• 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.

  • 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.

Is it acceptable for a real godly man to seek strength in love from women?

Yes, to some extent, Genesis 2:

18 The LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
A man has to be careful not to depend on his wife too much, Luke 14:

26 If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life--he cannot be My disciple.
Is it acceptable for a real godly man to seek strength in love from women alone?

No, Exodus 15:

2 The Lord is my strength
As a matter of routine practice, we can only depend on God alone.
