So I trust everyone is having fun debating? Debates on the bible and on God and faith are good, they test our spiritual maturity and with the right mind and heart help us learn and grow. I know some debate just for the sake of debating others debate to learn or to make a point but some simple reminders for us all here....1 when debating ask yourself the motive behind your debating, are you really doing for the cause of Christ or just yourself or to be proven right? 2- no matter what and trust me I know it can be hard dont let your emotions take over always do your best to debate and respond in love that means no sarcasm no mocking no talking bad about others you know the the rest. 3 take into consideration others views and feelings, dont just instantly put them off as false and choose your words wisely as not to offend upset or hurt anyone, we are the body of Christ a family and we are to take care of each other. 4 please do not let different beliefs and denominations divide each other and cause dislike and hate for another person we are all the children of God both the saved and the lost. and 5 understand you are no better than the next person, you are not more righteous so therefore cannot look down upon another or judge them.

Ty for taking the time to read this and happy posting:)

Thanks for the input but I prefer to think for myself.

Great advice, FireHeart.

For a person your age, you are wise beyond your years regarding proper debate etiquette for Christians.
