  • 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

Games
From http://www.treeoflifefellowship.com/nlmar04.html

1 Peter 2:21... To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

Playing games is what we do. We've been at it since we were kids. Oh as we got older we would not "say" we were playing games... but we still do. The other day, my wife pointed out to me that God likes us to play games. Actually one game in particular seems to be His favorite. He loves looking down on us and seeing us faithfully engaged in a life long game of follow the leader. Problem is, for too many of us, hide-n-seek is our game of choice.



___________

Thank You Lord for the example of Jesus Christ. Help each of us follow His lead. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
