• 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.

Whether to evangelize or to lend a hand, feel free to assemble thought,

I say to you, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes.
Matthew 10:23

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
(John 9:4)

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.”
(Romans 8:2)

“, , against such things there is no law.”
(Galatians 5:23)​

And the brightness of that day, as well as the darkness of the present night, directed the servant as to what he should be diligent in. Since it is true that ‘the day is at hand,’ let us put on the armor of light, and dress ourselves in garb fitting for it. Since it is true that ‘the night is far spent’ let us put off the works of darkness. - MacLaren

The disciples that Jesus Christ would call apostles -would not have time to go over the cities of Israel before Jesus Christ left - died for our sins - and came back -arose from the dead and would be seen again by many.
Well I inquired over this a little Vinsight and there are some who were unaware to this extent of direction (Disciples only and not to be used as a Church wide admonition by faith) and fairly well up the clerical food-chain.
