  • 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 Small Are We?

Just how small are we compared to God? How are we created in His image?
Mankind is made up of what I'll call cells. These cells are intelligent and have a reason and purpose. They work and operate the body. This body is run by a head (Jesus/Yeshua). Within this head is a brain (Father). But the body would be nothing at all if not for the life within it. (Holy Spirit)
This does not make these cells Gods but of the body of God. It is in this way that mankind was created in the image of God. God is three in one and still all and in all. One God--Jesus/Yeshua.
COLOSSIANS 1:15-18--Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature. 16--For by Him were ALL things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM, and for him. 17--And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18--And He is the HEAD of the body (Jesus/Yeshua)the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead (Jesus/Yeshua) that in ALL THINGS he might have preeminence.--KJV
Jesus/Yeshua is the Father,son and Holy Spirit and also in all of us--One God. The point being that without our brain/head we are dead. Without acceptance that God is God and his name is Jesus Christ/Yeshua--we are dead.
Matthew 11:27--Ephesians 4:4-6--John 14:7--John 14:9--Isaiah 45:22-23--1 John 4:13--Rev. 1:17-18

All I know is.. Isaiah 40:12 "Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, measured heaven with a span and calculated the dust of the earth in a measure? Weighed the mountains in scales and the hills in a balance?" I think we are...pretty small. lol. Just by that verse. By his image, meaning we look like him? like head down to toes. Not having any other type of weird thing like covered in eyes or whatever else we may dub as weird. God's Angel's, most aren't our definition of "normal" or "in his image" so yeah
