  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

always remember that Obelisk thing, its definitely more pagan than any tree could be, yet it is on EGWs grave yard and part of many SDA churches... and it will be, and there shall be more of the same... why bother fussing about a tree when something more sinister is all around and nobody cares to correct it...

JohnMarsten:

Are you referring to the cross because I do not celebrate it either it is pagan?
The cross also go back to Nimrod and it is on our graves, churches, robes and more. I do not give homage to any obelisk or relic of anykind.

Blessing,
stinsonmarri

Is the practice of Ingathering commanded in the Bible, or has it been added? Are Campmeetings in the Bible? Is the Pathfinder program in the Bible? Is the practice of observing the Lord's Supper quarterly Biblical? Does the idea of having a General Conference with a president and subordinate conferences come from the Bible? Does the practice of sending tithe money to the GC come from the Bible? Is ceremony of the dedication of infants commanded in Scripture?

Do you get my point?

Apparently my point has not been made. Just because a celebration commemorating our saviours birth is not commanded in the Bible does not make it a bad thing.
