  • 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

Nehemiah 9:27 NIV
So you handed them over to their enemies, who oppressed them. But when they were oppressed they cried out to you. From heaven you heard them, and in your great compassion you gave them deliverers, who rescued them from the hand of their enemies.

Interesting verse ... I can see why you had a little trouble with it. It's interesting to me that in the surrounding verses that verse it the one with positive things ... maybe like He hears you ...

I need to go back and look at mine. To tell the truth I can't remember what it was but I remember having to think on it.

was thinking about my 11th grandchild's birthday being 11/11/11 and this thread came to mind ...

John 11:11
Jesus raises Lazrus

These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazrus sleepeth: but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

hmmm ...

companion verses

Deuteronomy 31:16
Joshua commissioned as Moses' successer

And the Lord said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.

Daniel 12:2
the time of the end

And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

Matthew 9:24
He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

Acts 7:60
the martyrdom of Stephen

And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

and my grandaughter whose birthday was 1/1/11

John 1:1
the pre-existent word

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the word was God.

and my son-in-law whose birthday was 1/11/11

2 Peter 1:11
growing in grace

For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lrd and Saviou Jesus Christ.

Biblical mathematics ...

11 = judgement and disorder
