  • 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.

Will the Messianic congregation make a comeback in these last days?

The title to this article read, "Powerful GOP Congressman calls on Jerry Falwell Jr to resign over “appalling” & “ongoing” scandals." Which are issues in this the Laodicean church age.

My gosh if John Calvin would have beheld Jerry Falwell Jr it would have been yet another burnt (along with Michael Servetus) at the stake. The old Sardisean would not have put up with it! There are spiritual difference that befell the church in time…

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. - 1 Corinthians 2:13

But what can we say to those who cannot see these things?

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. - 1 Corinthians 2:14

You can’t see that your understanding of the churches has no biblical defense. So I don’t know what to say.

The Messianic Congregation, that is, the entire people of God in Jesus Christ our Lord--His one holy catholic and apostolic Church, has been here since the beginning.

That's what Christianity is.
