How Blessings Work
The Blessings system is a unique and original feature of Christian Forums, not found anywhere else. Essentially, it allows more interactivity between members and other members, and between members and the site itself. It allows you to use the Customizer to customize your Profile and Posts, get Armor of God and Special Items, get a CF Pet, and basically Bless other members!
How to GAIN blessings:
1. Be nice to other members and they can bless you by clicking the blessings icon underneath your posts!
2. Make new posts and you get 1 blessing per post.
3. Refer a new member and you get 10 blessings when he or she registers.
4. Play a quiz and you get 1 blessing for each correct answer if you pass, and 10 bonus blessings if you get all questions correct.
5. Get a top arcade score and you get 1,000 blessings instantly.

Enjoy blessing each other, and remember - it's more blessed to give than to receive!
