  • 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.

Before I became a Christian? No, but I had a friend that was. I really wish he got saved by now but I really don't know. Haven't heard from him in a long time.

When I became a christian I lost my best friend who said I was mad and a few other things. I haven't seen in near two years and he only lives down the street.

I know that things like that can be really hard, especially when he lives so close. I may sound very silly but at the time I got saved I knew my life just turned upside down. I really prefer to forget thinking about the past. Cross happened in the past but our Lord and glory is present and future. ^_^

I tried to persuade him but didn't really work. My Bible knowledge way really minimal at the time so I probably didn't sound convincing enough or give him enough truth but maybe something happened. Anyway, past is past.
And my past before I got saved is dead to me.

Very true! You're a new creation in Christ! All believers are!:clap::bow:

Ive a relief or even a serenity I never had before. I always felt I was missing something.

Yep. Same here.

I grew up in a Christian home. Went to church everytime the door was open. I thought I got saved when I was about 8 years old.

I always had doubts though. Like something was amiss.

So, nearly 3 years ago God spoke to my heart and I nailed down my salvation.:bow:

Yep, church was like that for me until I started going to the church I'm at now.

Glad you found a church you like. :thumbsup:

Here is a little something I wrote myself on a day I was feeling down, I thought I'd share :)

My LORD, sometimes I fear, sometimes I fear what is to come

For what the next day will bring

Sometimes loneliness and despair fulfills my heart

Sometimes confusion blinds my eyes

My LORD, I am going to need a miracle

But I know You are always there

Always You have helped me

And raised me higher then the mountains

But sometimes I feel as low as the oceans

And hope leaves my heart

My LORD, this time I feel lost

I cry out to You in prayer

With tears falling from my eyes

Sorrow that could fill a thousand rivers

And time continues never endless

My heart and mind are troubled

My LORD, please be my miracle

Please lift this burden away from me

And pierce my heart with Your forever love

And be a light to my eyes

My LORD, I need You now more than ever

Please be my guardian

In times of my deepest need

And guide my each step that I take next

I know You are there for me my LORD

Always You give forgiveness

And when I fall, You are most merciful

But nothing do I deserve

And no way do I know how to give thanks

But yet, You are still there for me my LORD

Not even for one moment do You forsake me

I could never ask for better

Nor ever find better

For You are my LORD

And so great and blessed You are

That you show me everlasting love

In all the days that will come

Amen
