  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Is Hell Annihilationism or Eternal Torment

    I'm not sure what you mean here. But believing sinners receive eternal life now. In the present time. Our glorified bodies are received later. Again, I do not know exactly what you are saying here. You are not saved simply because you are a descendant of Israel. John 8:39-47.

    Is Hell Annihilationism or Eternal Torment

    For sure. If I may ask, what do you do with all those passages about Hell and eternal punishment? Because Jesus talked more about Hell than anyone else in the Bible.

    Thanks for sharing with you. I like having discussions with civil manners. Yeah, people IMHO have their own prerogative & aptitude to seek what they wish.

    Is Hell Annihilationism or Eternal Torment

    I agree with some of what you write, and contest the rest. I learned a long time ago to read everything I can get on hands on. But the historic fact is that the Bible is the only reliable source. That's where I base my confidence, because it is the word of God. And many upon many facts back this...

    Is Hell Annihilationism or Eternal Torment

    I agree with Dan1988, because creation cannot partake in the divine essence of the Triune Trinity.

    Is Hell Annihilationism or Eternal Torment

    Exactly right! BTW, Calvin disliked the nickname "Calvinism" coined by the Lutherans. A matter of fact, Calvin preferred Doctrines of Grace because this is what the Scriptures teach. People misconstrue this point often, if not all the time. They use ad hominem tactics instead of presenting a...

    what is Calvinism answer to how God works?

    Okay, then why do we need the Bible at all then? Or how about Jim Jones who massacred hundreds or David Koresh. Paul tells us to be like the Bereans who challenged Paul when he preached.
