• 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've been getting off track, I have been neglecting God, viewing porn, and neglecting all other things. How do I start off a relationship with God again, how do I ask for forgiveness, and what do I do? Sorry if this is vague, I can't really think of anything else to say at the moment.

hello! please do not worry about being vague, i completely understand and your message was clear. it is me who should apologize because this reply comes so so so late! i hope you are still on the site. i just joined today.

our generation is a very lost one. i was once immersed in the pursuit of stimulation, instant gratification and sexual immorality. but Jesus has already paid the price for these sins with his once-for-all death on the cross. he has already accounted for them, if you will accept his sacrifice on your behalf.

1. first, you must recognize your sin, see it for what it truly is. the Scripture and Jesus' convicting words often illuminate where we've fallen short and glorified perversion instead of our Creator.

2. mourn your sins and how they have stolen your joy and contentment in the Lord. "blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."

3. forsake your sins and place your trust in Christ, that He will pay the debt. know that you cannot please God to make amends, but luckily Jesus, who was righteous when you could never be, has paid the price. have confidence that on the Last Day, He will stand in your place.

4. this confidence and recognition leads to a renewed life.
