  • 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

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

I am terribly sorry to hijack your thread again, but it is the only one I can post in. :)

After a very long Bible Study last night, I came to the conclusion that the Holy Spirit:

1 Corinthians 2:10 - has intellect.

1 Corinthians 2:11 - has a mind.

Ephesians 4:30 - can be grieved.

Acts 16:6 - has a will.

Acts 5:3 - can be lied to.

My main "beef" (make that tofu) with the Trinity is/was the personality of the Spirit (though I suggested in GT that Jesus is not God, that obviously contradicts Scripture).

I recant of my non-Trinitarian view, as little time as I held it.

EDIT: Das, I just noticed your thread. :p

It's good to see you've come to see the truth through Bible study. That just shows how important daily devotionals are. I thought it is hard to change you faith icon. Because you just changed it and , I would assume you're going to change it back.

We could sticky this and make it our general discussion thread. I've always thought just a general discussion thread would be good, and that's the way this thread is going. Can you change the name of threads, so that if you did sticky it, it could be named GENERAL DISCUSSION or something.

The forums quite busy this morning. I thought I'd raise this point in here. Quite often I can't reach CF because of database being down and sometimes like this morning, everything works really slow. I'm wondering if anyone else experiences that.

yup.

It happens occassionally. Erwin will be contacted by staff and work out the issue. It could be anything from a down server to problems with their hosting company, etc.

What about calling it something that gets across the idea of fellowship? That's the kind of thread this is. Then it would be clear that it is open to everyone but not for debating about theological issues or whatever.

Some of the other congregational forums have fellowship stickies; they usually have names that have something to do with food: "The Potluck" (Baptists), "Covered-dish Dinner" (Wesley's Parish), "Dining Hall" (Reformed), "Uncle Hiram's Deli" (Messianic Judaism), etc. If anyone has any creative names, feel free to suggest them. :)
