  • 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

Depending on your interpretation ethic.

If we assume Paul is saved, ("I too have the Holy Spirit") then this modifies how the balance of scripture paints the picture. The passages in James about judging with mercy come to mind, they seem to apply a lot when reading the bible, since reading the bible results in making one judgment or another nowadays.
That was a tongue in cheek comment to what you posted. Obviously Paul was saved, and bound for eternal life, despite being a murderer.
