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

That's Dutch, isn't it? Except it says 'ist' and the Dutch for that would be 'is'.
God is mighty
His power works especially for those who seek him and love him

That's my best shot, but I've only just started learning Dutch, and I'm sure other people will be able to do much better!

:thumbsup: it's Dutch...but as my sis says " Dutch is what comes out when an Englishman tries to speak German" ^_^ :sorry:

and as far as I can judge from my knowledge of German (don't speak Dutch beside a few words) your translation is really good :)

I just would have done the second line different - but you've got to keep in mind that I don't speak Dutch...

God is mighty
His power is at work especially in those who have Him in their harts and who love Him.

In German:

Gott ist mächtig, seine Kraft wirkt besonders in jenen, die Ihn in ihr Herz gelassen haben und Ihn lieben.

Can you please translate this quote
"Gott ist machtig
zijn kracht werkt bijzonder
in hen die Hem zoeken
en liefhebben."

God is mighty...

Gutentag :wave: ,

The first two words are German ('Gott ist' = 'God is' in Dutch), but the rest is Dutch...

Translation:

''God is mighty
His power works in a special way
in those who seek Him
and love Him.''

Hope that helps!

God bless!
