Unorthodox Theology 201 Guidelines
Theists only.
This forum area is primarily for persons who would identify themselves as Christians whether or not their theology is recognized within the mainstream or as orthodox though other theists may participate with moderator permission. Therefore those that would be restricted from posting in Christianity 201 due to a disagreement with the enumerated doctrines, ie 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 may freely post here on any theological subject matter. In this case "unorthodox" is used in the strict sense of a person who denies what has been declared as universal essentials of the historic Christian faith. Examples would be adherents to Oneness, Full Preterists, Unitarian Universalist Christians, Gnostics, Liberal Christianity, Christian Science to name a few.
The second purpose will be for threads on subjects, which although the thread starter has no issue with the above doctrines, the subject matter is so very outside the bounds of normative Christian doctrine totally within the leadership's discretion that it is placed here. In so doing, no judgment or offense is intended to be placed on the belief of said person in the above-doctrines. In this case "unorthodox" is used in a much looser sense of "outside the norms" - Examples of such threads would be pro-polygamy, pro-drug use, proponents of gay Christian churches, proponents of abortion.
The third purpose is for persons who wish to have input from any and all who would claim the title of Christian even on subjects that would be considered "orthodox."
The philosophy behind this area was to recognize that there are persons who would identify themselves as Christian and thus seem out of place in the Comparative Religions Forum, but yet in keeping with our committment here to certain basic core Christian doctrines. Also, it allows threads to be started by those who would want to still be identified as Christian with a particular belief that while not denying an essential is of such a nature that the discussion on that issue belongs in this section or for threads by persons who wish such a non-restricted discussion.

Your stupidity denies Christ, the teaching of the apostles, the scriptures, prophesy and the entire foundation of the Christian religion.
Jesus is not "ho theos" himself (the Father = John 17:3), he is distinctly the Son of God, homoousious (consubstantial) with the Father as the Creeds declare...Last edited by apostoli; 12-17-2015, 08:13 AM.

The following quote is from a powerful Man of God from Lagos, Nigeria (the other one).

37818 you started this thread by saying that a very common Christian belief that has existed for millennia is a by product of the WoF movement which is wrong. And that it's heresy, a false accusation.Does he who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you do so by works of the law, or by hearing with faith? -Galatians 3:5

So am I to understand you actually believe Jesus had to go down to hell in order to pay for mankind's sins?
Christ finished payment for sins on the cross before His physical death (John 19:28-30).

I did not say that. I said that WoF did not invent the doctrine, and that it is not heresy, and it is a false accusation for you to call it heresy.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

I have heard some Reformed teachers explain that the debt was paid at the Cross but at the Resurrection "the check cleared" the work was finished but the redemption had not yet come, would you call this heresy? It says that the Cross was important, but the descent and Resurrection played their parts as well. Is the gospel being proclaimed to those in Sheol not part of redeeming them? I do not support the aberrant doctrines of the WoF movement that transforms faith into magic and God from Lord into our servant, but I'm not sure that it should dogmatically be stated that the complete work of unifying God and Man was at the Cross, I certainly identify it as Jesus, from birth, to perfect life, death, burial, resurrection, ascension, to judgement, He is the atonement, and certainly the Cross was His chosen tool for salvation, and certainly He did say "It is finished." But what is meant by that is uncertain as far as I know, it could have meant his life, or the drink he received, or a third thing not recorded.
Notably I do not believe "Jesus had to go to hell to pay for mankind's sins." The atonement is more than payment for our sins in my view, me forgiving a debt does not mean I intend to offer another loan to that person, but Christ not only say we no longer owe, but we become co-heirs with Him, not only is there an absence of harm, but the presence of blessings, it is late where I am and I only just remembered to come back to TWeb so I could respond, I hope I correctly explained myself, God bless.Does he who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you do so by works of the law, or by hearing with faith? -Galatians 3:5
