• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

How many of you creationists...

Because your painting an image of God as hiding the truth about His Own Creation.
Oh, I think God is pretty good at painting His own image --- in writing --- don't you?

I'm surprised there aren't creationist archeologists right now digging in the desert for a woman named Wisdom.
That's probably why you aren't a creationist archaeologist --- are you?

Like I always say --- if you guys ran the world like you interpret the Bible --- we would be in trouble.

If my reputation or post count or breathing bothers anyone, I can't help that.

Bother? ROFLMAO...

I think it's absolutely hysterical that you place any importance in it.

All the time you waste here could be spent volunteering at Church. Or how about a soup kitchen, orphanage or homeless shelter. They don't care much about post counts there. Neither does God.

Ye are saved through Faith, not post counts.

And you've got scripture to show that the bible is to take precedence I gather ?
Psalm 119 for starters:

Consisting of the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet --- each having 8 verses --- or 176 verses in all.

Making it the longest chapter in the Bible, with every single verse except 4 giving precedence to the Word of God.

And common sense for enders:

Which should take precedence?

Special Revelation --- or General Revelation?

Nope, I'm a God fearing Anthropology student.

BTW...take a look around you...the world IS in trouble...

In fact, I need to have my head checked for even conversing with you.

God will heal you if you ask him. Oh ye of little faith...

Oh, did I mention I believe in the healing power of Christ?

About us all being Created. There is a place in this discussion where I can agree with AV. It's semantics though. Here's what I mean. For an atheist, the natural process of the power of life itself is the creating agent. Evolution is the process. But life itself creates. From that perspective, I feel that an atheist can rightly say that life Created life. And thus in that way of life creating life, we were Created. And personally, even as a lover of God, I totally agree with that perspective.

Hmm
God reveals Himself to us in two ways:

1. General Revelatlion = Nature
2. Special Revelation = Scripture


The two are not to conflict with one another, and the Bible is to take precedence.
So I ask And you've got scripture to show that the bible is to take precedence I gather ?
Your answer Psalm 119
But Psalm 119 Doesn't say take the Bible (Not written at the time Psalm 119 was written anyways) over General Revelation.

If fact Psalm 110:89 For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
States that Nature(heaven) is where the word is settled
