• 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.

I know that is Christian theology. My problem is I have doubts about this. I often have thoughts believing that after death we cease to exist. Those thoughts scare me.
We definitely continue to exist! I promise you

That’s great but it’s not the case for me. I struggle nearly every minute.

Keep fighting, GFA. I promise you that you can find relief from these fears. I've dealt with them, too. Anxiety manifests in many ways, and fixations on "what if" scenarios are common in people with clinical anxiety. Please keep trying to reach out and find support <3

I suffer from Thanatophobia which is a constant and extreme fear of death. I am always anxious and fearful of dying. This started about six years ago when I had a heart attack. Please pray for me. Thanks and God bless.

I will pray for you but resolving the fear and moving on to a better emotional place will help.
I AM FEARFUL OF: a constant and extreme fear of death.
WHY DO I HAVE THE FEAR: ????
