  • 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.

People are born with a sinful nature. Why does God still judge us?

God does not condemn us for our sinful nature, John 3:

18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
On the contrary, because I have a sinful nature, there is all the more reason to humble myself and depend on God's salvation.

What makes you think those reborn of God's seed still have anything from the old vessel ?
It is written..." Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2 Cor 5:17)

The only way it makes any sense for God to condemn someone is if he or she has free will and uses his or her free will to decide to reject Christ and refuse to repent of his or her sins. It certainly makes no sense to condemn someone for not believing in Christ if he or she is not even capable of doing so.
