  • 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

It is wrong, if you ask me. Also, if the divorce was for any other reason than adultery or total abandonment by a nonbelieving spouse, then that person is still married in God's sight.
If it was for one of those valid reasons, then you should wait until you are married lawfully to the person in question before beginning any sort of "physical relationship."

>>I just called off this relationship because I think its wrong.

It's a good thing you called it off, because sinners always take a chance they will die in their sin and be eternaly cut off from God.

1 Cor. 6:9-10 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, [10] nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

I use to play that game. I would get into sexual sin, and then after I had my pleasure I would run back to God and ask for forgiveness. God is not dumb, He does take you to the wood shed, and He does make sure that you know that the sin was not worth the price you had to pay. Thanks, JohnR7

Really, I got involved with a women once who had been seperated from her husband for three years. Still God told me that I was messing with another mans wife and that I had to repent or I would be on my own. That would mean whatever problem I ran into, I would be on my own to solve it, I would not get any help from God.

Now, I knew I was going to need God's help. I knew I could not make it on my own apart from Him. The last thing I wanted was to be in a situation that I would cry out to God for help and have Him turn a deaf ear to my plea. So I knew no matter what it was going to cost me, I HAD to repent and get myself right with God.

Marriage with a approved person can be wonderful, but it can also be very difficult. The last thing we would want is to be in a marriage relationship with someone that we would not be able to get help from God, when there were problems. Thanks, JohnR7
