• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

u r fast!!! But i guess something could escape from a radiation too...maybe a great volcanic eruption??? BOOM!!!
God uses nature and his creation as symbols, so people will better understand who he is. God uses water many times in the Bible to cleanse people from sin. He destroyed the world with water in the flood, to purge the world of the sin they had committed when they turned away from Him. Only Noah and his family obeyed God. He also saved Moses and the Isrealites from the Egyptian Army when he drowned them in the Red Sea. Also Baptism uses water to cleanse us from our sin. God uses symbols that we understand.

Better technology?! You have to pulling my leg. :rolleyes: Why would God lower Himself to man's dirty methods of destruction. Can men make it rain forty days and nights?
