  • 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.

LORD,
Be with these people, deliver them safely from the hands of these gunmen back into the arms of their families. Comfort the families of those killed and give them strength to persevere. Let no more innocent lives be lost. Open a door for the gunmen (& victims) to hear the Gospel and touch their hearts with it. Bring them unto the Cross of JESUS and wash them in HIS Blood. This we ask also for any of the victims that do not know you, LORD. Let thy peace and reassurance be upon the victims and families that You are with them as the struggle to deal with this ordeal. Let them praise and honor you FATHER.

In JESUS we pray

God, please forgive Russians and Russia their sins. Lord, in Russia, just like other countries people need God and often they fail to live up to your standards, but please dear Jesus forgive them and don't let any kids die in that Russian school.

Dear Jesus, please please please, it will be so horrible for those parents if their kids die, and how scary it must be for their kids. You know and feel how they suffer, you can do anything. Yeshua, our savior, please please please, dear God, save them. Let it happen according to your will. In the name of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, amen.
