Concerning your second question CARM is another website.

Audios 1 and 2 seem to be incomplete.

IT HELPS. THANKS. I PLAN ON TALKING ABOUT THE ARGUMENT FROM CONTENGENCY AND THE BIG BANG THEORY THIS WEEKEND AS A GIFT TO MY FAMILY DURING MY CHRISTMAS PARTY THIS WEEKEND. I WAS THINKING THAT IF WE REWIND THE UNIVERSE TO A ZERO POINT AND HAD A SMALL AMOUNT OF MASS, HOW DID WE GET SO MUCH MASS IN OUR UNIVERSE. IT SOUNDED LIKE SOMETHING COULD COME FROM NOTHING AND NEEDED UNDERSTANDING.

I ASK THAT ALL THE CCF STUDENTS AND STAFF HAVE A JOYFUL TIME AND LAUGH A LOT AND HARD. I ALSO ASK THAT DURING THOSE GOOD LAUGHS YOU ALL WOULD THANK GOD IN THAT VERY MOMENT AND CATCH A GLIPMSE OF HEAVEN. AND DONT FORGET TO INVITE JESUS IN. HE LOVES TO DWELL W/ HIS PEOPLE. IN JESUS NAME, AMEN AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

…like a balloon that is deflating.

Thanks for being thorough in your response. My third question comes from somewhere in the 1st module. It’s an extra credit “RightNow Media” video w/ Stephen C. Meyer. He talked about the expansion of the universe and something Stephen Hawking said about “zero point???”. I cant honestly remember the theory Hawking came up with. Its what happens if the expansion of the universe went back in time, like a balloon.

This is hard to explain nonverbally, and as I keep trying to write it out, I seem to be getting no where. So, it might be easier to take baby steps. Maybe you don’t no what I’m asking because I have a complete misunderstanding about mass, gravity, and energy.

If there is a “zero point” and no mass, is there a “set amount” of mass in the universe? Does this support that God had to speak the universe into existence?

Hi! When are we going to start threading on the forums? I’d like to tell people how CCF Bible College has been a blessing but I feel like I have too much to say. I think it will be easier to thread. That way we are all in the same boat and know which teaching are impacting/inspiring us.

Sorry it should read “Demolish strongholds”

[Arlene]

When we suffer it is because God removes a hedge of protection, and yet “He will never leave us or forsake us.” God tempts us to do good like Job and say “The Lord gives and takes away blessed be the name of the Lord” and “Should we only except the good things from God and not the bad?”
Satan on the other hand, tempts us to lose our integrity, to blame and curse God. Remember, Satan wants us to suffer not God. Satan is already cursed and defeated. The enemy may know our weaknesses but so does God who is our strength.
If you feel defeated remember ” greater is he that is in you than he who is in the world.” We are also a body and there are 2/3 of angles fighting with us.
God, help us to believe in you, remember your promises and stand firm in them. Make us more and more like you, always giving back what You have given to us b/c “with your power working in US, you can do much, much more than anything we could ask or image.” Thank you for all that you’ve done,Amen.

So can a woman be a deconess or be called a deaconess under leadership in a congregation? Is it biblical?

[Arlene]

I agree with you. Another reason that blows my mind is I am allowed to enter His presence and not die as I’m confessing my sin.

AMAZING GRACE!!!!! Thank you God!

Giving back what has been given and eternal: God’s Word, faith, hope, love.

Sorry, Genesis 1:3 not Genesis 13.

Hello again,
There isn’t a “study 2″uploaded in week 6.

[Arlene]

Hi! I was wondering what you thought of the podcast? What did you learn about their manuscripts and how to evangelize to Muslims?

[Arlene]

Ok thanks. That brings up another question. I was taught that the root word for Deacons doesn’t say male or female but only minister. Can you please explain?
