• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

Goodbye chaps

I have to come to the terms with the fact that it's being years since I open a Bible outside of church,

That's not a problem .

weeks since I attend church at all

That's not a problem - they are only clubs , anyway - not churches .

and months since I can hardly believe in the resurrection of Jesus.

Well , *that* is a problem . I wish you well .

Do you plan on ever reading the Bible again?
If not, then may your path be straight in righteousness and truth, as we all sorjourn together on this revolving ball in space we call earth....:wave:

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Open the book again and read. Ask God for wisdom.

Peace to you.

Hardly is still something.

I have been gone for some time, so maybe you have already been giving more details. But what is the situation?

I don't see how reading the bible and going to church has anything to do with posting here. There are those who even minister at churches and still have time to post over here at CF.

Unless you need to go on a new spiritual journey in which case good luck :thumbsup:

I just feel my faith is too cold to keep boasting of faith before the world. And I really want to think things over outside of a polemic context.
