  • 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.

Talk is cheap, until we realize that we reap, accordingly.

But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
<-----> Matthew 12:36+37

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. <-----> Proverbs 18:21

Those who say we ought not fear God, have yet to fathom His Holy Fire.

Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
For our God is a consuming fire.
<-----> Hebrews 12:28+29

For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God. <-----> Deuteronomy 4:24

For the proverbial apple to fall far from the proverbial tree, a mighty wind must blow.

And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
<-----> Acts 2:1+2

It's not over until the Alleluia Chorus sings.

And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honor, and power, unto the Lord our God:
For true and righteous are his judgments: for he has judged the great harlot, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and has avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
<-----> Revelation 19:1+2

True religion is comely, being without hypocrisy and full of good fruit.

But false religion lacks essential godly beauty, and is therefore compelled to resort to deception, coercion, carnal enticements, and worldly intimidations.

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. <-----> James 1:27

I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none does return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah. <-----> Jeremiah 23:14
