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

A fellow Reformed member asked me to post the following for them. Please lift this member up in your prayers as we search out a way to assist with this problem.

I just need prayer more then ever.

Psalm 37 really fits me right now. I have many enemies that are against me. So against me that I am suffering persecution from my past (which was dug up in hate against me; to show others that Christians are NOT worthy of grace I assume).

What was found by my ememies has really taken a toll on me. My past, particularily surrounding something I did when a young teen, has caused me years of guilt; that I finally came to terms with; until a few weeks back when it was discovered by people who hate me.

I have been scoffed and made to feel like a horrible person again. I even received one idle threat :(

I fear this will follow me forever; and could use some encouragement and prayer.

Thank you, Phil.

I assume that many did not post so as not to be seen as praying on the street corner so to speak. But, I'm sure it would be of great encouragement to the person whom we are praying for should they see the number of ppl interested in helping.
