  • 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.

Hazael was a Syrian courtier, anointed by Elijah as king over Syria. Hazael murdered his master and usurped the throne

Brinny,

Yes Jezebel was an evil worshiper of Baal.
Jezebel was thrown out a window and her body was eaten by dogs.

was reading Hebrews and this verse sorta' caught my attention:

"By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God." ~Hebrews 11:5

This reminds me of what happened to Elijah. God took/translated Enoch because he pleased God, and that is why God took him. It appears that it would also apply to Elijah. Enoch didn't die. Neither did Elijah.
