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.
Imputed Righteousness. The True & The False.

The Lord "made all things for himself."
God's creation of Adam was "very good", and Adam was righteous until he committed the grievous sin of idolatry. He chose to please Eve instead of obey God.
God permits all people the freedom to accept him or reject him. They choose to either accept God or reject him through what they do. Titus 1:16
God does not force any person to become evil, but God will punish him for the evil he did.
Genesis 1:31
God saw all that he had made, and behold, it was very good. This was the evening and the morning of the sixth day.
1 Timothy 4:4
For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, provided that it is received with thanksgiving,
John 5:28-29
Do not be astonished at this; for the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 29 and will come out—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.

Revelation 3:1-4
“Write this to the angel of the church in Sardis:
These are the words of the one who holds God’s seven spirits and the seven stars: I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive, and you are in fact dead. 2 Wake up and strengthen whatever you have left, teetering on the brink of death, for I’ve found that your works are far from complete in the eyes of my God. 3 So remember what you received and heard. Hold on to it and change your hearts and lives. If you don’t wake up, I will come like a thief, and you won’t know what time I will come upon you. 4 But you do have a few people in Sardis who haven’t stained their clothing. They will walk with me clothed in white because they are worthy.
A few members in the church in Sardis have not yet stained their wedding garments. If they remain free of grievous sins until they die, they will join Jesus Christ at his wedding banquet in eternal life. These righteous people are on the narrow road to eternal life. Revelation 19:9
The other church members were on the wide road to hell. If these unrighteous people repent and change their hearts and lives before they die, they will be invited to the marriage banquet of the Lamb.
Matthew 22:10-14
hen those servants went to the roads and gathered everyone they found, both evil and good. The wedding party was full of guests. 11 Now when the king came in and saw the guests, he spotted a man who wasn’t wearing wedding clothes. 12 He said to him, ‘Friend, how did you get in here without wedding clothes?’ But he was speechless. 13 Then the king said to his servants, ‘Tie his hands and feet and throw him out into the farthest darkness. People there will be weeping and grinding their teeth.’
14 “Many people are invited, but few people are chosen.”
