  • 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 are your thoughts on self defense , when evil is on the move

    I would rather be in a telephone booth with a hungry mountain lion then to be in a living room with most Christians. At least the mountain lion will have a little Mercy :)

    Grace... Gods ability to keep you faultless

    God is able to keep you... pure, holy, righteous, sanctified. Right in the middle of sin. Because Jesus paid the price... He became what we were on the cross so we can become what He is. The price He paid is so amazing, so great, so awesome all I can do is praise Him!!! Not some old dirt bag...

    Grace... Gods ability to keep you faultless

    Jude 24 24 Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight] — AMP

    Why so negative?

    Financial wealth, physical health and the other manifestations we see are only by-products of prosperity. One of the problems we have is ignorance of the Word which can cause anger, frustration and confusion. Then you have ignorance of a true relationship with the Father which causes an identity...

    A hireling is the thief here, this passage is not talking about the devil.

    comes to kill, steal, and destroy?

    What I said was true. You are either submitting to God or the devil. Directly or indirectly. Submitting to your flesh or this world system would be submitting to the devil. A person submitted is one yielded to another. Anytime you are not yielded to Gods way you are yielded to another. You don't...

    comes to kill, steal, and destroy?

    Paul was submitted. Grace is Gods divine power and ability working in me and through me to give me His power and ability to accomplish the things I cannot do in my own power and ability... So when God said My Grace is sufficient...He was saying, Paul, My divine power and ability working in you...

    comes to kill, steal, and destroy?

    I believe Paul was submitted. I believe the phrase exalted above measure has been misinterpreted by people as pride. It means because of the revelation that was given to him would cause him to be "exalted above measure" or "raised up, lifted up and thrown beyond the usual mark." That would mean...

    comes to kill, steal, and destroy?

    Not at all. You can resist the devil and be attacked. One has nothing to do with the other. When you are not resisting the devil, you are submitting to the devil. Therefore you would be resisting God. When you're submitted to God you are resisting the devil and when you are submitting to the...

    comes to kill, steal, and destroy?

    If you are submitting to God you are automatically resisting the devil. When you submit you are yielding yourself from your way of doing things and doing them Gods way. When you are yielded and doing it Gods way it is resisting the devil.

    JDS, What Does It Mean?

    Look, if you are taking offense it wasn't meant in that manor so it seems to me that we are at an impasse. So have fun, and I pray you have a very blessed day. :)

    JDS, What Does It Mean?

    Look man, if you want to reject what the bible says because you can't reason it out that's cool. Taking the literal translation says HE BECAME SIN. How? God put it on Him (it pleased Him to bruise Him). Do we understand it all? No one does. God said it and His thoughts and ways are more superior...
