  • 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.

Remember in Job how God and the Devil worked together to test Job?

John 13:26-27 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a morsel, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27. And after the morsel Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, What you do, do quickly.


How could satan enter into Judas after Christ dipped the bread into the wine and gave it to Judas when that was then a consecrated morsel? Unless Jesus let it happen? And had said the one to whom he gave that morsel would be his betrayer.

Do you agree with David Wilkerson's speculation?

The Truth About Judas - Betrayer of Christ by David Wilkerson June 15, 1992

Satan first wanted to make a statement to all the principalities and powers of darkness. I believe the devil planned to use Judas' fall to justify his own fall and the fall of those angels who joined in his rebellion!

Satan also wanted to make a statement to all the holy angels. He sought to throw darts of doubt into heaven itself to corrupt the unfallen, uncorrupted witnesses in glory.

Most of all, Satan's statement was meant for mankind - for you and me! The message he sent was meant primarily for God's people on earth. He wants to use it to destroy all faith!

1 Corinthians 2:7-8

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

Satan never would have had Jesus crucified if he had understood the hidden wisdom of God surrounding the cross. It is one of the many proofs of Satans failibility.
