• 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.

  • 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.

Christ Is The Spiritual Bread that comes down from heaven.
1 Corinthians 10:17 For we being many are one bread, and one body:
for we are all partakers of that one bread.

John 6:50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven,
that one may eat of it and not die.

John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born
of the Spirit is spirit.

1 Corinthians 10:18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not those who
eat of the sacrifice partakers of the altar?

The Seed of Abraham are children of the promise
Romans 9:
6
But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For they are not
all Israel who are of Israel,
7 nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but,
In Isaac your seed shall be called.
8 That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children
of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed.

Galatians 3:
15
Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it is only a man’s covenant,
yet confirmed, no one can annul or add to it.
16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say,
and to seeds, as of many, but as of one, and to your Seed, which is Christ.
17
And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later,
cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ,
that it should make the promise of no effect.
18 For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise;
but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

The spiritual seed of Abraham are the children of the resurrection
Hebrews 7:16 Who are made, not after the law of a carnal commandment,
but after the power of an endless life.

Romans 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us,
who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2 Corinthians 5:
16
Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh.
Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet
now we know Him thus no longer.
17 Therefore, if anyone in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have
passed away; behold, all things have become new.

In Isaac your seed shall be called.
Galatians 3:29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed,
and heirs according to the promise.

Galatians 4:28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
We should thank God for our daily bread.

Blessed in the asking and receiving.
Likewise, we heard:
You cause the grass to grow for the livestock and plants for man to cultivate, that he may bring forth food from the earth -Psalms 104:14
and wine to gladden the heart of man, oil to make his face shine and bread to strengthen man's heart. -Psalms 104:15

Did we not also hear that our Lord Jesus Christ is the bread of God? Yes, we have.

So He is the one who strengthen our hearts.
