  • 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.

This thread goes too fast and I can't possibly read every post anymore. Just skim it now ! I didn't even know I was on the SECOND THREAD!
Here's a suggestion. You can't change the name.You would have to start a new thread for that but people may be looking for THIS name. What I do when I get to a second thread is I go back to the FIRST one FIRST post, COPY/PASTE it on the First post of this SECOND thread. (if I want it to be the same. - OR I revise it a bit or completely if you want it to be different now.)

I was praying this afternoon before I opened my Bible a habit that I am trying to get into. Anyway I asked God please show me what you want me to read and then I just opened the Bible. I was amazed at what I was reading! It was Habakkuk and at first it was depressing I was reading this man's plea to God to aid him and help him and stop all the violence and all the pain. But I kept reading. I read the pleas and I read God's response but it was the very last thing that I read that spoke to my heart God's promise and Habakkuk's conviction that God will be there for him through the most trying of times....

Habakkuk 3:17-19:

17 Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
and there are no grapes on the vines;
even though the olive crop fails,
and the fields lie empty and barren;
even though the flocks die in the fields,
and the cattle barns are empty,
18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord!
I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!
19 The Sovereign Lord is my strength!
He makes me as surefooted as a deer,
able to tread upon the heights.

Yes, this thread moves along like an express train these days. It's amazing! I was careful to put instructions on the first page of this "second run through" soon as it started *smile*, cos it's also bugged me in the past when you get no info. - but need it! The INDEX is still on the OP, for now anyway, with a reference back to it from the first page here. Thanks a bunch for your thoughtfulness in mentioning this, J4Jesus!




AWWW thanks ! That was sweet!

You're very welcome! Love and hugs!!

Oh, wow Jo, God doesn't just love you as you are - He ADORES you!!! You may find that hard to believe/accept. But it's true. I mean none of us deserve that He adores us, and thinks we are just WONDERFUL!!!

But you CAN believe this! It's true. Know what? It's true even if you have trouble believing it. How about THAT! Because when a thing is true... then it's TRUE!!!

We say, 'But I'm not worthy.' Or we THINK this anyway. Of course that's quite correct. BUT... that is NOT how He sees us. He sees us as TOTALLY worthy! Mind-blowing, hey!

"Lord, we are SO grateful that you see us as beautiful, and that you adore Jo. Just as she is!! Wow, that you do that is just so amazing! Thankyou for your great love for us. Please reveal to Jo how You see her - so she can start to see herself as a-okay too. Cos she is! You are so wonderful and we love you so much!!"

And so do both of us, Jo!

- Bondman and Mrs Bondman


EDIT: You said, "i just cant understand sometimes how God can love me and other people!" But do we NEED to understand it? No, because this is basically impossible! Just gotta accept it! Don't try to figure it out, analyse it, query how it could be, or understand it, etc. Just accept it!!!

He loves you - He just DOES!

This reminds me of the story of the 2 people who entred the temple and one was very pleased with himself and the other was humble and addmitted he was weak?
i forgot the passage but tells the same thing :it's when we addmit our weakness that God will help us and give us His sprit but if we think we are good without it God wont oblige us and we continue to lie on ourselves.​
