  • 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

Hey there guys... I feel bad no one seems to be praying for my stuff, maybe you are... I feel really lonely right now, you guys help me out so much, whenever folks on here pray for me things get better real quick. I'm very anxious, all these things are supposed to be happening in my life right now, and nothing is happening right. I just have to keep waiting, and then stuff goes wrong again. Please pray for a more dependable future for me, and more dependable companions.

Thanks,

BEN

When you say companions, what is it you really mean? If you are talking about another man in a sexual way then i will in no way pray for a relationship like that. If you truly want Gods guidance then you need to change your lifestyle because what you are doing is an abomination to God. The moderators of this board might edit this post but this message needs to be heard. I will pray for you as a person who is lost, and I pray God helps you. I do not pray for you to have companions for what you do.

I'm so sorry that you feel this way. I will pray that God gives you Direction and his way of doing things. I pray that your heart be open to recieve His word of truth. We as Christians can't get caught up in what we want put what God wants for us. Your pray should be have your way Lord.


God Bless You

It really iritates me why we can't be a little bit more understanding and compassionate to someone who has had at least the courage to say he/she is hurt or troubled.  We are quick to quote scripture or say that we'll pray for them; these things aren't bad but are we really taking the time to try and put ourselves in there shoes and understand what they are going through.

Remny,

I can't be with you in person, but I can be with you in spirit.  Feeling like nobody cares enough to hang in there with you when you are going through a hard time is never a pleasant feeling.  Been there done that!!

I'll pray for you and ask that He makes His presence more obvious to you. I'll ask that he wraps His arms around you and comfort you with His words.

Do you pray that homosexuals find companions? I pray for Remny's well being, I pray for his strength. I also pray that he finds direction in his life. If it irratates you because people won't go to God about something that once again is and abomination to God then brother I say just be irratated. God Bless

Paitence is a virtue, so I'll pray for you that you gain strength in patience. :pray: When frustrations come about when things don't come for you, remember what is written in Ecclesiates, "A time to give birth and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted; A time to kill and a time to heal; A time to tear down and a time to build up." Ecclesiates 3:2-3. We must remember God's run things by His timetable not ours. Stay paitient and stay in the word and God will call you.

Don't forget that YOU need to speak to Jesus when you feel like you need something. Don't simply rely on prayers of others. If you trust Jesus, or at least want to, read His Word (especially the New Testament of the Holy Bible) and He will guide. He does indeed love you and only wants the best for you. It is your choice to follow Him.

Hey there, I pray dilligently for myself and for others. For every prayer I request on here, I respond to at least 3 others. I very much appreciate all of your prayers. Do not doubt that I spend my own time with God though. We were built in much the same design as God. Much as our friends can convince us to have compassion for others, so we can convince God to help others we feel bad for. He knows what we think and what we feel and he cares about those things. If it would bring us pleasure to help someone else, it would bring God pleasure to do good for them, good on your behalf because it makes you happy.

A long while ago, I came out on these forums as someone that is Homosexual. This is not an issue I want to debate, and generally I am a pretty happy person. I'm sorry I ever came out here. I thought you being christians and all, you would not want to point the finger at me so readily. I will just say in my defense that being gay and trying to be straight is just about as effective as being black and trying to be white. I have met many people that have traveled this rought, and living their life as a lie has caused families to disentegrate, children to be left alone, and wives to be left crying as their whole relationship was based on a lie, an effort to of one person to become something that God probably did not intend for them to be. As for abomination, nothing I do is a hateful or a hated thing, which is the meaning of abomination. Though some of your reactions are somewhat hateful.

Things in the bible are awsome, the bible is the light to show one to God's love and will, it is not the path that we follow though, everyone is on their own path. There is great danger in takeing the bible too literally, and more danger in hateing other people, or assuming you know what God wants for others. God may want for one person, the opposite of what he wants for another, in the very bible he has instructed people to murder, however that does not mean we should all go out and kill those we think are bad.

I am happy that you all pray for God's will to be done in my life and pray for guidance of my sole. However, do not short God of his wisdom by assuming you know what he wants and doesn't want for me. Only pray for his hand in my life, and I trust he will do great things for me.

I'm sorry to offend people. I do not mean to upset anyone, again I thank everyone for the time they take to pray for me.

BENJAMIN

Benjamin, there is nothing wrong with being honest. As a matter of fact, honesty is one of the best qualites a person can posses. It is absolutely wrong of any human to judge another. We are all following our own path that we are responsible for and the only thing we should be concerned about is how Jesus feels about our actions, for it is our actions that make us who we are. If you know in your heart that something you do is wrong, stop doing it. If you can't stop, ask Jesus for help. If you are not sure if something is wrong, pray to Jesus to guide you in the right direction and He will. Just make sure that you are willing to accept His answer. Trust Him above anyone, or anything else, follow the path He shows you, for He will NEVER steer you wrong!!!
