  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Praying for your son, NIrelandGillian, for healing from post shingles neuralgia, and from the pain. Praying for strength and free from the disease and any pain. Praying for mp's husband Peter, after the chemo treatment and radiation treatment. Praying for his healing and strength. Continuing to pray for Bro. Tom for healing, the chemo treatments, and for strength.

Thank you for your prayers, faithinlilfe. That diagnosis I gave was incorrect. My son actually has sciatic nerve pain and is now on medication for it. He was receiving physiotherapy and had been given some exercises to do but any further appointments have had to be cancelled and he has been put back on the waiting list.

Praying for everyone's protection during these difficult and challenging times. Psalm 91

This is the Psalm 91 that @NIrelandGillian referred to:

"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation."

A beautiful Psalm :)

I'd appreciate prayer for Marius, whom we've prayed for before. He is a Christian, but the lockdown means that he and his family won't be able to go to Church. I don't know what arrangements they have, but would you please pray for them that they continue to grow in the Lord. English is their second language, so they may not be able to read the Bible. Please would you also pray for their income as they won't be able to work in the lockdown. Thank you. :)

Praying for Marius and his family, that they would continue to receive teaching and fellowship. M's leg is still painful, but maybe not as bad. At the moment he's not very happy with the coronavirus situation, which has meant extra hours at work for him - that's difficult for someone with autism.

Praying for Marius and his family, for Christian teaching and fellowship during the coronavirus. There are good Christian online Bible teachings; hoping they will find ones they like. And also listen to some of the online church services. Praying for their income during this time. Praying for M's leg, that he will have healing of any pain. Praying that his work situation improves, and he does not need to work too many extra hours.

Thank you for your prayers for Marius, mp. :)

I haven't been on GE much this week, as it has been very hectic, but I've prayed for the prayer requests.

Dave, a neighbour of mine, will be 40 this week and I'm giving him a book about Christianity. He knows I'm a Christian, and I've prayed for him occasionally, but he hasn't yet shown much personal interest in it. It's more a matter of me giving him what I want him to have rather than what he might like, which I feel a bit bad about in some ways. However he likes reading non-fiction and the book is coming from an intellectual angle which I think would suit him. Please would you pray that it touches his life and that he comes to know the Lord. Many thanks. :)
