  • 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.

People look for them.
For some it's "keeping up with the Joneses" - have you got a nice kitchen, garden, interior decor ? etc.

Nowadays society seems more insular so people look for the likes of Lady Diana, or a really funny guy to emulate.

In The Lord we have different role models, people that showed what God can do, people worth keeping up with .. . who you serve & follow is who you become like!

Do you have one / some in your church ?
What are they like ?
It's gonna rub off on you!

Of course our main role model should be christ Jesus, we're to model our lives after his. But for an earthly one, it would the minister of the congregation I attend. A very spiritual and humorous man, I'll be learning from him till he passes from this plane to go home, and there will be much left that I didnt have time to learn from him.
