  • 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

These verses really touched me,

Colossians 3:12-14

Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

Psalm 50:23 Whoever offers a sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies Me.


The Lord is waiting for our praises


1 Cor. 13:12 For now we see in a mirror obscurely, but at that time face to face; now I know in part, but at that time I will fully know even as also I was fully known.


Everything will be clear when we go before the Lord on that day. The things that are unclear to us today will be clear to us on that day. On that day we will see the Lord's excellent will in every step of the Spirit's discipline. When we see everything on that day, we will bow our head and praise Him saying, "Lord, You were never wrong."

Let it be the hidden man of the heart,
in that which is not corruptible,
even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit,
which is in the sight of God of great price.

1 Peter 3:4


Not only the meek and quite spirit is the adornment of women,
but also the bible says the man needs to adorn himself in this manner

Hebrews 11:33-34 . . .
By Faith these people overthrew kingdoms,
ruled with Justice, and Received what GOD
had Promised them.
They shut the mouths of lions,
quenched the flames of fire, and
escaped death by the edge of the sword.
Their weakness was turned to Strength.
They became Strong in battle and
put whole armies to flight.

Having Strong Faith in GOD
Makes Us Effective!!!

Isaiah 41:10 . . .
Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.
Do not be dismayed, for I am your GOD.
I will Strengthen you.
I will Help you.
I will uphold you with My Victorious Right Hand.

Matthew 9:36 . . .
HE felt great pity for the crowds that came,
because their problems were so great and
they didn’t know where to go for help.

Mark 6:34 . . .
A vast crowd was there as HE stepped from the boat,
and HE had compassion on them because they were
like sheep without a shepherd.
So HE Taught them many things.

Matthew 11:28-30 . . .
Then JESUS said, “Come to me,
all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens,
and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you. Let me Teach you,
because I am Humble and Gentle, and
you will find Rest for your Souls.”

Gentlesness shows Mercy, Kindness, Humility,
Gentleness, Patience, and Forgiveness toward others.
It also gives Healing and Peace!!

Greetings and may God bless all who read. We are God's children. A family. A commission to share in honoring our Heavenly Father. It is written in Philippians 2:13-15, "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;..." Lets keep praying for one another. God speaks to us through His Word. Amen.

Matthew 13:14-15 . . .
This fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah, which says:
“You will hear my words, but you will not understand;
you will see what I do, but you will not perceive its meaning.
For the hearts of these people are hardened,
and their ears cannot hear, and they have closed their eyes.”

Ephesians 4:19 . . .
They don’t care anymore about right and wrong,
and they have given themselves over to immoral ways.
Their lives are filled with all kinds of impurity and greed.

Sin dulls our Spiritual Sensitivities.
Time away from GOD dulls our Spiritual Sensitivities as well.

Ecclesiastes 3:1, 11 . . .
There is a Time for Everything,
a Season for every activity under Heaven. . . .
GOD has made Everything Beautiful for its own time.
HE has planted Eternity in the Human Heart,
but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of
GOD’s Work from Beginning to End.

2 Peter 3:8 . . .
You must Not Forget, Dear Friends,
that a day is like a thousand years to the LORD,
and a thousand years is like a day.

While GOD and Eternity are Timeless,
GOD Honors Time and our Careful Use of it.

Luke 10:29-37 . . .
The man wanted to justify his actions, so he asked Jesus,
“And who is my neighbor?”
Jesus replied with an illustration: “A Jewish man was traveling on
a trip from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he was attacked by bandits.
They stripped him of his clothes and money, beat him up, and left
him half dead beside the road. . . . A Jewish priest came along . . .
and passed him by. . . . A Temple assistant walked over,
but he also passed by on the other side. . . .
Then a despised Samaritan came along, and when he saw the man,
he felt deep pity. . . . He took care of him. . . .
Now which of these three would you say was a neighbor to the
man who was attacked by bandits?” Jesus asked.

The man replied, “The one who showed him Mercy.”
Then Jesus said, “Yes, now go and do the same.”

Your Neighbor is Anyone who Needs
GOD’s Mercy, Forgiveness, Compassion,
and Friendship.

Luke 5:12-13 . . .
“LORD,” he said, “if you want to, you can make me well again.”
JESUS reached out and touched the man. “I want to,” he said.
“Be healed!”

GOD heals through Miracles!

Mark 2:1-5 . . .
They couldn’t get to JESUS through the crowd,
so they dug through the clay roof above his head
. . . Seeing their faith, JESUS said to the paralyzed
man, “My son, your sins are forgiven.”

GOD Heals Through the Faith of Friends!!!

Acts 22:15 For you will be a witness to Him unto all men of the things which you have seen and heard.

1 John 4:14 And we have beheld and testify that the Father has sent the Son as the Savior of the world.

Are we being a witness to what we have seen and heard? He has sent us out to be His witnesses, when He returns how many will He find being about His business?

Everyone will Hate You because of your Allegiance to Me.
But those who Endure to the End will be Saved.

CHRIST, the Faithful Son, was in Charge of the Entire Household.
And we are GOD’s Household, if we keep up our Courage and
Remain Confident in our Hope in CHRIST.

If we Endure Hardship, we will Reign with HIM.
If we Deny HIM, HE will Deny Us.

Endurance is the Sign that our Faith is for Real,
because it Shows that we have our Eternal
Goals clearly in Mind!!

All the things you posted are excellent, but this one especially spoke to me. I never heard it put this way....God honors Time. What a cool thought! And time management is a place I struggle in, LOL...so I need all the help I can get.:blush:
