  • 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.

What kind of music is ok for Christians to listen to? I have got many opinions from other Christians about this. Some say to only listen to worship music and others say to listen to whatever you want just as long as it isn't worldly.

I like to listen to classical harp music. It is so peaceful and heart warming. There is no real worldliness to it, in my opinion. I don't know if the composers and musicians are Christians or not, but I am guessing that some are!

Whatsoever your personal relationship with Christ says is ok.

Much love in Christ, Not me

The style of music is not so much of a deal as the spirit of the composer and performer(s). And your own reaction to it.

I love a lot of classical music but will not listen to anything by Wagner since he was a flaming antiSemite who tried to destroy every last copy of all of the works of Mendelssohn. He was also a favorite of Hitler.

I love good rock, blues, jazz and a host of other styles, but if something is blatantly devilish or promoting illicit sex, forget it.

Any music that doesn't tempt us to sin is fine. The Lord wants us to be happy.
