  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

You know in Matthew 4:6-7 (the temptation in the desert) Satan and Christ duke it out with scripture.

Psalm 91:12 V.S. Deuteronomy 6:16

Well after reading the the Bible I came across conflicting scripture.

James 5:13/Ecclesiastes 3:12 V.S. Luke 6:25/Ecclesiastes 7:4
(Joy V.S. Sadness)

What is better a smile? Or sorrow?

&

A rumble of scripture...

2 Peter 3:11 (live godly) V.S. Ephesians 4:29 (talk good) V.S. Lamentations 3:38 (G_d is good and evil[?])

Or Romans 12:14 V.S. Mark 11:21.

Should we not curse?

Grace be to you.

Hasn't anyone ever told you have to read the Bible verses in context? Reading the surrounding verses would help you a lot. Did you do that before you posted?

Who was the person talking to? Compare Solomon's personal thoughts to Jesus' rebuke of Pharisees.
What was the subject? Compare philosophy, Jesus' message, church advice
When was it written? Compare Old Testament, Gospel/early church time period
Where was it written? Compare Solomon's circumstances to Lamentations' circumstances
Why was it written? Compare philosophy, Jesus' message to Pharisees, church advice

My questions are simple.

Before anybody could answer the Spirit showed me 2 Corinthians 6:10.

Both, and yes.

Peace and grace be to all of you.
