• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

How do you deal with being hated for your doctrine?

i don't think they hate me, per say, but the main message of the Bible: it's too scary, to admit that, yeah, God is THAT sovereign. & it's really hard to go against the massively popular theology of Armnianism, which was just a heresy a hundred fifty years ago.

the ones that 'hate me', i dunno. By God's grace i just don't care about that kinda thing. (really that's GOTTA be by God's grace, cuz i'm such a chick that if someone doesn't immed respond to an email, f'rinstance, i automatically assume they must hate me ;))
