  • 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

Strange reaction

It seems to be a really strange thing for me in both the online world and in the real world... Why is it that so many women that initally look interesting almost immediately turn out to be a) not be faithful in church and worship, or b) have something about them that just won't work...

Hmmm - I know God's got a point and I constantly work to grow... but hmmmm. I'm starting to get the feeling the two not only don't seem to go together but never will.

Consider yourself blessed when you recognize that fact and keep holding out for the real deal. There are a lot of people who can't or won't see it and end up being very unhappy.

She's out there somewhere, but you have to ditch that defeated attitude. :)
Right on, sister.....Couldn't have said it better myself. And good for you for not changing and lowering your standards. You deserve to be happy. God wants you happy. ;)

Keil,

I think so many people just put up a front, and hide who they truly are. The think I have learned is not to trust anyone until they have really opened up to you. Everyone has struggles and problems they face. When they open up and still you about this, and how they until them, and you know when its' real. Then you can see what you have really got.

As far as not being the Christian they should be... The thought that came to mind is in the scriputure it says that in the later days people will 'fall away' from the chruch. I think so many people pay lip service to God, and there heart is not commited to worshipping him. They treat church as a social club, and not about going to the house of the Lord and worshipping Him in spirit and truth.

Bottom line is you gotta stay away from these people, because I firmly believe that if you allow them close to you, they can affect your relationship with God.
