• 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.

Hello.
Do you believe in miracles, and if yes, to what extent? What is the most profound miracle that you think you have experienced?
Yes, I believe in everything the Scriptures present.

The joy inexpressible and glorious at the indwelling of the Holy Spirit as I experienced him filling every part of my being--even places I didn't know I had, in the rebirth--resurrection from spiritual death into faith and eternal life.

To say they don't or can't happen is to place limits based on my prejudice upon God.
I have never seen a supernatural miracle, other than my conversion.
Evidence of miracles are not needed to believe in God/Christianity, rather those who are not Christian need evidence and reasonable explanations why they do not believe.

It’s not about accepting or rejecting Christianity. It could be for person of any faith or an atheist.

in what sense do you consider your conversion a miraculous event? What happened during it or what led to it?

At least now that I am aware of. I don't look for or expect that.

Or maybe there is. . .I was saved from instant death by a split hair one Christmas night, when I didn't even know I was in mortal peril.
