  • 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.

    Predestination, and prayers for the (elect) dead

    I would think the prayer would be useless for the dead since scripture is explicit in its teaching that "it is appointed once unto man to die, then the judgment". I could be wrong on this one but who knows. I am like Ska, if I needed prayers after death, Christ death was useless, in vain, and...

    The Gospel according to John Piper

    Nothing, it is called diversion from the truth and further proof of scales and blindness that even the Pharisees had that they couldn't see God's glory before them. Pride, it destroyed Adam & caused the fall, and continues to this day to lead astray those who appear saved but in the end fade...

    The Gospel according to John Piper

    61 pages and you still don't get it, Janx. You don't get it because you're blind and refuse to the truth! Turn me in, I only have two days left here anyway. Stop trying to distort the truth and listen to it, it's there in 61 pages, but your agenda has been noted

    The Gospel according to any synergist, ever.

    True love is leaving the sinner where he wants to be, left to his sins which he dwells in happily, even knowing he will not have eternal life in heaven. The difference between Adam & Eve's will compared to ours is that they were created perfectly where as we are not. The freedom of the will we...

    The Gospel according to John Piper

    How could they have faith? They were in the womb, before either could do anything one was chosen for the promise and the other wasn't. In the womb they were chosen without any consent to their will. Did you have faith in the womb?

    The Gospel according to John Piper

    Better yet, sitting around searching for examples on the internet to try to bring down a system is rather sad in and of itself, no? Other than the forum, I have never searched the net looking to see how others deliver the gospel, that is a true sign of a haughty and proud spirit in order to say...

    The Gospel according to John Piper

    How did one exclude himself while in the womb when he could not yet make a choice? If one was chosen by God while in the womb without having a choice, then did not God "not" choose the other without considering his "will" as well? Be consistent brother!
