• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • 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.

I have been getting into reformed theology recently. RC Sproul is probably one of my favorites. I tried to dive headfirst and read Calvin's the Institutes but that was to difficult for a younger guy like me, not accustomed to a lot of reading. But, I do have quite the collection of theology books that I do plan on having read someday.
If you get the opportunity, it would be worth your while to attend one of the Founders Conferences (Baptist, but that has nothing to do with their focus). When I go I always feel like, YES! James White is particularly good. You wouldn't be wasting time to watch his debates on YouTube, either.

Will do, thanks for the advice.
