Foundation Upon Which MyPraize.com is founded and operated. 1. Scripture is Truth This means that you are allowed to discuss interpretations of Scripture, but there are no comments allowed such as, “Scripture is False” “Scripture is not the Word of God.” Etc… 2. Scripture is the inspired, inerrant and infallible Word of God As such feel free to discuss and debate what God meant when He spoke His Word. Feel free to discuss interpretations of Scripture, and differences in versions of printed Bibles. Do not make heretical statements such as, “All of Scripture is not inspired.” Or “God is not infallible” 3. Scripture consists of 66 books, 39 Old Testament, and 27 New Testament Within the 66 books feel free to debate such things as to “apparent” conflicts, or “appearent” errors… Do not take the freedom to say, “Paul was not inspired and thus should not be included in the Canon.” Do not push your “So called Scripture” into this site. 4. Jesus Christ :Yeshua is The Savior, Messiah, Son of God who was prophesied about in the Old Testament and manifested in the flesh and fulfilled ALL the prophecies. His fulfillment of the Torah is recorded in the New Testament. As such, please feel free to discuss how many of the OT prophecies where fulfilled and when. Discuss what He did for us. Debate why He did or did not do certain things that would have been interesting had He done, or not done them. 5. Jesus Christ is God 6. The Father is God. 7. The Holy Spirit is God. Rules for discussion: 1. You are free to debate interpretation of Scripture 2. You may discuss theological differences, and beliefs 3. Any statements of pure heresy or blaspheme will be deleted. 4. Significant personal attacks will be deleted. *Significance of an attack will be determined by site owners, and moderators. Saying to a friend, whom you have had many conversations with in the forums, "You are nuts! lol :)" Is not cause to be deleted. Saying to anyone, "You are a jerk!" "You are stupid." "You're as dumb as a box of rocks." Are all examples of intollerable offenses. You are free to discuss almost anything as long as you do not blaspheme God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). Have fun! In Christ, -Matthew M. Gaiser

If we are free to discuss theological differences......doesn't that also give us the freedom to discuss many of the items you said we couldn't? such as the trinity (I.E. the physical/spiritual relationship between God, Jesus, and the Spirit) Or maybe the history and textual criticism of the scriptures?

I am not sure, but I do not see anything that I posted which would prohibit discussion of the Trinity. Also, I did say that you could feel free to discuss, "discuss interpretations of Scripture, and differences in versions of printed Bibles" Which would allow for any textual criticism of the Scriptures... I don't think that the items you asked about are off limits. Thanks, -Matt
