  • 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.

And a fog lifted from their minds, for it was not their desire to commiserate into oblivion

Yes!

Jesus finally found a way for the fog of misinterpretation of the beginning to be mitigated.

Principle has begun to reign in our hearts, for all that God has Created.

We are above even pity, for our Lord cherishes us - that the Word that He put in our hearts may be for Him and us alone.

This is the way: walk ye in it!

When you have the Holy Spirit to guide you as well as you have faith in what you read in His Word, you believe in it and apply it into your life, you will be given understanding by Him too.

Before you have the Holy Spirit in you, there is put a veil over you so that you will not understand properly His Word. Many might learn and study God's Word letter by letter, as well as historically put, but they will not have the ability of letting it become alive within them, nor gaining the right understanding of it as God gives through the Holy Spirit.

The closer we get to God, and the more we grow in our relationship with His Son Jesus Christ, the more we will also delight in reading in as well as studying in His Word. And it will get more rooted within us, as well as we will be living more in it.
