  • 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

Rom 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
Amen...grace is the motivating factor. We understand what HE has DONE for us and that because of his grace we can walk in that grace.

Romans 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

Romans 5:21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

GRACE REIGNS..... praise the LORD :)

I can understand your urge to do a bit of a "snoopy dance" ...

I stand corrected, however, was not even close to doing a snoopy dance here....:cry:

.. but you know we should really should be greatly sobered ... that if it were not for the Grace of God and HIS program of Sanctification over MY life ... I would not know or be in a position to understand ...

I AM greatly sobered...and I know its Gods grace alone that enabled me to SEE the mystery once it was presented to me. I dont claim to be super smart or clever...obviously NOT as it took me over 25 years as a believer to come across the MYSTERY truths and SEE.

I would be blind if God did not open my eyes to see.

It isn't by MY ability that I am either "Justified" ... OR "Sanctified" ... but by God's Grace in me.

I have no room for glory except in the Lord Jesus Christ ...

aaaamen....I apologize if I seemed to come across to ANYONE that somehow I was smarter or more clever or superior in ANY way. That is NOT how I see myself at all! But I do thank you for the loving exhortation...we all need to do that inner check every so often and I thank you that you cared enuff to mention it to me. :blush:


Ya gotta LOVE being in the Body...I love you, bro.

Funny, how they skipped the first word of the ten:

And God spoke all these words, saying,

I am Jehovah thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Ex 20:1,2


Jehovah God as Redeemer......

Look at the words carefully...redeemer to whom? Israel.

I KNOW the mystery truths committed to Paul by the Risen Lord Jesus Christ as they are recorded for us in Romans thru Philemon. Pauls writings are said to have COMPLETED the Word of God. God isnt going to give us any more information...we have ALL we need right NOW.

I can read ....if you can read, you can KNOW all that God has told us that is necessary to live the christian life as HE has set it forth in scripture.

Aint that GREAT? No more guessing! Yee haw
