  • 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

Welcome to Proverbs -- A Chapter a Day.

This thread will serve as a meeting ground for those looking for study buddies and accountability.

In the hustle and bustle of our busy lives we sometimes forget to take the time to read Scripture. It's understandable; it happens to us all! Hopefully this forum will serve as an accountability medium and some form of structure to help you stay on track.

Please feel free to tag people to invite them or arrange a specific schedule with your friends or others already participating :) You can tag them by typing their name with an '@' sign in front of it.​

Hi,

When we all begin together, would you mind making a list for the rest of us.

I think, I would like to know those of us, who think this is cool.

LOVE,

Hi,

Since I am told this is true about the usage of Jehovah, rather than Yahweh, is there a way to have the online version not use, the probable incorrect term Jehovah?

Jehovah (/dʒɨˈhoʊvə/ jə-hoh-və) is a Latinization of the Hebrew יְהֹוָה, one vocalization of the Tetragrammaton יהוה(YHWH), the proper name of the God of Israel in the Hebrew Bible.

The consensus among scholars is that the historical vocalization of the Tetragrammaton at the time of the redaction of the Torah (6th century BCE) is most likely Yahweh. The historical vocalization was lost because in Second Temple Judaism, during the 3rd to 2nd centuries BCE, the pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton came to be avoided, being substituted with Adonai ("my Lord"). The Hebrew vowel points of Adonai were added to the Tetragrammaton by the Masoretes, and the resulting form was transliterated around the 12th century as Yehowah.[1] The derived forms Iehouah and Jehovah first appeared in the 16th century.

"Jehovah" was popularized in the English-speaking world by William Tyndale and other pioneer English Protestant translations such as the Geneva Bible and the King James Version.[2] It is still used in some translations, such as the New World Translation and Young's Literal Translation, but it is does not appear in most mainstream English translations, as the terms "Lord" or "LORD": used instead, generally indicating that the corresponding Hebrew is Yahweh or YHWH.[3][4]:5

Hello :) I'm not too sure how to go about that. That's above my 'pay grade', if you will.

If you post here then the Admin that handles that stuff on the server side can get back to you on that :)

I saw that I was mentioned in this thread. Proverbs is one of my favorite books so I'll join in. :groupray:

Hi,

Hello and welcome. When I am too long in battles, I forgot Proverbs. Soon, I did not know what they, were doing. Tishri started me back on these. It is nice to see others, reemerse themselves in God.

Proverbs is like sitting, listening, talking, to God. 'wisdom' comes from that.

A team, (many who are in God), is like jewels. Each one of us a different one, loved and bejeweled, bejeweled by God, loving what God loves, then giving that beauty to others.

Males, you who do not think in those terms. You are skills, and knowledge each one of which God likes (loves), and you are depth (God is also that). To me those things are jewels, you are bejeweled, but I do not have a word for that. Maybe it is love. What you love, is loved by God first, and because you love God, you love that.

So, maybe guys, and guys in all forms, are not jewels but loves. Each one is a different love of God, and you can share that love with others. You love that thing, that skill, that task, because you love God and God loves that task. You love what God loves. But, maybe like for males. The two words are quite similar.

I welcome the chance to hear what God loves, from males.

This will be the third. I am finding that to know how God thinks, allows me to pick and choose every battle, and. And it allows me to love, and to be loved by God again.

LOVE,
