  • 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.

Gods Power In My Life.

"Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." Jeremiah 33:3

Man, I've had a long journey to where I am now! I won't get into specifics but this is my story of what led to me being saved.

In highschool I made many errors, I was sinful but also selfish, disrespectfull and toxic to my family. I made some bad choices in friends and ended up feeling depressed and insecure and worthless. My "friends" used me and made fun of me and I was spiraling out of control. I believed in god as a kid, but as i got older cared less and less, my parents were never christian. But he was working with me even then, helping me and guiding me. When I developed social anxiety and bi-polar disorder I was sent to a special program run by the catholic schoolboard that really helped me and it's when I first seriously thought of god as a young adult. I still ignored him though, but he did great things for me and over the years I became happier and now have a better life. My girlfriends parents introduced me to god once again and eventually I was saved! Now I can truly appreciate all the great works god has done for me, and though I still struggle with depression now and again I know I will always have someone to look to. :) I used to look on my past with pain and agony but now I look ahead and know that god will always help me. The lord can cure any pain and he always loves you, no matter how foolish you are. I just wanted to share why I think God is great. :D
