  • 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.

Was not Torah the laws of the Sinai covenant?

same question - x200 gets same answer x200 -- but I enjoy the ride as do we all.

"Do not take God's name in vain" is certainly stated at Sinai - Ex 20.

And so it is included in the "LAW of God written on the heart" under the New Covenant of Jer 31:31-34..
where "the first commandment with a promise" is the 5th commandment in that still-valid unit of TEN - Eph 6:1-2

And of course - it is that New Covenant - unchanged to this very day that is the Gospel.

How did they blaspheme God before the nations? By not keeping the torah of faith.

Sooo many ways to do it - the point is that having it at Sinai did not make it "ok to break that command" under the New Covenant.
