  • 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.

Hey all out there on this magical forum...

My prayer request may be for something that seems very strange in this day and age, and i don't know if anyone else has requested this, but i have a burning need for the back up of all of you out there... here goes:

Even though I'm only 16, my boyfriend and i have moved tremendously fast in our relationship over the past three years (give or take a few months) and recently, we kinda went a little too far and, yea, i think you can guess what happened. But as a result, we have decided to both cool it for two years. We kinda took an informal vow of abstinance from all things sexual, anything except kissing and hugging and stuff like that.

Now that, in itself is hard, but we only get to see each other for about three weeks a year, and we believe that God brough us together for a reason, and that reason was NOT to be this horny... so im asking you all out there, please, pray for me and my boyfriend so that we can keep this promise to each other, to ourselves, and more importantly, to God.

Give us strength, courage and commitment ot do this.

Thank you

Hello Shadowed, this is the voice of experience speaking: I once heard a definition of wisdom as doing now what you won't regret in the future - be wise in your love for each other and be mindful of your love not just for him but for God. Your job is to do whatever necessary to not tempt him, and his job is to do whatever necessary to protect you (both). Your purity is a gift from the Holy Spirit, and He will lead you in the way of righteousness every time, so just follow Him. Don't see each other except when there are other people around, like when someone else is home or go date out in public. Lots of people will talk about teenage hormones and all that, but grown up hormones rage just as hard! Keep in mind that your sexual activity now will affect your relationship in the future, and if this one isn't "the big one" it will affect all your other relationships in the future too. Be blessed little sister, and hunger after righteousness that you may be filled.

Lord I ask that you give her and her boyfriend the strength and willingness to obey You and stay true to their promise. Give them incite as to what You want for their future, and keep them close to you. Fill them with the Holy Spirit, and keep them stable on the right path. In Jesus name Amen.

The thing is, we only see each other three weeks a yea, and well, that time is spent sleeping at each others houses... don't worry, seperate rooms and patrolling parents are in force... but as for the teenage bit... i am, still a teenager...

I know kinda what you mean, but the only see each other in public thing is rather impossible at the moment... thanks anyway though...:wave:
