  • 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.

    A couple questions for folks who take Ezekiel's Temple literally

    Ezekiel's Temple has been perplexing to me as of late. I know not all people take it literally, but for this who do... I know the animal sacrifices will be done by Christian Jews in the future, and they will just be for ritual cleansing (as discussed in Hebrews 9-10, and the works of Richard...

    Theistic Evolution

    Agreed! :) May Christ's glory be found in a turning to Him that this generation so greatly needs!

    Theistic Evolution

    That's how I feel about it too. Even if a person holds to the view that animals were vegetarians before the fall of Adam, to be so dogmatic about it like some people are, as I mentioned, is very dividing to the church. Let me just finish with saying that CHRIST should be where our minds and...

    Theistic Evolution

    Good point, I forgot about that verse. Nevertheless, couldn't animals have still eaten other animals before that?

    Theistic Evolution

    But does Scripture say anywhere where God specifically tells Adam and Eve it's a sin to eat animals? Also, He gives them dominion over animals; wouldn't that also include being able to eat them, if they chose to do so? Also consider he gives them dominion over fish (and other animals) that...

    Theistic Evolution

    I completely agree, man. That's what kind of agitates me about Kent Hovind and those types (Hovind is currently serving several years in jail for tax evasion) - they are dogmatic about stuff that Scripture does not command us to be dogmatic about. I know that Hovind was once in a debate and he...

    Theistic Evolution

    I agree about how life is made meaningless if you believe in naturalistic evolution. I am completely on the same page as you there. It hits close to home actually, because I am an ethnically Jewish, believer in Christ. I had relatives who survived the Holocaust, and I realize the danger that...

    Theistic Evolution

    That's basically my feeling on the situation as well. But, if you can be saved and believe in it, why such the big fight about it?

    Theistic Evolution

    So stormdancer, just straight forward, yes or no - can a Theistic Evolutionist who believes Christ is the only way to Heaven still have salvation?

    Theistic Evolution

    I did not know where to post this, so if it's in the wrong place, please move it. Sorry for any problems. To non-evolutionist Christians, do you think that Theistic Evolutionists, who fit the Big Bang and Evolution into Scripture, still have salvation, as long as their theology is accurate? I...
