• 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.

What do you think..?

I don't think there's enough information to judge the situation.

Why was the person in jail? How many times? How long? You have to proceed with caution, I would think.

Has his life changed? Is he a dedicated Christian with a heart for Jesus? If so, forgiveness would be in order.

A lot depends on the details of the situation.

I agree it depends on the situation. The how what when and wheres. I personally would expect total honesty. Which means the person whom I am with or will be with would have let me know from the beginning about that.

Hey Everyone...
I will like to know if there is anyone he re who can date an EX-Con,how would you react if you eventually found out that someone you have decided to give your love to is an Ex-Con.
What was his crime? The reason I ask, is that I work in a prison. I would proceed with caution if his crime is against a child and is sexual in nature. Statistics show that most child molestors cannot be rehabilitated.

Why did he wait to tell you? This is something that probably should have been revealed at the beginning of the courting period.

Has he turned His life over to the Lord? Is he actively seeking God?

You can find information on the internet about his record. You will be able to find out what he was convicted of. Public records hold more truth than what he may have told you.

Be careful,
Kim

Let us see,Ex Con hasnt been arrested before because he was smart while in the game and he knew how to pull the right strings at the right time.
He was a Scammer,who has duped and scammed many people of various wealth and at various times.He was not arrested but had been under arrest by the Holy Spirit whereby,his guilt conscience has failed to leave the door of his heart.
He now admits to his betrothed his past crimimal records and how he had lived his life on the fast lane and willing to make full reimbustment to all he may have scammed.
He plegdes his love for God now.
What do you think about this...is that the end of Mr ex-Con or he could still change his mind?What should Bethrothed DO?
Advice needed please.

Betrothed should proceed with caution. Engagement is one thing - but unless Betrothed sees actual evidence over a good long span of time that Mr. Ex-Con really has changed and holds God in his heart, she should not marry him.

He's a scammer by admission. He did not tell her about his crimes up front. She needs to see first hand - again, over a good period of time - that he has changed.

He needs to be 100% an open book to her. Nothing can be hidden, nothing can be secret, he need to utilize full disclosure with her and be completely open and honest about every single thing in his life, if he wants to prove himself to her. If he can't do that, she should walk away.

This is, of course, just my opinion.
