  • 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

Scripture: Job 10:22
Focus: Light is like Darkness in Hell.

Edward and Kevin were fainthful bous in their chuch. Edward was a sophmore in high school with the hopes of becoming a minister. Kevin was a junior who wanted to become a Minister Of Education and Youth. both boys had their sights on Shaw University. Devin was another youth who belonged to the same church as Wdward and Kevin. They began to see a darker side of Devin. He was always getting into trouble. Devin was rebellingat home, missing school, and selling marijuana. He would drive around town playing loud hip-hop and rap music and he was living large.

A few months after his sudden change in life, Devin was beaten badly and had to have surgery. he had become so depressed untilhe wanted to die. He was scared because he knew he was not saved. He even had bad dreams about death as being a dark and dreary place.

Edward, who had been attending the State Congess classes, wa able to tell him about Job's misery and unclear understanding about death. Job believed taht God was his Kinsman-Reedemer. A kinsman redeemer was a relative who would save another relative's life or property.

Kevin instructed Devin how to go toGod in Prayer and accept Jesus Christ as his Personal Savior. As a result of the boy's help, Devin received Christ in his life and recovered completely. Devin began tellin others how Edward and Kevin were like lights in his dark world. He later became alight ot others by telling youth in darkness that Jesus can give light to their lives. :holy:
