  • 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.

Does excess in negative/apophatic theology lead to false mysticism? It seems the Eastern Orthodox have rejected what we can know from revelation and accepted aspects of false religions like Hinduism in there place.

We are always in danger when we go astray from God's revelation in His Word. Whether they realize it or not, many sects have fallen into error by exploring this philosophy. Even Lloyd-Jones fell into it a bit with his exploration of "experiencing" the Holy Spirit.
