• 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.

And NOW remains FAITH , HOPE , LOVE , these three things , BUT ( THE ) greatest of these ( IS ) Love

#1 the Greek word in the Greek is EMPHATIC ,

#2 ABIDETH // MENO is in the Greek , PRESENT TENSE , ACTIVE VOICE , in the INDICATIVE MOOD , and in the SIGNULAR .

#3 FAITH // PISTIS ins in the NOINATIVE CASE , in the SINGULAR and that there is ONLY one FAITH .

Means that thru faith believe God exists , and that we live by faith , in Rom 1:17

And that we LIVE by faith , Rom 1:17

And Justified by faith Rom 3:26

And that we as Gentiles are the UNCIRCISION THROUGH FAITH , Rom 3:30

And from Gal 3:24 , we are Declared righteousness from Faith

And from Eph 2:8 for by grace saved THOUGH FAITH ,

And by Faith believe we will Govern the Universe , Rom 6:2

And also GOVERN the Angels , Rom 6:3

And by FAITH we believe that we are Christ's EYES , is EARS , HIS FEET , HIS SMELLING

AND we PLANT and WATER what Paul PLANTED , called the MYSTERY , Rom 16:25and 26 we know that we will receive a REWARD .

#2 That is our HOPE , but when we see CHRIST FAITH and HOPE will disappear .

#3 As 1 Cor 13:12 says we will SEE HIM FACE TO FACE


#4 Then our FAITH and HOPE will disappear ,

#4 Then only LOVE WILL REMAIN !!

I do know that my OP IS A SPECK of what it should be and the OLD TESTAMENT and the NEW COVENANT , has never taught what Paul taught .

Love is the greatest quality between faith, hope and love (1 Corinthians 13:13) because God is love and it outlasts faith and hope. Long after the "evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1) are now seen and we are no longer looking for the "blessed hope" - (expectation of what is sure) and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ (Titus 2:13) because we are now in His presence, love will still be the principle that governs all that God, and his saints are and do throughout eternity.
