  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    How does Calvinism work, exactly?

    Ok ... So, from those Bible verses and from what you've explained, it seems like the answer is pretty much, God chose to only save some because He can. So pretty much I would just say that since God is in charge of everything then He can pretty much do as He please because He's holy and good...

    How does Calvinism work, exactly?

    Ok ... This analogy here helps me understand Calvinism more. Thank you. But, I have a question. God still could of chosen to give everyone a heart of flesh if he wanted to, right? But, He just chose to only give it to certain people?
