  • 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.

Praise God! Tithe and God will return it

I run an online business where I buy stuff and sell it on a paintball forum I frequent. Well for a long time I was not selling anything and not making any money. So one week in church I decide that I should start giving an offering/tithe (I dont have a regular job and im 15 ) and the wk after I sold out of products and cant keep stuff in stock. Praise GOD for helping me with my finances!

Works every time! It is amazing the difference it makes in our life. I have NEVER once tithed and not seen God be faithful. In fact, He's brought us out of messes that seemed hopeless! I have tithed off and on since becoming a Christian, but am determined to stay a faithful tither til the day I leave this world. No more "Well, I'll give if I have it". From now on, it's the first thing coming out of my check, no matter what. It will also really do wonders for your faith! God bless!!!!

I have also found when finances were extremely low, or non-existent, the best thing to do is donate your time or talents to worthy causes. That helps get you going again, just helping people that are worse off than yourself, or actually anyone in need. Talent is also a great way to donate yourself too. Clean out your closets! There may be a lot of things in there you cannot, or will not, use anymore.
