  • 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.

Luke 4

The Temptation of Jesus

1(A)Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, (B)returned from the Jordan and was led around by the Spirit in the wilderness
2for (C)forty days, being tempted by the devil. And He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He became hungry.
3And the devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread."
4And Jesus answered him, "It is written, '(D)MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE.'"
5(E)And he led Him up and showed Him all the kingdoms of (F)the world in a moment of time.
6And the devil said to Him, "I will give You all this domain and its glory; (G)for it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.
7"Therefore if You worship before me, it shall all be Yours."
8Jesus answered him, "It is written, '(H)YOU SHALL WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD AND SERVE HIM ONLY.'"
9(I)And he led Him to Jerusalem and had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down from here;
10for it is written,
'(J)HE WILL COMMAND HIS ANGELS CONCERNING YOU TO GUARD YOU,'
11and,
'(K)ON their HANDS THEY WILL BEAR YOU UP,
SO THAT YOU WILL NOT STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE.'"
12And Jesus answered and said to him, "It is said, '(L)YOU SHALL NOT PUT THE LORD YOUR GOD TO THE TEST.'"
13When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.
