• 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 Watchman

And dark clouds gather over the horizon
Like burial shrouds with shadows rising
Yet the sunflower turns facing the sun
As to the power of the Holy One.
Who even though cloaked in unknowing
Whispers follow me in the winds blowing

this is beautiful, I love the line, "the sunflower turns facing the sun, (Son) as to the power of the Holy One."

thanks:thumbsup:

A call to all Watchmen and Watchwomen across the globe.

The Day of the Lord is drawing near. The world full or debauchery and corruption. Moral values are at and all time low, God cannot be found in our society. Paganism and Luciferianism are embraced by celebrities and the political elite. Our society is dependent on political rulers, many have been domesticated.

The world is crumbling under the weight of immense orchestrated debt. Wars and rumors of war, earthquakes, plague, famine and slavery are pervade our lives.

God, Jesus and the prophets spoke of these times.

It is our duty as Christians to spread the Gospel of Christ and warn others of the chaos at hand. I know I have not been living up to my duty.

Ezekiel 33 comes to mind.
33:2 "When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him a watchman, and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn he people, then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not take warning and the sword comes and takes his life, his blood will be on his own head.
33:6 But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes the life of one of them, that man will be taken away because of his sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for his blood.


I encourage everyone to spread the Word more and more. Time is short.


Thank you for the encouragement. Blessings

The Watcher.

We are all of us ripples in a pond
of living life and human bonds
Fingerprints of God everywhere
dusted off through our prayer

Somewhere a baby is now born
And a death has others mourn
Someone falls in love for the first time
And a lonely man bides his time

Soldiers avoid all the slings and arrows
A young child marvels at some sparrows
Life is such a symphony of diversity
God is the only unity to occur to me

All we touch, every goodbye and hello
Resounds through time as an echo
Nothing is forgotten though dead
And hairs are counted on our head.
