  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Conscience is not a thermostat

Conscience is not a thermostat of personal moral preference, but a receiver that finds its true signal in the power and Word of God. As we draw closer to Him, our conscience is guided by the Holy Spirit's quiet voice, helping us tune out the static of self and the world so that we may more clearly and accurately hear His truth revealed in Scripture.

Just the other day on here a user thinks it is right to cast judgment upon me just because I have a thought to share. I would like to encourage all users that we are here for respectful exchange and not name-calling or theological branding. Peace and love is our motto - they will know us by our love.

Yes, I understand that it is impossible to screen everyone's comments; yet, I ask that the conscience of all be finely tuned to receive the signal from the One we are to honor and praise, for that fine-tuning helps us love one another as we ought. God bless and He does for sure.
