• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Psalm 91:1

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

To learn to dwell in God's Presence is a sign of spiritual maturity and intimacy. His shadow is a dwelling place away from all turmoil and strife in this world. A saint masters the art of being in this world but not of it by dwelling in His shadow.

Amen, Amen, Amen!! There are so few people who understand this concept, and fewer still who practice it.

But those who do practice it find peace in the midst of turmoil.

Start by being quiet, in order for God to rule us in His peace >

"And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful." (Colossians 3:15)

And do not let our attention be controlled by any ideas or pressures or plans which are not in the ruling of God's peace.
