  • 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.

TRAIN A CHILD

Pr 22:6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.

Eph 6:4 Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.

Gen 18:19 I have chosen Abraham, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, so that the LORD will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.

Deut 4:9 Be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.

A significant part of parenting involves training your children. If you have children, don't simply view it as other people's responsibility to train them. God holds you responsible to train them. When you become a parent, you take on the role of a teacher. So learn to teach well. And neither be too harsh and demanding, else they become discouraged, nor too lenient, else they become too lazy. Teaching involves not only transferring information. It also involves motivating your students. And it involves applying the information.
