  • 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.

    When did the church start?

    I think it is so moving to consider that Jesus (although being the Chief Cornerstone) never founded "a religious institution". (I am speaking as a man) He is the founder of the faith and Christ IS the Way, the Truth, and the Light. But his historical account is "air-tight" as I heard Chip Ingram...

    When did the church start?

    That is safe tradition. The Revelations account of the church sounds accurate too.

    Is there biblical evidence of that?
