  • 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.

...so here it is...

I was posting a post on the one of the L.D.S.(mormon) threads, and I realized that I had just posted part of my testimony. so here it is...

...I do not have all the answers, I have never claimed to have all the answers, to do so would be blasphemey, as only God has all the answers.
I only know what I know.
I only know what God has chosen to reveal to me.

I know for a fact that the Bible is the word of God.
I know for a fact that God is real.
I know for a fact that Jesus Christ is God

I know that Jesus is God, not only thru His revelation, but that He has healed me of Cancer, and several other rude (and some not so rude) maladies

I know that Jesus Is God because by His grace, and by His power I was pulled from a life of despondency and despair,
He has healed my broken spirit,
He has healed by battered body,
He has healed my beliegured soul

He is Lord. He is God. He is the Lamb of God slain since before the foudation of the world.

He allways was, He allways is and He allways will be GOD

He never was anything less than God,
He never "became" God, as Smith claims.

I do not have the testimony of a "burning in my bossom" (whatever that is susposed to mean)

God, through His servant Jeremiah, tells us that the "...heart is evil and excedingly wicked, who can abide by it"

My God is not a God of "warm fuzzies"

I have THE testimony of a changed life!!!!

we overcome that pointy headed scumbag who seeks to kill, steal, and destroy, by the Blood of Jesus, the word of our testimony, which is somthing that no one can take away, as the results speak for themselves, and that we are ready to die if need be, to further His glory!

no need to smuggle a gun into jail here

If Jesus wants me to 'take one on the chin for the team' as it were,

so be it

:amen:
