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.

And now we begin the New Testament.
Note: It is worthy of a study to understand how the Old Testament is an un-folding to the New Testament, and that the ENTIRE BIBLE is like a huge and brilliantly hued, beautiful tapestry, NOT separated, but woven together, from beginning to end.
ALL of it exquisitely inter-connected from one part of it to another.
How glorious is THAT??!!
It's cause for celebration and rejoicing, is it not?

Matthew 9:
There they are, throngs of jostling chaotic and possibly unpleasantly tired and cranky crowds.
And what is Jesus' thoughts and response?
He had COMPASSION on them.
How PRECIOUS is THAT??!!
(Can you imagine being there to see it?)

Matthew 17:
This sounds like a "Child-like" kind of faith, doesn't it? Reminds me of the faith akin to Corrie Ten Boom's.
She was in line at the concentration camp and the soldiers were searching everyone. And if anyone had any Bibles, of all things, they would be confiscated and the one carrying the Bible would suffer dire consequences. So she asked God to hide it. And not only did He hide the Bible, He hid Corrie too!
The soldiers just passed on by her as if she wasn't there.
Precious God, is He not?

Matthew 18:
"For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray." ~Matthew 18:11-13
He is a GOOD Shepherd, is He not?
Precious.
