  • 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.

Hi,

I read one of the best papers on the Atonement I've ever read by John Murray. He was a reformed theologian and professor at Westminister Theological Seminary as well as Princeton Theological Seminary. He taught systematic theology. Here's his paper (it's not that long but it's really, really just so outstanding it's excellent, imo, on something so powerful as the Atonement):

It really makes it easy, imo, to "put together" all the truths about God's Sovereign Grace in Jesus Christ. Also, I think as believers the Lord would have us to focus on what Jesus did on the cross so that we can really understand and appreciate how completely God has saved us through Jesus Christ. :thumbsup:

There are many other reformed writings on this "graceonlinelibrary" as well. The work by John Murray is one of numerous writings that others might enjoy.

Grace and peace,

Laura "LeeLee"
