  • 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 blood is not the covenant and the covenant is not the blood. Ratified, but not enacted.

In Christ,

Oh, very good observation, and how would you say the Covenant is to be enacted?
In the same sense as the Mosaic. It was ratified on the mountain, but enacted only when Moses descended and received the people's agreement (Ex. 24:3, 7). Likewise, though the new covenant was ratified by the shed blood, it will be enacted only by Christ's return "for salvation without reference to sin" (Heb. 8: 8-13; 9:28).

In Christ,
Tracey
