  • 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.

    Truth? On what basis? His own reasoning? Certainly not truth based in scripture.

    Saving people

    Once again, my sharing the gospel (good news) with someone will not keep them from Hell. Repentance and faith are necessary components of salvation, neither of which I can do for a person. However, He has chosen to use believers to spread that good news, and that is truly humbling. Could He...

    Saving people

    Well, there are only two destinations...Heaven or Hell. But, once again, I cannot change anyone's destination. All of us deserve God's wrath (Hell), but on some, God has mercy... What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means! For he says to Moses, “I will have...

    Saving people

    Please re-read my previous post....I cannot prevent God from doing His will. I share the Gospel with people because I understand it is God's power for salvation... For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and...

    I cannot prevent God from doing His will.... At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and praised and honored him who lives forever, for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom endures...

    I think you are misunderstanding the God of the Bible. Love is not His only attribute. He is also a God of wrath...and He has other attributes as well. What do you mean by "whos(e) actions must be prevented"?

    I'm not real clear on the question. Can you rephrase?

    The Argument From Design

    Were you there at the beginning so that you can show us this process? I think you need to examine your assumptions.

    Have a question

    Remember ...it has never been about physical Israel... But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. Neither are they all children because they are Abraham’s descendants. On the contrary, your offspring will be traced through Isaac...

    Have a question

    Well, Christianity itself is a worldview...the worldview of those who follow Christ. I think you can more easily look at the purpose(s) of Jesus as He is the one who actually accomplished what was set before Him. A couple verses come to mind... She will give birth to a son, and you are to...

    Have a question

    The author to the Hebrews answers both questions rather nicely: And just as it is appointed for people to die once—and after this, judgment— so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to...

    The Argument From Design

    Though I don't use this argument, I'll throw out a response to get the ball rolling. :) Sure...Though He didn't make it simple, I suppose that He could have. I will not presume to answer the why question. For as heaven is higher than earth, so My ways are higher than your ways, and My...

    My theory on the origin of Christianity

    How do you, in a worldview without revelation from God, account for logic?
