• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

But to get into prophecy is so touchy with all the different views out there....but the end is coming!
I can tell you this for sure, there is coming a time that the government will not be there for you, a time when it will be hard to buy food, a time of unrest and civil disobedience

Yes there is and this is one of the things that is going on in our church. We have a lady that wants to be a preacher. I don't know what you think about that...I just don't see it in the Bible...but she is pushing herself to try to get into a position that doesn't belong to her. Almost like she wants to be the Pastor's wife and in charge.
this is one of those subjects out there, but i agree with you. I see its ok for her to teach but i think the bible states the man is the preacher, hes the leaderof the flock

I know some lady missionaries that have led villages to the Lord. She was the only one there and God used her. But in a place where there are men...I believe he should be the head.

i agree with you. a woman can be used of god. she can be a teacher, a missionary, and she can minister to others. Joyce meyer has a huge minisrty. I watch her sometimes though i do not agree with all she says, shes good, interesting, and funny. she calls herself a preacher.

someone else asked this question just the other day...and to me I kind of associate the two to be the same since people of different religions call them pastor or minister, elder, bishop and so on...

Yeah, I haven't really listened to Joyce Meyer. I know the name but I have changed a channel before and she was up there preaching away and just couldn't listen to it. Maybe I'm just old fashion of whatever, and maybe because of my upbringing in a pastor's home it's hard for me to get past that.

thats ok. i havent felt drawn to watch her in over a year. Two things she said bothered me. But she has touched and helped others in this life.
