• 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.

  • 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.

When I tried to post my questions about reprobation, I got a message back saying "Server not found," so I tried to post them again. Now, apparently, it seems that they went through the first time! Anyway, so much for this post. I'm looking forward to reading anyone's thoughts on my other one though! :)

The very best explanation of all this that I've ever read is just as stated by Cygnus in AW Pink's The Sovereignty of God. He writes a whole chapter in explanation of this! He also states we are not to spend overmuch time dwelling on this but to leave it to God! I agree with the verse in Psalm 131:1 Neither do I concern myself with great matters, nor with things too profound for me.

When we trust God's sovereignty we have faith that all things are done well by Him and we dont have to understand every little detail! That is especially true in thinking on reprobation where our sense of 'fairness' and what is 'just' may be far different from God's.
God bless! Soli deo gloria!
