  • 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.

Is it just me or do some of you get the feeling that in todays time we are playing patty cake church? I mean it seems to be so easy to use the blood of Jesus as a tool to do evil even without knowing we are doing that.

Do you ever think that maybe you would think twice about something if you didn't know the blood of Jesus was there for you? We seem to be at a place where sin isn't as frightning as it should be to us. Even the little things we do should be reconsidered.

I think to myself...if I didn't know the blood of Jesus was going to cover me would I have done that? I think sometimes it is easy to play with sin because we forget the price was paid. And lest we forget, God will not hold us blameless who use the blood of Jesus as an opertunity for sin.

Maybe there should be more teaching about rewards :idea: This life is very fleeting but eternity is forever. Store up your treasures in heaven. The interest is greater there than the interest here!!!!!

I think there is quite a bit about rewards these days. Everyone wants something that is going to feel good. Personaly I think we got confused. I think we may have forgoten that God is still the same God today that He was yesterday and He hates sin.

Honestly...why do you think it isn't such a big deal anymore about our sins? I think it may be because we think since we are covered then we are home free so we can sin and it be ok. God warned us about this.
