  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

The amplified version is at least a translation with encapsulated amplification set within it. The clear word is NOT the Bible. If you want to use it for devotions then that is fine. As a matter of fact I think that is how this book came about. What I would recommend is that if you read a certain section of the clear word and something doesn't ring true for some reason , then you should go to the NKJV or KJV and re-read what the actual scriptures say. Even then you may not get what the original author intended. I have an interlinear Bible ( Greeen's) that also gives numbers for each word's placement in the Strong's exhaustive concordance. It's amazing how much difference you will see at times from the original language to the present translations.

Many Adventist use it such, you have to keep it separate.
