• 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.

I don't see how I will be able to enjoy Heaven.

Certainly a valid concern. I would think a good church would be invaluable. Over the years he will develop relationships there, especially with people that are more understanding or are just more compatible. Autistic people can be difficult at times and it takes patience and not everyone has that patience. Thankfully you have lots of time for this preparation. If he is quite headstrong it can make things very difficult because when they are being scammed or lead astray they may not step back to get perspective and just steamroll ahead. Autism is challenging!
Thankfully he’s not difficult. But he knows he can’t read people well and that causes him anxiety.

I cannot stand the thought of knowing one day I will die, and he will be on earth for about 40 more years without my protection. How will I be able to enjoy Heaven knowing my son is living without my guidance and protection? I live everyday knowing that this day will come, and it horrifies me. Any words of advice would be greatly appreciated.

Well in heaven you won't give it another thought. In fact you will never have that thought. Why you ask?
Because your son will be right there with you in heaven. God arranges it so that the instant you die you are at the appearing of Christ and so also are your loved ones.
