Prayer for Involvement on CF

[edrogati]

I've recently come back to CF after about 10 years away and honestly, it hurts spiritually and emotionally to read a lot of the forum posts. To put it in Biblical terms, a lot of straining at gnats and swallowing camels, or fighting over tiny points of theology or politics and, at the same time, accepting huge divergences from Scripture.

I am not perfect. I am often guilty of getting into arguments over tiny points of disagreement and sometimes struggle to not elevate man's understanding of reality over what the Bible says.

I just find it really disturbing how much divisive argument goes on. I'm sorry if this is inappropriate to bring up here.

Maybe an example of your concerns would help us to understand them.

A lot has been happening over the years!

Check out Isaiah 6:8-13 and Daniel 12:10

Arguments over the One True Church and the line of succession from the beginning

Father, this one has been very accurate in their assessment, yet needs to find the better way to respond to their own accurate assessment. May they find the way of peace and contentment, satisfaction and purpose in this area. Amen.

Praying that all goes well with your return.

As a newbie to the forum, I feel the same. I've decided to stay away from denominational squabbles and mainly pray for people who are in need. I don't always post when I pray, but I've been privileged to lift up many prayer requests since I joined....

I also post info on education since that's one of my callings--to expose the darkness in current ed reforms. It's hard not to get into squabbles, but I believe that I'm doing what the Lord wants me to do for now.

I pray that you will have God's wisdom to know what He would have you do concerning CF.
