  • 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.

If Christ made all things, He existed before all things. The words spoken in regard to this are so decisive that no one need be left in doubt. Christ was God essentially, and in the highest sense. He was with God from all eternity. God over all, blessed forevermore.
The Lord Jesus Christ, the divine Son of God, existed from eternity, a distinct person, yet one with the Father. He was the surpassing glory of heaven. He was the commander of the heavenly intelligences, and the adoring homage of the angels was received by Him as His right. This was no robbery of God.

- when I read that my Mouth just went and spoke all by itself(well... without my help anyways.) I just kept saying praise Jesus and worthy worthy worthy, for a couple of mins, I started wondering when I would stop saying it.

Have you read Proverbs 8? I was blown away when I read it. This is Jesus being spoken of here. I love discovering things about our God, everyday. I sometimes get so overwhelmed with my love for Jesus, I start crying. The love He has for me, that He died for me. I come close to understanding what Paul meant when he said that God's love surpasses all knowledge.

How, how can I truly thank my Lord, for who He is, for what He has done for me? Think on this, God is so big, so powerful, so all mighty, He could have wiped us of the face of the earth because of our sin ( I mean we have seen some powerful men in the history of mankind), but He is a LOVING God, a forgiving God, that He would come in the flesh so that we have a chance to be saved. How beyond awesome is that? Knowing that the most powerful Being in the universe LOVES us.

Humbles me. :bow:
