  • 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 urge you to listen to my pastor's reply to the informational mailouts to all pastors in the Southern Baptist of Texas, including two CDs. These he explains in this sermon and refutes their claims agaist the doctrines of grace and verifies our beliefs so beautifully! It is a sad day when your denomination attacks the solid biblical beliefs you so want to uphold! We are a reformed congregation in the Soutnern Baptist of Texas Convention, the conservative branch, not affiliated with the Baptist General Convention, moderate branch. Sermon "The Only Way to Come to Jesus", Sunday PM, April 30, 2006

http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SermonID=43006211618

Also please be in prayer for all who would uphold the truth of scripture without compromise and that those who do not would search the scripture and pray for understanding, that their blindness, deafness and hard hearts would be touched by our Lord!

I listened to it today going to and from work. Very good message - I particularly liked the simplicity of it. As much as some of us want to make it so - Calvinism just simply is not rocket science - and the way Pastor Caldwell presents it in this message, any 10 year old could fully grasp it.

Thanks for sharing -

As to the CDs that went out - I go to a SB church in Texas and my pastor (who is reformed to the core) hadn't gotten them.
