• 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.

Well, my story is rather long - but to sum it up in as few as words as I can, basically last year I had quite a struggle just keeping my focus on God rather than other things and now I'm focused! . . if you want the full story, you can pm me, but I don't want to make anyone too bored here :yawn:
lol

Wisdom Seeker/Seeker of Wisdom:

A moral rather than an intellectual quality. To be "foolish" is to be godless (Ps. 14:1; compare Judg. 19:23; 2 Sam. 13:13). True wisdom is a gift from God to those who seek it (Job 28:12-28; Prov. 3:13-18; Rom. 1:22; 16:27; 1 Cor. 1:17-21; 2:6-8; James 1:5). "Wisdom" in Prov. 1:20; 8:1; 9:1-5 may be regarded not as a mere personification of the attribute of wisdom, but as a divine person, "Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God" (1 Cor. 1:24). In Matt. 11:19 it is the personified principle of wisdom that is meant.

The name "Wisdom" can be found in the Apocrapha, Nag Hamadi Library, The Dead Sea Scrolls, the Koran(Quran), The Bible, etc. Wisdom is in every religious writing that I've read so far. "Wisdom" is one of the many name's of God.
