  • 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.

    Is it faith, works, or both?

    and there are other lexicons that don't mention 'obey' 'obedience' 'comply' at all: Friberg, Gingrich and most notably these glosses are missing from BDAG 2003 what? the basic static use of eivj is 'in'. see eivj in Robertson p.591-593 1. Original static use (591) "In itself eivj expresses...

    The Angel of God is....God.

    well, oldest and best manuscripts (used in NA27, UBS4) have: No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God (μονογενὴς θεὸς) who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him (Joh 1:18 NASB) so that (as i see it)...

    The Angel of God is....God.

    The above underlined and bolded is illogical. A son needs to be born right...somehow, otherwise there's no use in talking of a son (or for that matter a father, for a father that doesn't beget anything is not a father) If there's no Son from eternity past, then there is neither the Father from...

    Finally!! A Prayer We Can All Pray For Obama!

    Jesus answered [to Pilate], Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: (Joh 19:11) do you think Obama's power as president was given him from above? also we know from the NT that 109.8 as quoted in Acts 1 is talking about Judas Iscariot the...
