  • 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 story is somewhat complicated, but yet so somple in GOD's eyes.

Not too long back the preacher of our little church was accused of a crime by a disturbed person (no detail really needed there).  He was arrested, and convicted by a VERY corrupt court system.

Now, at first you may think O MY GOSH!!!!!  Ya thats what we thought too.  But, now we are starting to understand it a little more.  You see ever since he was put in jail he has witnessed to 100's of people and led MANY MANY people to CHRIST.  Not only that but it has opened our eyes to the justice system and something is really beginning to take off on trying to do something aobut it.

So was this something bad or is it a blessing in disguise?  Well I truley belive it is just simply part of GOD's plan to open our eye's to things we sometimes don't think is important.  GOD is doing a lot of work in that little jail and it is reaching farther than just that one.  Its like a cold, its spreading, you hear that, GOD IS SPREADING!!!!

That was the praise part, now for the prayer.  Our preacher has to take medication for his heart among other things and needs our prayers that he stays well so that he can keep on doing GOD's work in there.  We also need to pray that of all the seeds he has planted that each and every one of them bloom.  And of course we need to pray that he returns to us soon, becuase we do miss him :sigh: .  At least I know he is doing great things and that keeps our spirits up :clap: .

 

Thank you for reading this and for all of you that pray, BLESS YOU!!

AMEN!!

This isn't really an update since I have know it for a few weeks, but I figure I should add it here.  What I know anyway.

There is supposed to be a meeting held to try and do somethings about the system here in Oklahoma on I think the 15th of February.  There are some very important people heading up the committee for this.  One of which is Mr. Ashcroft.  They are trying to get thoses judges and prosecuters that are unjust and corrupt out of their positions and free some of the people that have been wronged.

Just pray that this meeting goes well and some things can be done about the corruptness of the system.  Will keep everyone updated.
