• 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.

Don't we all.. though it seems you understand the crux of the gospel message as pertaining to how God wishes for us to live. Another question if you would be so kind to indulge. By what means does God seek for use to meet these requirements, that is, are we expected to do these things by our own strength love and compassion? Do we already have what it is necessary to do what is required?

Sorry for the extreme late reply

we are only human and can only do so much and in our walk with Christ, we can go so far and we must rely on the Lord when the going gets tough.

Live like Christ lived. Bear good fruit from the holy spirit. Without the holy spirit its impossible-human effort alone can't do this.

Take one day at a time and get some inspirational friends that love God by their actions. Read the bible and pray daily. Get involved in a serious church. Its a life long lifestyle and you will know God more and more.
