• 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.

Practice righteousness !

Dear one,
For we heard:
  • He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? -Micah 6:8
So we should be concerned to do what is right.

For this is what we have heard:
  • By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. -1 John 3:10
So the question is :
Have we practiced righteousness every day?

Have we been led by the Spirit of God to do what is right every day ?

So dear ones,
those who have practiced righteousness — have you considered what they have done every day ?

Dear one,
This is what we have heard:

Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.
Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.”
‭‭I John‬ ‭3:6-7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

So dear one,
Those who practice righteousness are those who abide in Christ every day.

This is also what we have heard:
And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments; this is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, so that you should walk in it. -2 John 1:6
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. -2 John 1:7
Watch yourselves, so that you may not lose what we have worked for, but may win a full reward. -2 John 1:8
Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. -2 John 1:9
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, -2 John 1:10
for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works. -2 John 1:11

So dear let us abide in the teaching of Christ, in this manner, we practice righteousness all the days of our lives.
