• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

OT history - killing everything that breathes?

In my example the person isn't wanting to please God - they just get pleasure in killing things. (as opposed to feeling shocked about it)
Like most people on earth, thus they perish without Christ and without hope.

Maybe from her point of view. But prostitution was still a clear violation of God's law - not just the edict of hypocritical men. What spared her was her faith - exactly what spares all of us sinners when grace meets us in the Person Of Jesus Christ. Dime to a dollar, though, that she didn't continue on in that sin from that point on or as His Spirit delivered her.

If we were to remove all sinners from Jesus' lineage - the Word would never have become flesh and dwelt amongst us and save us, eh?
She was still deemed worthy. On another note, trafficking is forced sexual conformity in order to save ones life and their children.
Let us reason.
