  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Isaiah Chapter 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

Around 700 years before Jesus was born Isaiah is very specific about the birth of Jesus.
...
It would be a miraculous sign Jesus would be born of a virgin.

There are many scriptures in the Old Testament telling about the birth of Jesus and even the town where He would be born. When God says something is going to happen it does and always on time.

Another amazing thing about the Old Testament scriptures about the prophecy of the birth of Jesus is that it was not one prophet who foretold the birth of Jesus. One could have been enough, but God gives us His word to build our faith.

Faith comes by hearing the word of God. If one prophet only foretold of the birth of Jesus there are many that would say it was just luck.

God use many men in different times of history, beginning in Genesis to predict the birth of Jesus.

I have heard people say God does not have to prove He is real. I agree He does not have to, but He wants people to know that He is real, and that He created all things in heaven and in earth.

His holy word that He has given us is given in a way that does prove He is real. However, they are a lot of people in this world that try’s to prove the bible is wrong. They are just as blind as they can be.

The bible declares the birth of Jesus throughout history in the Old Testament and with different people.

There is no other book in the world that compares to the bible. It Is The Word Of God.

Another thing that is amazing to me is how anyone can read the Old Testament and not come to the conclusion that Jesus is the Son of God.

And that He was born into this world through a virgin named Mary and God Himself is the Father.

Praise God His word is trust worthy, and we can trust everything the bible says. What God word says will happen will happen and nothing can stop it.

His word says Jesus is Coming again.
