• 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.

This is just a wip, have been thinking of making a sig banner and this made itself from my graphics app ;) Actually a bit larger than it would be, I scaled it down but just using a larger version here. Don’t think I’ll actually use this one, but thought I’d post it here, anyway.

Hmmm... maybe I'll make something more upbeat, instead.
Oh well, making the scene was fun anyway, though the bright forum colors make it hard to see.

You shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now…you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you…And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. (Acts 1:5, 8; 2:4)


When the book of Acts addresses Holy Spirit's empowerment for ministry, three different terms are used to describe the same reality. When Jesus promised this power, He used the term "baptized with." "You shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now." When He indicated that this power would result in a worldwide witness, the term "come upon you" was used". You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you." Then, when these promises of the Spirit were fulfilled, the term employed was "filled with." "And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit."

I urge you to read the rest at http://www.blueletterbible.org/daybyday/03/0305.html

Have a blessed day!

21!!! Thanks for the stroll down memory lane. Were cartoons better then or am I just nostalgic? ;)
There was an innocence about them that is lost in the stuff that is on today I think.

There is a huge rush to get kids grown up and into the world in a lot of the cartoons that are on Saturday mornings now.

"Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?"
(1 Corinthians 3:16)




That was the verse shared in the Bible study link Bustedflat posted a few posts back. Awesome study Bustedflat, thanks for sharing it! It was a great way to start the day in Jesus :thumbsup:

So true... and just one more reason we don't have broadcast or cable TV. I wonder if any of the kids growing up today will someday say " I sure wish I would have had a chance to REALLY be a kid" :confused:

This video made me weep huge tears.

Six years ago this woman found a sick, malnourished lion cub in the jungle. She took the cub home and fed him and brought him up until he was too big to keep anymore. Then she made arrangements with a zoo in Columbia to take the lion. Here's a video of what happened when she went to visit him in the zoo for the first time:
