• 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.

<SPAN class=ip-normal-font>just thought this was lush. .
basically pascal said that we have to make a descision wether there is or isnt a God because if we say we dont know we end up living as if there isnt a God.

He also said that we should live as if there is a god becuase if there isnt we lose nothing but if we act as though there isnt we stand to lose a great deal. . <IMG height=15 alt=eek src="http://christianteenchat.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif" width=15>

We can make no decision but for evil. (Rom 3). Even paschal's theory relies on God making Himself evident and giving us the faith to state the Truth, or on acting like we believe in God just because its what's best for us in the long run.&nbsp; But that, by his own theories logic, is not really believing, but middle&nbsp;ground, and so will wind up being unbelief anyway.&nbsp; Faith is NOT logical.

&nbsp;Biblically speaking, no one can choose to believe in God. God makes us believe. We then can choose to not believe (and many do), but it is never us who have chosen Him. As Christ said, "I have chosen you."

Peace
