  • 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.

:) God is doing something wonderful in the USA. And we need to remember there are generals and others that give him advice. There are many in Washington would LOVE to have a war.

Safer? This is where I would say Good Jesus.. praise GOD no. I fear which is not of God that Russia and China might could chime in no? Were not they all just doing some war games?

Side note: Hammster. If it helps :) my dad when he was young really thought little chicks could swim. He was very young and... you don't want to know how many it took before he found out the truth lol. About your "turkeys could fly".

As long as the largest export of America is the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and it is, all the hell Satan can muster can not bring us down.

We are a chosen vessel by God to deliver that message until the fulfillment of the church comes, or we drop the ball and are replaced as Great Britain was.

What happens to us then, I don't know.

The world is unsafe irrespective of the attack.

Not having any right to say that I am any sort of expert, whatever God chooses is his right. Just years ago, can't remember who, said that satan is chained up down there somewhere. I can't follow all that. I just love God with my whole heart and do my best to be faithful to his will.

Is the world less safe after Trump attacked Iran?
I have to consider the violence that Iran has been exporting for years when I answer this. For that reason, I have to say no. All this is going to change is how much of the violence will be aimed at the US.

Then you are exactly where you should be - in the center of God's will - no better place to be no matter what happens in this world.

I think this will make this a more violent world. Perhaps that is as it should be?

Perhaps but we should all expect tribulation in this world. What always strikes me as amazing is when I read Hebrews 11:
35Women received back their dead by resurrection; and others were tortured, not having accepted release, so that they might obtain a better resurrection. 36And others received the trial of mockings and of scourgings, and in addition, of chains and imprisonment. 37They were stoned, they were sawed in two,c they were killed by slaughter of the sword; they wandered in sheepskins, in goatskins, being destitute, being oppressed, being mistreated; 38of whom the world was not worthy; wandering in deserts, and mountains, and caves, and holes of the earth.

These believers refused to be released and instead chose to suffer in order to obtain a better resurrection. That is not the typical mindset of the Western believer today.

If there's anything Trump should be impeached for it's this. And Obama should have been impeached for his assassination of a sixteen year old US citizen.

But alas, we're a nation of merciless fools and so we'll impeach our Presidents for sexual peccadillo and phone calls. Outright murder with out any due process? Totally good with that. We're 'Merka.

If you believe some of the Christians who post here, grace is what gives us the ability to sin like crazy and party like it's 1999.

Eliminating one of the most powerful, well known terrorist in the world; one who was designated a terrorist by multiple countries and the UN - one who orchestrated numerous attacks on his own countrymen and foreign nations - one who was in another nation to coordinated terrorist attacks - how does removing him make anywhere less safe?
