• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Man operating in the flesh/own mind...so true. Christ came as the door (back) to innocence ...the mystery hidden in the gospel...Christ IN you. When we look outside of that...instead of within, which is the dwelling place of God...it is about FINDING out who we are IN HIM and HIM IN us...

When man comes face to face with God he will die...is a picture of the process taking place within that brings us to the end of 'self'...the revelation of the son...we are

The kingdom is within...yet so many continue to look without...and the call is to "come out of her" to wake up and find our 'self' ...IN Him. ONE ... instead of two. Eating from either the feast prepared by her/woman outside/two become one... or reclining at the table prepared...through the door.
The revelation of The SON Who alone is the visible manifestation/image of GOD and who those who believe in HIM are already in

Philip said "show us THE FATHER" and it will suffice

CHRIST, THE WORD made flesh who came forth from GOD and into the world, said

Philip how long have I been with you and you do not know ME?

He who has seen ME has seen THE FATHER

And how do you say "show us THE FATHER?"

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Both clean and unclean went into the ark that Noah (the 10th from Adam) built, and all that came out of it God gave him for food.

yes, and as for what that "ark" and that "flood" really were, it is another question...

How did the animals get from "very good" to both "clean and unclean ..."

A common theme among unclean animals is that they are predators or scavengers and these did not exist prior to the Fall, so the nature of animals was also corrupted, but conditions will one day be restored to what they were prior to the fall, with children being able to stick their hands in a viper's nest and not being harmed (Isaiah 11:8).

when a law is created/spoken the opposite to it is also ...
Then we have to learn (since we are so "wise" now that we disobeyed and ate from the tree of knowledge of both good and evil) to make a right judgement

to judge is to measure .... a reasoning between two opposites .... Jesus kept the law and therefore did not reason between the two, but kept his eye single and therefor their was no duality in his perception ....

There could be no duality in HIM
since HE came forth from
THE FATHER and always did whatever pleases the FATHER

There are myriads of truths in it ...
Only ONE TRUTH and TESTIMONY

when a man receives GOD's TESTIMONY which HE has given of HIS SON, that man sets to his own (spirit) seal that GOD's WORD is TRUTH
