  • 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.

Where was Jesus when Adam and Eve ate from the tree?

Genesis 3:

8 [Adam and Eve] heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.
Jesus declared in John 14:

11b Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me.
Jesus was in the Father LORD God as the Son of God. Adam and Eve did not know the Son of God.

Matthew 11:

27b No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
Jesus, the Son of God, was not explicitly revealed until the NT. Nevertheless, the Son of God was involved in the creation of Adam.

Genesis 3:


Jesus declared in John 14:


Jesus was in the Father LORD God as the Son of God. Adam and Eve did not know the Son of God.

Matthew 11:


Jesus, the Son of God, was not explicitly revealed until the NT. Nevertheless, the Son of God was involved in the creation of Adam.
Jesus was the Word, and the Word was with God. This NT verse from John 1:1-3 kinda freaks me out, but in a good way, cos for a long time, I have always thought that the Word was the scripture or something, until learning about this a few years ago, if I recall correctly. However, remember that Jesus was discussed about in the OT, and that the Holy Spirit spoke through these OT prophets, so that means that Jesus existed before His conception.

When I meet Jesus in a few decades, I would like to have a word with the Word (pun intended), and have dinner with Him up in Heaven to discuss about creation, as God's creation fascinates me. :)

New Testament
John 1:1-3; 14 (NIV): "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."

Old Testament
Isaiah 7:14 (NIV): "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel."
