  • 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

Even our suffering is a gift, with it we are purified and will spend less time in purgatory. God is great.


You are a very wise young 'papist' Pio..~smiling~ Nothing happens that God does not permit for our greater good. Though many things are painful, like an operation from a doctor, we know they are necessary for our greater good. And they are also the chance for tremdous merit on our part.

Christ promised us persecution for the sake of following Him. But no matter what may come our way, we always have the Spirit as our ultimate conscience. All we have to do is to put our entire trust in Him and let Him guide our walk on this Earth and carry us when we're worn out.

Remember, my friends, we aren't made for this world. So our suffering reflects on this fact. One day we will enjoy eternal rest in Heaven and worship our Father Most High along with all the saints and angels - all in perfect harmony.

I always rely on a couple of Scriptures.......(just a couple... LOL) :

[font=Arial, Geneva, Helvetica]Ro 5:3 - More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,

Eph 3:13 - So I ask you not to lose heart over what I am suffering for you, which is your glory.

2Th 1:5 - This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be made worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering--

2Ti 1:8 - Do not be ashamed then of testifying to our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel in the power of God,

2Ti 2:3 - Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

2Ti 2:9 - The gospel for which I am suffering and wearing fetters like a criminal. But the word of God is not fettered.

2Ti 4:5 - As for you, always be steady, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry.

Heb 2:9 - But we see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.

Heb 2:10 - For it was fitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through suffering.

Jas 5:10 - As an example of suffering and patience, brethren, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

Jas 5:13 - Is any one among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praise.

1Pe 2:19 - For one is approved if, mindful of God, he endures pain while suffering unjustly.

1Pe 5:9 - Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experience of suffering is required of your brotherhood throughout the world.

2Pe 2:13 - suffering wrong for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their dissipation, carousing with you. God's Peace,

D'Ann
