  • 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.

Dear gladyys. Yes, we should never run ahead of the Lord, always follow Him.But in the mean-time we could do, what Jesus told us in Matthew, chapter 22, verses 35-40: " Love God with all our hearts, with all our souls, and with all our minds. Also: Love our neighbour as ourselves." A very good way is: to treat all we know and all we meet, as we would love to be treated. God will see our sincere efforts, and God will bless us. Why?? We are following God`s Commandments to love.
Jesus will give us His Love and Joy, and the Holy Spirit will give us His Love, also. Jesus told us to: " Ask and ye will receive," then we share all Love and Joy with all around us. We might stumble and forget, but then we ask God to forgive us, and God will forgive us, as we will forgive others. God will be using us to love and to care, and God will lead us where we can be His hands and feet. We are God`s only representatives in this imperfect world, and people will notice and maybe?? join us.
Yes, let us Wait For The Lord, and be ready whenever God calls us. I say this with love, gladyys. Greetings from Emmy, your sister in Christ.
