  • 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.

can we sin in heaven?

The end times and these things are intresting but we should never focus 2 much on this and loose focus of the here and now.

In revelations God speaks of a 1000 years of peace in which he will reign on the earth, but then at the end there will be huge wars and judgement.

What is sin is maybe a better question to start with you..
Which can be answered in a few profound ways.. one would be: To be against God. The first sin (that of Satan) was Pride in his heart against God.

I guess since God will never overwrite our will (even when in heaven) we will still be able to "sin", and I guess since your in the presence of God with all his glory revealed justice would be very swift.
But I think God constructed this earth life in such away that those who make it to heaven will not bring this over themselves... I think.
This is simply my small opinion. I am aware that I understand very little of the end-times or heaven.

Once we are in heaven, can we still sin? I mean, satan was once an angel in heaven who sinned by having pride and he was sent to hell. so is it still possible to sin in heaven?
once we are in heaven(being it will be the time before heaven on earth) we will not be able to sin. We will not be there in the flesh as we will be there in our glorified bodies.why would God allow us to sin there, if He is getting ready to make a heaven on earth? We are the ones who will reign with Him for ETERNITY!!!

Humans cannot sin on our own. We must have temptation. There is no tempter in heaven.
