  • 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.

I believe it's important to memorize scriptures so you can speak them out in your life, over your circumstances, and to encourage yourself with the Word. Here is a set of scriptures I would suggest. Each subsequent scripture builds on the one before it. These are from the New Living Translation. I hope this is a blessing to someone...

Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see. (Heb 11:1)

And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him (Heb 11:6)

By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God‘s command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen. (Heb 11:3)

And this is what he says to all humanity, the fear of the Lord is true wisdom; to forsake evil is real understanding (Job 28:28)

Don’t turn you back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. If you prize wisdom, she will make you great. Embrace her, and she will honor you. (Pro 4:6-8)

So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God for he cares about you. (1 Pet 5:6-7)
