  • 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 is the point of life for people who die too young?

Young, innocent people die every day in the Middle East due to the war they're having there. Why were they born if God always knew those kids were going to die so young, and on top of that, most of them most likely only knew Islam?

They may go to heaven.

If you say they will go to heaven because they were too young, then isn't that unfair for those who have to prove themselves to go to heaven?

In this life, you prove yourself by believing Jesus has died for your sins. Is that hard?

Why do these people have it easier than all of us? Isn't that unfair?

Well, it may be unfair to you, but not to God. God's ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). His justice and mercy are not bound by human concepts of fairness or equality. If you think it is unfair to those kids, I suggest you do something about it.

What is the point of life for people who die too young?

Perhaps God wants people like you to do something about it. I don't know, but God knows. I rest assured of God's goodness and mercy. I have peace in this life.

I believe children who die before the age of accountability go to heaven.

Matthew 19:14
"Jesus said, “Leave the little children alone, and don’t try to keep them from coming to me, because the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”"
(Emphasis mine)
