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.
A New Abraham, A new Joseph, A new Moses,...

No, but I am very interested in finding out.
As this is a history forum, I am sure you will provide us with historical documentation.

I was hoping YOU would do some providing.
And documentation, I consider secondary to sensibleness.
But I don't expect a whole lot of that.
I expected The New Adam to be the end of "New Anybodies".
It is as if someone took that idea and began to run in a New Direction with it. I was wondering how many New Directions besides Adam, there is to go with it.

In Romans, Paul says that Adam was a type of Him who was to come. There are others, such as Moses, Joseph, David, Solomon, etc...many of the major figures on the bible are foreshadowing of Jesus. Even once, Jesus refers to himself as the new Moses. But the root of all of these is the creation of humanity where Jesus is the first creation of the restored human race. Therefore, we go back to the garden to find our roots. I think that our father Abraham has more parallels to God the Father than to Jesus...

The Church is composed of thinking individuals.
What a relief that we need not parrot official positions to be understood & appreciated.
Mighty wide of ya, Pete.
