• 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

In my heart i keep feeling like God wants people to know that you don't have to be held down by your mistakes. The world loves to keep people down and hurt people. But God is a lifter uper. He does not keep people down but instead he sets people free. Free from their mistakes. Free from their sickness and pain. He has come so that we can be one with God again. Please stop listien to the lie that your past mistakes matter. When you find grace i truly believe he comes to sit yo...u free. It is by grace we are saved. We are not saved by being good. In fact one way or another we all have sinned against God and against his laws. If we have sinned against that how can we say we are good? Only Christ is good. And through that blood we can be good and right again with the father. God loves each of us. He knows our hurts and pains. Please come back to the grace and love of God. Let that grace and love change you from the inside out. Let your past mistakes go and learn you can be free from the chains that are holding you down.

Hi, the same happened to me and to others; I think it was when the site was updating; no worries! :)
The loading bar displayed and then stopped.
I am aware that XenForo has gone through a recent update, I am a Senior Moderator on another forum run by the same software.
Thank you for understanding anyway. :oldthumbsup:

Especially God's heart.

Some browsers do allow ads to be block or if you become a supporter like me; you don't see any.
Let me have a look for a thread which may help you.

Do you think jesus ever told jokes?
Good question; erm, I'm not sure - being a preacher, Jesus spread God's Word; whether He told jokes - difficult to say.
I can't say that I have ever studied scripture looking for that.
