  • 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.

"For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people." ~ Hebrews 2:17

When I was a child, I accepted Jesus’ invitation to his great salvation. From that moment on, he not only became my Savior and my Lord, but he became my very best friend. He has remained so throughout my life. I know I can always count on him to be there for me day or night, in joy or in sorrow, and in sickness or in health. He will never leave me nor forsake me. I know I can depend on his word to me, and I can trust fully in his grace. He is completely faithful in all that he does, and he is fully trustworthy.

I want to know him above all else. I want to speak and to sing in agreement (accord) with him and with his word. I want to feel what he feels, to hear what he is saying, to heed his call upon my life, and to follow him all of my days.

Faithful Friend

An Original Work / April 13, 2011

My loving Father; precious Lord,
To You I lift my voice in accord –
I hear Your pleas; I heed Your call
To worship You only, who ransomed us all.

O Gracious Father; faithful friend,
I know You’ll be with me to the end.
You sent Your Son to die on a tree
So from sin and death I can truly be free.

Oh, Jesus, Savior, King of kings,
You are the Lord of everything.
You died in my place, so I could be free
To serve You only, so all may believe.
