  • 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

Throughout my life I've believed in God, but just in the sense that there was a God and it was the God of the Bible. But I had made the decision that it would be easier for me to forget about God, and to live my life with light cast to the shadows. In recent months, I had changed my attitude, but I always had a sense of self righteousness. That I would do what was right in my eyes, and that I wouldn't care what God had to say about it.

It wasn't until I shed my pride and self righteousness that I could truly accept Gods Gift of Grace and to move to the path where I could eventually be reborn, and live in Holiness. This past week has been full of "Spiritual" occurrences, and where I began to be reborn.

My whole life I wanted to be the best person I could be, but that was not possible without God. I cast out my ideas of that I was ultimately right, and there was only one right-- God. Once I did that changes I've wanted to make for a long time, fled from sight. Pornography had once been a habitual activity in my life, but I could never rid of it. It was not until I truly allowed God into my life, that sin began to dissipate. I began to change. The amount of blasphemy, and foul language began to dissipate from my tongue. I began to preach to people. I sought not more after sin, and pleasuring myself, but to please God.

I am truly blessed for God entering my life, and I know that no matter what happens. Good or Bad, I shall always have God with me.

Some people may ask me "What if I'm crazy and this whole experience is just in my head?" To that I say, "Well there is not a doubt in my head that God is real, but lets say hypothetically that I was wrong about God. Well then I have nothing to worry about, I lose not one thing from believing in God, I only benefit."

I pray that many more find God, and allow themselves to be saved by God. Thank you to whomever chooses to read this. May you all have a delightful day, life, and eternity.

P.S. The Song "I Saw The Light" by Hank Williams is absolutely Terrific!

Yes, being "born again" is essential and so precious. Note all of John 3; Hebrews 11:6; John 14:6; and 1 Jn. 5:10-12 and see clearly what God is telling us about "born again" faith. It all begins in Jesus the Christ of God. Birth happens suddenly and is final, and one cannot be unborn. Look up always, for God cares always!
