These guidelines do not replace the site-wide rules (http://christianforums.com/faq.php?faq=rules#faq_rule_0), but rather clarify the rule:
"Congregational Forums wishing to remain safe havens may choose to limit debate to members of their own denomination, insist that all posts conform to their creed etc."
Therefore, posters in this forum and its subforums must post in conformance with all of the following:
The site-wide rules (http://christianforums.com/faq.php?faq=rules#faq_rule_0)
The congregation-wide guidelines (http://christianforums.com/showthread.php?t=6899690)
These forum-specific guidelines (FSGs)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Messianic Forum Specific Guidelines:
The Congregation-Wide Guidelines (http://christianforums.com/showthread.php?t=6899690)apply to this forum. They outline the basic membership and debate guidelines for this forum. Additional guidelines are explained below.
Additional guidelines on debate:
Do not start discussions against the Trinity.
They are more appropriate for the General Apologetics (http://christianforums.com/f13-general-apologetics.htm) or Messianic Way (http://christianforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=967) forums.
No Anti Semitic /Anti Zionist posts.
Do not start discussions on the Trinity. They are more appropriate for the Messianic Way (http://christianforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=967)subforum.
No Replacement Theology debate.
No Anti /Counter Missionary posts or proselytizing.
Statement of Faith*
Yeshua is Messiah.
Messianic Believers are Jews and Gentiles who have embraced Yeshua as the Messiah of Israel (Redeemer of the World).
Messianic Believers incorporate, affirm, and preserve the Jewish identity, Jewish customs, and Jewish style of worship, as they seek to be a light to the Jew first, then to the Nations .
Messianic Believers (Jew and Gentile) are identifiable by four main attributes:
Belief that Yeshua is The Prophesied Messiah of Israel
Shabbat Observance
Kosher Lifestyle
Celebration of the Biblical Festivals
Special Issues:
Membership (for purposes of discussion and debate) also is extended to those who do not call themselves Messianic, but who are believers in Yeshua and practice most of the basic beliefs listed in the Messianic SOF....All the rest of the members of CF should consider themselves guests in this forum, respect the members in this forum, and follow the FELLOWSHIP (http://christianforums.com/showthread.php?t=6899690)posting guidelines.
