Green Beret,

Why should they have to explain anything to us stupid IFBs?  This poster has obviously met all of us and knows we are too stupid to know that we are stupid. It would therefore be stupid to advise us of how stupid we are since we are too stupid to understand.  See the logic?  Oh wait, you can't,  since you are too stupid to see it. How stupid of me.

Ahhhhh, yes. Thanks for explaining that to me. Now it's perfectly clear. How stupid of me as well.
 
Wow I didn't know I was stupid ..........I know I'm not stupid for choosing to be IFB . This is a way of life for me. I would never call someone else stupid even if I was thinking it.......I'm sorry you think we are stupid but you may have put some nuts in the same bowl but we are not stupid.

First, lets define a few terms.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/idiot

"Informal. an utterly foolish or senseless person: "

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/stupid?s=ts

lacking ordinary quickness and keenness of mind; dull.

Now the evidence.

1. IFBs take pride in living a  "separated" life. When in fact, they really don't. I have never and I mean never..... meet one IFB that lived the separated life they demand of anyone else. Not one.

For your biblical reference. Please read Romans 2:23

Rom 2:23  Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?
Rom 2:24  For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
Rom 2:25  For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

Sorry poor little IFBs.... You know you don't live the lives you demand of others. You don't. Its stupid and idiotic to pretend that you do.

2.  When someone messes up.... its not because of the IFB system of beliefs.....its just a very small exception and its ALL that individual's fault.

It really amazes how the typical IFB ignores they are the one's that have raised this generation that's rebelling right in front of them. I mean.... REALLY? On one hand you claim victory is to be had and in realit.....your world is falling ALL AROUND YOU. You're child could careless about anything you say because they KNOW YOU. They know the people that live behind those good little IFB masks. They've seen you for years snarl and ridicule others and then you do the exact same things. Oh... buts its not our Pharisee system we've established... No. Not at ALL... We're just sinners saved by grace doing the best we can....

For your Biblical reference....

Mat 23:28  Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
Mat 23:29  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
Mat 23:30  And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
Mat 23:31  Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.

3. They've taken the "name" of a slave.

Do you realize just how silly it is to call yourself "Independant Fundamental Baptist"? Do you?

Did you know that Peter said

1Pe 4:16  Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

Did you read that? Did you? I know you IFBs think "Christian" isn't good enough of a name to be called after.... that It just doesn't really set enough of distinction...... It really is comical. I would laugh but its too sad to laugh at. 

YOU HAVE REPLACED THE NAME OF YOUR MASTER..... with one of his servants. A SLAVE. If that isn't "stupid".... tell me what is?

For your biblical reference....

1Co 3:4  For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
1Co 3:5  Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
1Co 3:6  I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
1Co 3:7  So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

...............................

Now a "keen" mind would have to admit these issues. The fact is......IFBs willingly ignore this.....Well... refer back to the definition.  :o

I have many more reasons, but I'll just leave it at that for now. Deal with it. Tell me just how smart you really are.

I think there is merit to the three arguments posted. The battles would occur between the X'ers and the non-X'ers in the IFB world over the extent of isolation/separation. But the folks that would argue these levels would own cars and homes just like the world, have all the modern conveniences just like the world, would love sports just like the world. Well you understand.

If you don't think #3 has merit all you have to do is look at all the IFB fractions. I am of Hyles, I am of Robertson, I am of Sexton, I am of Gray etc...

Now could it have been worded in a better way, sure. But the toxicity of the post does not diminish the merit of the argument just how well it is received.

I think people who are  overly obsessed with Independent Fundamental Baptists are stupid!

It is a good thing that IFB's have never broad brushed non-IFB's, like the SBC.  ;)
 
Lots of pent up anger in the OP, which is sin, which makes the OP a hypocrite, which, by the OP's definition, makes CU an IFB!

Glad to have you back as one of us, CU!

I'm not, nor have I ever been, IFB, so I really don't have a dog in this fight. So of course, having said that....

IMHO, the validity of his argument went out the window the second he called IFBs stupid. No matter how many verses he could quote, I would read his post through the lens of him insulting others who just happen to not agree with him and I just wouldn't be able to take him as seriously as I'm sure he'd want to be.

That is assuming he wanted to be taken seriously as opposed to just using the forum as a place to rant or vent.

Don't call IFBs stupid.  They might really be stupid, and then you'll hurt their feelings.

If Christ can't change you..... then why would you think I was trying to change any of you? I gave up trying to change any of you a long time ago. I'm just warning others. Just pointing how how anyone should stay away all of you. You have nothing worth having. NOTHING.

You're talking foolish, absolutely postitively foolish.  I suspect it is just your way of drawing attention, stirring the pot, or lashing out at those who hurt you in the past.  To say that IFBs have nothing worth having is saying that Christ isn't worth having, and that is near blasphemy.
