• 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.

  • 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.

The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

Reflection
Our Prayer: We thank You, O God, for the pleasure You take in humbling the proud and exalting those of low degree. Keep us from pride. Let us not be as the wicked, who conduct themselves insolently towards You and scornfully towards all mankind. Let us not be as those who lift up themselves in pride and folly! Rather make us further into Your holy image day by day as we trust upon Your sanctifying Spirit!

When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained;
What is man that You take thought of him,
And the son of man that You care for him?
-- Psalm 8:3, 4

Code:
Vincent van Gogh was a missionary in 
a coal-mining village in Belgium before 
finally becoming a painter at age 27. 
I often wonder how van Gogh chose 
painting over writing as his primary 
devotion. After all, he had little money 
for art supplies and his village was 
slate-gray and sooty. His first paintings, 
such as [I]The Potato Eaters[/I], seem made 
of charcoal and tar.

Yet in his earliest letters to Theo, his 
brother, van Gogh speaks with a 
vibrancy that rivals anything captured 
in his latter, luminous paintings from 
the south of France. His voice as a 
writer, philosopher and art critic–widely 
printed today–seems so learned and assured.

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue. (2 Peter 1:2-3)...
