THE BOOK OF LAW

(Revised 1-08-2008) Here at the Final Call, we want to be part of a group where not only you have liberty, but a controlled safe environment where you can post feeling comfortable without the feeling of getting flamed or criticised for comments. As such, the following standards for our site applies to both the conversational post and membership of the site. Thus, everyone is encouraged to examine yourself and remember the following rules:

PRIOR TO THE MAIN RULES, YOU MUST BE A BORN-AGAIN CHRISTIAN AS A PREDOMINATE PREREQUISITE TO BE PART OF THIS BODY OF CHRIST (THIS IS THE ONLY REQUIREMENT AS FAR AS JOINING THE SITE); as a member please maintain and keep the following rules below; No non-Christians are allowed to join, but are most welcome to browse the site as much as you would like. If you have a question about something (non-member Christians or non-Christians) please contact the site manager for information.

1. No post may contain profanity and the use of "Hell" and "God" will be used according to their original meanings in scripture. That is to say, unless you use them correctly then it's consider inappropriate and not allowed.

2. While we are a site that expresses opinions as well as truths of scripture, we asked that everyone respect the views of the members of the site and to not attack them personally. Safe debating is fine, as long as one can remain brothers/sisters in Christ afterwards and be like friends. If not, then don't take it any further. Be courteous, respectful, and understanding, but do it all in love.

3. While saying what you want in love is good, one must also be careful how you "tone" your post. That is, if a post is considered childish towards another member and it causes one or more people to leave the site because of "childish" or "nontruthful, offensive" statement, then that member will be reminded to delete the post or else membership will be immediately cancelled. So please, watch how you word your post as well as the tone in which you present them. Prespective is everything so please be clear on your post and be very careful to not take your anger, frustration, etc., on other members or in your post. Thanks for understanding.

4. Everyone is to set their message settings to "ON THE WEB". Failure to do so will result in immediate removal without warning. By checking the membership settings, I will be able to know if you have your settings set to "Inbox", so please change them accordingly to the mandatory rule.

5. AFTER JOINING THIS GROUP, you must find time to be active in posting in some compacity on the sight. If you remain inactive for one month, without notification, your membership will be terminated without notice. So, please post as soon as often as you can. And yes, replies to message will also serve or count as post, so replying is good to. Thanks for understanding.

6. Finally, this is a site that worships and glorifies God. Any type of glory or focus given to anyone other than God (The Father, Son, Holy Spirit) is strictly prohibited as well as denying or promoting a doctrine contrary to the Holy Scriptures as prescribed on "Our Canon of Faith" (doctrinal statement). No false teachings allowed (unless presenting in a lesson about something or talking about in a discussion).

God bless those who read, understand, and abide in these rules in order that we may fellowship in love and harmony and peace.
