grinning: but Ben is a Christian and his forum is a great place for us to share Christian discussions in the context of music related things. Thatā€™s what many of us really appreciate about this site!

Excellent, I guess you are not too far from the kingdom of God! Just sent out an invite to you to join in the private Bible discussion thread! :+1:

See, you understand it, but the world (I donā€™t mean the folks here) doesnā€™t seem to understand itā€¦ They want to know my views on Christianity! :wink:

@Flatpickin_Libby, what do you mean by Christian discussion in the context of music related thing? You have an example link? Or, you mean Christian music related discussion?

No, they donā€™tā€¦ Thatā€™s the part you donā€™t understand :laughing:

@Mason_Crone
I knowā€¦

You see, I remember @Archie recently posted what people used to say ā€œGod moves in mysterious ways!ā€ I donā€™t know if that is in the Bible, or if it is a biblical observation, but we know something for a fact now from some replies here. ā€œPeople move in mysterious ways!ā€ lol.

I just mean itā€™s great how this forum often has a Christian perspective to things (although of course many people have different worldviews) and we can all come together in a friendly way. We all, however, prefer to stay out of ā€œfake churchā€ discussions. :slight_smile:

OK

Maybe I missed it?? Or else I would have countered it! :wink:

(I think I know what @Mason_Crone is thinking now! But hey, it is free speech, not free approved speech (constitutional breakdown!) as you have been made to believe. You get it now?? :slight_smile: )

We should drop this, @JohnM. Thanks!

Itā€™s my forum so itā€™s not a free speech environment. All speech here is subject to my approval.

@BanjoBen, I know it is your forum. But just want to clarify thisā€¦

Is that the content that needs your approval or the viewpoint itself? For example, you have the right to allow or not allow any discussion, say religious discussion. But do you approve or disapprove based on a viewpoint in the discussion you allowed? You shouldnā€™t do the latter. Just my thoughts to you.

If I think a viewpoint is wrong and harmful, I will ban it. Iā€™m vehemently opposed to the prosperity health and wealth gospel, and will not allow it to be propagated here. This would apply to many of your views. Thank you for respecting that.
