Before you post, please observe some basic etiquette before posting.

Before I go any further, I ask you to read the Statement of Faith here:

http://www.fundamentalpreaching.com/stat...t-540.html

If you find yourself not completely agreeing with it, then we humbly ask that you do not post. We do not ask this in a hateful manner, we are simply desiring god-honouring discussions between like-minded brethren.

With that said, please read the following carefully:

1 ) Honor the Lord with your posts. Don't post anything that does not edify in a Godly manner. If it does not honor or glorify God, go post somewhere else. Make sure you read the statement of belief on this site, if you do not agree with it and you continue to post in a contrary manner, then you will be banned.

2 ) When posting IN ALL CAPS IT LOOKS AS IF YOU ARE YELLING AT SOMEONE, so please make sure of your posting in caps before doing so.

3 ) When you post in italicized lettering, you place focus on a point in those specific letters it usually means you are stressing a point. Be careful when using this also, as depending on who you are directing it towards, it can become very personal

4 ) When you post in boldface, you are pointing out something important in your statement.

5 ) Please avoid the overuse of different colors, not only is it annoying, it can take away from the topic at hand

6 ) Please watch your criticism of other believers and personal attacks. Please adhere to biblical guidance when criticizing. We all know what the process is before separating from them.

7 ) Please use common sense and courtesy. We are all here for a common purpose, to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ, edify one another, fellowship together, warn the unruly and apostate, then separate if need be and not " answer a fool according to his folly".

8 ) Please do not post jokes and other similar things. If you must post a joke, please do so privately or on another site.

9 ) Please do not post articles or other peoples works, period. Paste only a link to that work in your posts. If people want to post other works or references, they will click on the link. Not only does it keep the continuity of the thread, it keeps the load off of the database. It also reduces the likelihood of any chance of copyright infringement.

10 ) Read all Stickys and Announcements at the tops of the page before you post in each category, they are of importance and can probably help you from making a mistake.

11 ) Keep topics where they belong, make sure you post according to what the forum name relates.

12 ) Make sure that you have a good anti-virus application on your computer. The reason is, it will detect any website that may have malware on it incase you post a link to that website. That being said, make sure that any link you post does not direct you to a website that contains malware or spyware.

13 ) Enjoy yourself.

As issues arise, this announcement may be updated to compensate.

Thank you and God Bless,

Jim
