• 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.

It’s been a while.

I had an old account I don’t remember, but have returned. I’ll just start with stating where I have been spiritually, since this is a form about Christianity. Basically, I feel like I’ve been growing in my faith a lot more recently than I had for a while. I am active in my church, volunteer and children’s ministry every week with kindergarten and sometimes with disabled kids. I attend to life groups for women, one is large and for general ones and the other is small, and for single ones. I started using this audio Bible app an ago couple years ago and it has gotten me into the word a lot more. I am not trying to brag, I really don’t feel like I’m have anything to brag about in that all the glory goes to God since it’s him working through this.

You can't help but grow when you are committed to Christ. However, and this is just my opinion, for whatever it's worth: I tend to think a lot of people are not committed to him, meaning WAY more than ever b4 in the history of the US. Polls indicate that Christians are not going to church much... or wait, maybe the polls said people in general weren't but anyhow, this is a dangerous trend. Without Christ, we are lost. We begin to trivialize our sins. That's a great way to not only destroy society but end up in Hell.

Please remember that Jesus said FEW find the Narrow Way to Heaven (Mt 7, Lk 13...). Everyone these days seems to think that most people end up in Heaven when Jesus said just the opposite.

God and HIs Heaven are absolutely holy
