• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Remember and Be Thankful

Deuteronomy 5:
13
Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
14 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God.
You shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter,
nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox,
nor your donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger
who is within your gates, that your male servant and your
female servant may rest as well as you.
15 And remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt,
and the Lord your God brought you out from there by a mighty hand
and by an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded
you to keep the Sabbath day.

Until one fully realizes the bondage of living in the world, as the world,
they cannot comprehend the life of faith, committing our trust to the Lord
as our ultimate provider. This must be a daily reality. The Sabbath is the
day to contemplate, and Remember, and be Thankful.

Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see,
and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein,
and ye shall find rest for your souls.
But they said, We will not walk therein.

The Law, the schoolmaster, leads to Christ, where
we find the true, eternal and spiritual rest for our souls.

Matthew 11:
28
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest.

29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am
gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.
