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.

Psalms 34 (select verses)
“I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

Oh, magnify the Lord with me,

“Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of...

“Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” (Ephesians 5:1-2 ESV)
When we imitate God with our lives, we are not mimicking nor are we impersonating him like some actors and...
“See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule...
Servant of the Lord;
For the gospel you’re set apart.
Promised through the prophets of old:
Jesus, Son of God.
Through Him, and for His name alone,
We receive His grace
To call people, Him to obey;
Coming from their faith.
Servant of the Lord,
For the gospel you’re set apart.
Promised through...
To ponder the Nativity is to enter into The Longing, in which a felicitation in our hearts of Jesus’ Incarnation turns to questions like “When , Oh Lord, will you come for your Bride?”—“Then, when will You and your Banqueting Table retinue of Heaven come to earth to commence the Millennial Reign...

The Progressive Journey
I often view this journey as a progression from me to you to we.
The me stage appears to be ok for an infant. They need attention, nourishment, and much milk. Our Heavenly Father makes more allowances for me in the infancy stage.
As we progress (and He expects us...

This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: “Go down to the potter’s house, and there I will give you my message.” ~Jeremiah 18:1-2
I still remember it.
It was at a time when I had accomplished just about every goal I had set in life.

In this world we are going to have enemies, whether or not we are followers of Jesus Christ. But if we are followers of Christ, and if we are living for him, and if we are walking in obedience to his commands in holy living, and if we are not walking in sin, we are going to have enemies who are...
