• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

The program anomaly, man's will...

The news people are too busy to attend church and so are mistaken.
The future is in Gods hands.

Amos 4:7
“I also withheld the rain from you when there were yet three months to the harvest; I would send rain on one city, and send no rain on another city; one field would have rain, and the field on which it did not rain would wither;

Luke 21:11
There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences. And there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.

Mark 4:39
And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
I don't watch the news...

Are you worried or scared?
Not really, I more too scared of my own shadow most of the time, to be too scared of end times too much, Lol...

But that's another story or matter for another time...

God Bless!

Yeah, you might want to PM those actually or put them in a Blog, I've gotten warnings before about some kind of rules involving testimony based on personal visions of experiences.....
God Bless!

Personal prophesy is not allowed. If believed, it can be destructive.

1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.

Psalm 34:4
I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.
That has not proven to have been historically accurate or true though...

And could you maybe cut down your list a bit, and give me just a few that clearly say man's will has not ever been a problem for God or God's will maybe...?

Cause I'm checking them out and don't see it, but I do know of scripture that talks about God's will contending with man's will, and man's will with God's though, and about God pleaing with us to choose His will over our own, etc...

And, how historically in the Bible, man's will being a major problem for God a lot of the time, etc...

God Bless!

So your neighbors are predicting the end of man?
Try getting all new neighbors.

The bible is, too. In Revelations.

(But now I must stop, as I fear I have hijacked this thread. [Sorry OP!])

Do you believe that in the end times we will have many visions and prophesies? I do. The bible says as much. :)
Yes I do... Bible says so... But "interpretation" of course is always the problem with them, etc...

Neighbors...? What...?

Most of the time, it's just me and God, and I only have a very few friends or people I talk to or deal with in my life, and those not very often at that, and we don't ever talk about those kinds of things either, so...

It only takes one looking at the world around them to know something is up and something is wrong, or is increasingly becoming very wrong, etc...

That has not proven to have been historically accurate or true though...

Part of God's past and experience, is what we call "The future".

Revelation 22:13
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”

Revelation 1:8
“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

Isaiah 41:4
Who has performed and done this, calling the generations from the beginning? I, the Lord, the first, and with the last; I am he.

Genesis 1:1
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

Revelation 21:6
And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.

Revelation 1:17
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, “Fear not, I am the first and the last,

Isaiah 48:12
“Listen to me, O Jacob, and Israel, whom I called! I am he; I am the first, and I am the last.

Revelation 22:12
“Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay everyone for what he has done. (Here God is saying that in the future....
he is going to repay everyone, for what He already knows
"
what they have done" in their past, our future.)

@SkyWriting also...

I'm just saying that, for some reason, God chooses to destroy it from time to time, or set it back a ways, sometimes a long, long ways, from time to time, etc...

And I've presented a theory as to why I think that is, or could be, but maybe you guys have another take maybe...?

I'm very open to them if you guys do...?

God Bless!

What is it that He is saying is done or finished at the end of Revelation...?

The creation of the new world. It's not an unforeseen, unplanned event in mans control.

I don't watch TV either...

Except for older movies every once in a great while, stuff I'm already familiar with, most of the time I listen to music a lot...
