Doesn’t it go from being a forum to just being a sounding board at that point?
JonC defines it more by what he is not, neither Calvinist nor Arminian, not in Original Sin, not into Pst, not into spiritual death, so hard to see if even into Fundamentalism still?
Are you saying that Sharperiron would not allow you to join? Did they let you know on what basis?
I tried to re-register numerous times with no response from them whatsoever aside from saying that my request was being reviewed. I had been on there previously but forgot my prior login credentials and so forth. It was, and still is a good site where you could have substantive discussion. Perhaps they were somewhat "snobby" and I likely chafed against that back in the day but nowadays, I could probably overlook such things.
Does anyone really check it? That happened to me on here. I always logged in using biometrics thumbprint on my iPhone. When my phone was reset (or maybe it was new), my password wasn’t saved, and I ran into the same issue with my email address. It ended up being a nightmare with a bunch of different websites, some of which were attached to my credit card like paying for road tolls.
I was once on the Puritan Board, as do hold to the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith, but got the boot as expressing to many times in their opinion belief in believers baptism and how Reformed Baptists are legit reformed, but guess no to themI tried to re-register numerous times with no response from them whatsoever aside from saying that my request was being reviewed.

I also tried joining the "Puritan Forums" but they are quite strict and selective regarding who they allow to join and participate! You actually have to subscribe to one of the historic confessions (Westminster, Belgic, London Baptist, New Hampshire, Etc.) and specifying any exceptions you may be taking. I told them I was "Calvinistic" but more of a "BFM 2000" kind of guy and they rejected me but at least they had the common courtesy of telling me so and why. Not really interested in being part of an "echo chamber" to be perfectly honest.
So, here am I. Back on the trusty old FFF, an older and (hopefully) wiser version of my former "Renegade" self!
Not gossip, just real life experiences and lettin g others know how far down that Bpard has now been driven
True, we should not be lying against someone, but think taht I am just giving what many of us have been experiencing while posting over on that Board
It’s not that serious bro.
He has stated to me that the wrath of God is a Pagan doctrine, that the saved sinner had no objective wrath that had to be accounted for, that we were not born spiritual dead sin, that Calvinism is man made fully, exalting humans over God for salvation, how can ANY of that be considered as sound Baptist theology and doctrines? And he always comes back with we worship authors, get theology from Reformed and Baptist authors and not from the bible at all, yet all of those he mislikes got their theology derived out from the scriptures themselves
Not a bit. I’ll give you a sentence starter: “Dr. Huk&Duk of the FFF doesn’t consistently attend church. He attended a secular university and he’s a known tobacco user.” OK, now have fun….
