  • 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.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Is belief not a work? Can satan believe? If so, is belief still sufficient? It seems that there is more to a relationship with Jesus than just believing. The acts and submission that should follow, I would think, are more indicative of the relationship and salvation than belief.

    What am I doing wrong?

    You are correct in your assumption, and yes, I guess I am in a somewhat similar conundrum - just never "got it". The meaning of the four statements above either were lost in the original Latin or bounce the ball from one spectrum to the next. So by believer, do we mean devil (who...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Right. I am fairly certain this never happened to me. I am no different now then when I was 17 and arrogant. I am just a lot more laid back as I get older. Not trying to down play this, but this is something non-believers do as well. Everyone I have ever known struggles to subdue anger -...

    What am I doing wrong?

    I contemplate and read replies as they come. You don't have to log in, in order to do so. I didn't think anyone wanted a response. So do we sit around and wait for an apple to fall on our head while we contemplate/meditate/pontificate? I realize what the scriptures say. I also know what my...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi all. I've prayed for salvation, "accepted" Jesus as my savior in my head, asked to be changed, asked to be saved from sin, etc, almost each day for the past 21 years. Not much has changed over 21 years. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

    From Beginning To End - Salvation

    I can say I want to believe in Jesus all I want.... but John 3:4-8 makes no sense to me at all.

    How to prepare yourself for hell.

    I wouldn't wish Hell on my worst enemy, not even Hitler.... If someone tied me, burned me alive, or trapped a rat on my stomach until it ate through my insides (you get the point)... I still would not choose to send that person to hell. I would sooner be cooked in an oven 1000 times over then...

    From Beginning To End - Salvation

    Can someone guide me through finding God, believing in Jesus, and becoming a born again Christian? I need help. Trying to start over.

    How to prepare yourself for hell.

    This does not work. Speaking words do not work. Otherwise everyone on earth would be saved... even the devil.
