Just a gentle reminder folks that this is a support forum for all spiritual beliefs (not just Christianity). You should express your beliefs as you see fit, but NOT challenge others' or suggest a part of a religion's system is somehow up for debate.
I will reiterate -- this is not the place for debate or arguments about religion. Please check out a place like Beliefnet if you want to engage in long religious discussions that apply to your particular faith.
In the same way, I will again reinforce that we welcome all spiritual beliefs here, even though perhaps most of our members adhere to one set of them. Please don't let that intimidate you or make you fearful to share in support for your own belief system.
