  • 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.

Maybe God knows the hearts, and who wants to hear from Him.

What makes you think there are no people who want to hear from god today? Just because the human population itself is larger that it was in the past means that there should be a decent number. Are you telling me you wouldn't want to hear from god? I sure would like to hear from god, if it exists.

For a God who is supposed to "love all his creation", he sure seems to cherry pick quite a bit.

I personally think a lot of people who "heard" god were schizophrenic, for those that were real people anyways.

I am sure many many do want to hear from God. However, they should realize that His word is a good as having Jesus chatting on their couch to them!

There are many today who feel that hearing from Him in many ways, including fairly directly is the modus operandi of God. The problem there is that any spirit can sneak in and offer some sort of sign or voice etc. It is nice to have a bureau of standards whereby we can check what was said to those folks....Scripture. Millions of believers feel God in the lives every day. They know He is there and has watched over them. Many feel His direction and leadings etc...or think they do. Again, it needs to check out.

Ga 1:8 -But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
