  • 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.

Proclamation

In my most desperate time of complete sadness and confusion I decided that life in its entirety is both good and bad and I was left feeling very hopeless. I figured out that for every spirit I experienced, every season of my life there was a spirit and season of opposite value. So I said to myself I hope that even this time will pass and perhaps that one day even this season of hopelessness will be flipped and transformed into something better. But I was still hopeless because I said even the good days will go away.

But I came to a place of great ease because I realized that when I come to the place where I have to judge life and decide for myself what it means, I have the right and ability to proclaim that this life overall is good. With my mouth and my word I can declare that overall, my memories and everything I had been given from God was for the better.

I also said, I can forgive anyone for anything and this is great joy for me.
I also remembered scripture that says with our words we will be acquitted and with our words we will be condemned. Perhaps the best thing we have been given is our ability to speak what we believe and profess our faith.
Great fear comes over me when I think I have no choice but to speak praise and forgiveness or I will be put to eternal shame, but we all need to trust that in God's forever mercy for us, He will lead and direct us. He has unfailing love for our plan. He wrote our story long ago.
