  • 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.

The Divine act…..

Not me

Righteousness is right and not me.

1 John 2:3 (NASB20)
By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scripture puts forth this by this as a touch stone that one can measure one’s knowing of Him; does one keep His commandments…?

Seeing how all His commandments are instructions in, to, and towards righteousness, therefore to the degree one does righteousness to that degree can one know one knows Him…. For knowing Him is the all of everything in the time one has in this world, if one does not know Him all is lost that was meant to be gained…. For Jesus did die and one with Him, to the degree one enters into this truth, to that degree will one discover oneself not doing a righteousness that comes by and through oneself, but doing a righteousness that comes by and through faith in Christ Jesus….

For one keeping His commandments is a Divine act which only Christ’s life in one can accomplish… Faith in this life actually living in and through one, is the faith that will see the reality of this truth….

Oh to the knowing of Him, may His people do an increasing of righteousness so all might know an increasing of Him…. For blessings are to be discovered, to the degree one knows Him…..


Unto Him be our all, Not me
