• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

In the "cannabis" thread you said
"Illegal drugs and some legal drugs as well as alcohol is a form of devil worship and will not be tolerated by God. There r versious forms of worship and allowing urself to be influenced by a demon is one of those forms. When u do a drug or take alcohol u go into an alternate state of consciousness which allows u to be influenced by a demon thus a form of devil worship. About a year after I recieved God's Spirit into my heart I went to an old friends house and he lit up a joint. I would have to say that I did what I did because God wanted to show me something. I told him to give me some and I smoked it. After a years without I was really high. I realized what I had done and started asking God to forgive me. It was the only time that God has ever spoken to me like one person speaks to another. God said (I am everything the universe and everything in it is nothing, u r privileged because u know the way, u r privileged because u have stood in the presence of God). Then His Spirit left my heart and the inborn nature came back in. The bible says the enemy comes in like a flood. That is exactly how that thing came back into my heart. I was never so afraid for my soul as i was then. I had no faith left. I went home called a an elderly woman from my church that I had a lot of confidence in to come pray with me. She did and in about 10 or 15 minutes I knew that God had forgiven me but I prayed all that night and almost all the next day before God's Spirit would come back into my heart and cast out what had come back in. During that time it was almost as if I were demon possessed. There is a part in the bible that talks about when a demon has gone and the place is swept and clean and he returns and brings 7 worse than he is. Their combined power had me almost as if I were demon possessed, the urges were so strong that I could not say no to them. I was at work and could do little but my boss's sister worked for him and she had let me know that I could have her , I just ignored her. That day I went after her, I could not say no to the urge. She was busy that day or I may be in hell today. I hope this helps someone."

You said when you were "really high" god spoke to you "like one person speaks to another" and that it was "the only time". Given these circumstances would you conceed that it is possible that it wasn't to some degree affected by the drug.

It also brings up other interesting questions - are witch doctors/shamans any less talking to god when they take their own concoctions?

i'm not sure why you started a thread in response to a single person.

that being said,

uh, no? since you can be influenced by demons at any time, you're participating in devil worship all day. not everyone has the same response to drugs as you do as well.
