“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel”—Matthew 1:23 Immanuel is God with us. We here ascend infinitely above the human. It is not merely an angel that is with us- a man that is with us; it is Deity who is with us, none less than Jehovah Himself...
I cut myself on Sunday, I hadn't done that for a few weeks. It's been a long time since I purged, which I guess is a good thing. I feel guilty for it, but I'm trying, I really am. I just...ache, I guess. Everywhere, in my heart, my bones...I finally managed to go to school last week, after...
Evelyn Jay is gone. Austin is gone. Pepper isn't Pepper, Mel is silent and acting weird. I'm alone again. I'm left alone again. This always happens, once things start to look up, something snatches it away, rips it to bits and leaves me b r o k e n and going crazy. Maybe I wasn't good enough...

I prefer the Byzantine manuscript tradition for my New Testament Bible translations, e.g., KJV or NKJV. I use the two Englishman's Greek and Hebrew concordance volumes often when working with the Hebrew and the Greek. I often work directly with the The Greek New Testament for Beginning...

WOW CF is so slow. Not much conversation. Hard to fellowship and play games. Back in Erwin's days there was so much action. It use to be difficult to keep up on all the conversations.
I'm no longer a teenager, but an adult as of the 7th of November. I feel called to join the Army, but at the same time, I don't want to. I wouldn't be able to go through with it, and to go off to any wars and kill people who are doing what they're told to do by their leader, just as we are...
I am still shocked at the death of my friend, John Gugie. He passed away November 2, 2011, 10 days before his 36th birthday. He had Duchene's Muscular Dystrophy and was in bad shape. However, the death was still a surprise to all close to him as it came without warning during a procedure in the...

Paul teaches us that attempts by men to overcome their limitations through works to seek approval by God are in vain--man's vanity. For Paul, man must acknowledge his unworthiness and place all their confidence in God's mercy for man's acceptance before Him. When James speaks of faith and...

I learned something new yesterday. Someone was asking in the Christian How-To forum why they could not see the Chat Box when they were logged in. Yet they were able to see just fine when logged out. Apparently you need 100 posts to be able to participate. Good to know if a newbie asks...
CF Characters are the things that some of us have as our avatar. It seems like they just recently started working again. YAY! I use to host CF Character Dress-Up Contest as catofhope. Last ones I did were in October of 2007 before marriage. Hubby and I are hosting a Movie Dress-Up...

The question of the difference between ought and can (with regard to man) is important, just as is the matter of relating the will of God to the manner of its expression. There is no ought to with regard to God's behavior—whatever God wills for himself is right ethically, and aligns with God’s...
Hubby picked up Marry Me from Redbox yesterday. Neither of us realized it was a mini-series. It had a Part 1 and a Part 2. Apparently it was originally shown on tv over two nights. We were pleasantly surprised with it. It had alot of witty dialogue. It stars Lucy Liu. She initially...

We are just not as free as we tend to think we are. So when "free will" is bandied about, persons need to carefully define what that really means to one another before the conversation can even proceed. The Reformed view of free will is that all men possess the liberty of spontaneity, the...
I was reading a post in a Reformed subforum. The post in question is called Am I a Calvinist? One of the respondents posted "If you agree with the Westminster Confession of Faith you are guilty of being a Calvinist and even more, guilty of being a Reformed one, too." I guess I have...
