• 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.

I agree brinny, praying is important. Sometimes i get into trouble quickly if i don't pray. Giving thank to God is also very important.

Sometimes i think that our minds are renewed not only by reading the Bible, but also by humbling ourselves in prayer and talking to God about our problems, being honest and just talking to Him.

Yes. He ministers to us when we pray, doesn't He?

1 Peter 2:24-25


24 “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
25 For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

6 We were not looking for praise from people, not from you or anyone
else, even though as apostles of Christ we could have asserted our
authority. 7 Instead, we were like young children[a] among you.

Just as a nursing mother cares for her children, 8 so we cared for you.
Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you
not only the gospel of God but our lives as well.

I Thessalonians 2:6-8
