• 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.

Giving Back What Was Not Ours to Take

Are we being asked by God to personally and willingly relinquish our knowledge of good and evil in favour of innocence while maintaining our original creativity? The Kingdom seems to support the notion that evil ways will be forgotten and no longer available as an option to avoid , unlike as it originally was in the Garden. Would you now give up that knowledge while yet in this life to show your willingness to follow the will of God? How would that affect your everyday life and those around you?

The mystery of the Kingdom of God is in your midst. Recieve it within you.
Blessings.

As a bait ? Not sure what you mean .
No not as a bait. The ways of the Kingdom are barely mentioned in religion as they conflict with the worldly ways of man and are not good for business. I merely wanted to know what changes no longer being able to know good and evil would make in a persons daily life now might be thought of by viewers, as that will be what is requited of us in the Kingdom.

Ok but the "cats are out of the bag" so it would be impossible for a person to do business completely ignorant of Satan's domain. Afterall, that is what was unleashed in Eden.
Blessings.

Do you have some sort of reference to Scripture, to support what you are talking about?

Are you talking about our life on earth now, or on the future Kingdom of God?

When God forgives our sins, WE do not forget them.
We do not return to some state of ignorant innocence.

could you clarify what you are asserting?

How would on know what the will of God is without knowledge of his laws and statutes?
