  • 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 was Jesus without sin?

Being tempted to do something is not a sin. But yes giving in to the temptation is the sin. Not wanting to do something is not a sin, refusing to do it is the sin. God never said we had to want or like everything He commands, He just wants us to do it. It's not a sin or weakness to not want to suffer and die a torturous death. No one wants that. It goes against our natural instinct for survival.

Makes sense otherwise Jesus would have sinned when he was tempted by Satan.
