  • 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.

    Those Who Find It Hard To Receive, Paralysis!

    GKG, I don't doubt you are hungry for the things of the Spirit of God. My suggestion to you is turn off your head. Especially when it comes to the things you 'think' you should be experiencing in a prayer meeting, for example. I sense your 'frustration'- which is a feeling/mental thing, is...

    Later......

    I did not intend to be disrespectful towards the moderators, or forum admin. in my last post. I have worked as an internet forum moderator in the past, and know a little bit what is required to do the job as a mod. I apologize if my reply came across as disrespectful. I was a bit impassioned...

    Later......

    I have been registered here for 2 days, and I already see what mmmtacos is seeing. Why are the religiousy minded folks being allowed to post such critical harsh stuff here in this WOF forum? I thought I saw a debate forum here at this message board? I, being a WOF church member for many years...

    Is "secular" music ok to listen to?

    I recently started listening to Celtic Music, or music based on music from the Celtic regions of the British Isles. It is considered 'world music' to some. I listen to mostly instrumental tracks, mainly because I don't understand Gaelic- LOL. But anyway, I don't feel my salvation is jeopardized...

    Classic Country

    All my top country artists are the classic folks. I stated in another thread that Waylon is my all time favorite. St. Paul listed most of the others in the reply before mine. Gotta add Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Don Williams, also not as far back as these but Shenandoah is older stuff. Alabama...

    Getting into Country music

    Forgot to add Tracy Lawrence, and Trace Adkins in my last post. Can you tell I am a country music fan? LOL. Waylon is the best of them all in my world. No doubt about it.

    Why do people think Jesus will come on may 21st?

    Same old, same old. How many times do folks have to bang their head against the wall before they know it hurts? Predicting the return of Jesus on a specific day is like banging the head against the wall. The Word of God pretty much covers it. Folks just need to read The Word.

    Do you know what 'tongue' you have?

    I do not know what kind of tongue I pray in, and it doesn't really matter. All I know is I just flow with it, and in it, when I pray in the spirit. I have noticed a difference in the language I pray out in a corporate annointing/corporate prayer setting, or a church service that is a prayer...

    Fishing

    I've fished for over 35 years. Open water, and icefishing. Some years have been better than others as far as time availability is concerned. I do love it. It can be taxing on the wallet if you really get into it. Diligence in finances is key as far as that goes. however. I fish for panfish...

    Handgun Recommendations

    Stay away from Taurus for either caliber. Ruger makes fine handguns, and S&W makes some fine ones prior to the lock era. I am almost done converting my collection to revolvers, and I am partial to Rugers. 9mm- the list is long if you are going to a semi auto. 22 go with a Ruger or Browning in a...
