  • 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.

I go to Calvary Chapel. I like studying the Bible. I do a little preach in’. I like it. When the dining room reopens I hope to start again. Glad to make your acquaintance. I got kicked off another forum for talking about Jesus. People who need to hear are closed. Unbelievable, the only one who can help sz and a host of other things is unwanted. No fruit from the homeless either. The Holy Spirit is awesome. He likes people in ministries. Fills in the blanks of my messages which I write. I put my heart in it, so does He, no takers. Sixteen years and a few Thank yous. I met a lot of nice people but only a few can live it. Thanks for the encouragement but...

Welcome to CF. You seem kind of bitter that some do not accept the gospel. Jesus said it would be that way. I am glad you have not given up though and pray you find people more receptive here.

We may not know which seeds will grow. I grew up in a non-Christian home but a young German woman taught me to pray in German when I was four. In our home, I was the only one who prayed. I prayed silently when I went to bed. When I was fifteen, I decided to pray on my knees beside the bed. My mother saw me and kicked my derriere. "Get in bed!" she said.
