  • 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

The bible doesn't say much about heaven or hell, and what it does say is in metaphor.

What the bible is much more interested in is the here and now and in the final hope of resurrection into a world put to rights.

In a world put right, where we are put right in and for that world, are rules needed?

i read online that heaven is filled with rules, and from reading that i thought heaven is a happy place filled with rules and hell is a happy place filled without rules, i know this is not true, but what does the bible say about heaven and hell?

P.S. just a teen trying to learn

If you want to learn you need rules. A field of learning was once called a discipline. Discipline and rules are necessary for learning. If you object to rules you will never learn anything.
