  • 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

Does GOD have a sense of humor?

oh yeah he does..he tells Job to grab a hold of his underwear because he is gonna question him..then proceeds to deal out some major sarcasum. I would have soiled my pants too hahahaha....

God does have a great sence of humor..for example, why would he make passing gas so its hard to conceil..because people get a good chuckle out of it..or men to anyway...

He certainly does indeed, using my unsaved, cynical dad to bring me a great uplifting Christian book. (dad bought it prolly coz it's an end time book).
anyway, i was in pretty dry water till the book came.(accidentally came across it too as it was sitting on the table collecting dust!)

>>of course GOD has has a sense of humor

I did a search of scripture of when God laughs. The only passages I can find is when someone has pride and is in the process of being humbled. Some people can laugh at themselves freely, because they do not mind being humbled. Others have a problem with it. They are a bit more sensitive. Thanks, JohnR7

I've always thought this story in Luke was funny:
When the days for his being taken up were fulfilled, he resolutely determined to journey to Jerusalem, and he sent messengers ahead of him. On the way they entered a Samaritan village to prepare for his reception there, but they would not welcome him because the destination of his journey was Jerusalem.

When the disciples James and John saw this they asked, "Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?"

Jesus turned and rebuked them, and they journeyed to another village.
I don't know why...

God to Abraham:

10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your seed after you. Every male among you shall be circumcised. 11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of a covenant between me and you. 12 He who is eight days old will be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money of any foreigner who is not of your seed. 13 He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant will be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant. 14 The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant."

LOL. Only a jokester would come up with a requirement like this. While we must follow God's law, it could be He is having us on.
