• 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.

  • 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

Couple of situations:
1- While visiting a church, a person was recognized by the pastor to give a prophetic word. The first sentence was - no need to test this word because what's spoken is truth. The pastor was an acquitance.

2- The guy arrived an hour late to repair the church's AC I just knew he had been with someone and was very proud of what he had done.

Besides praying, what should I have done if anything?

We are told to test everything.
Blessings.

Have you talked with other church members about what you percieved? Or the pastor directly? Usually discernment is for prayer then listen to what the Spirit directs.
