• 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 would you ask God for?

For a double cheeseburger, a chocolate shake, and a side of cheese tots.













But if I wasn't hungry I guess I'd ask Him to give me the evangelical gift to spread His Word effectively and peacefully. This I guess would also mean the gift of knowing perfect truth/theology...so I dont teach the wrong thing.

Do you think that is possible, for us to have perfection of character? I assume you mean here and now, but wouldn't that make us equal to God?

"With man it is impossible; but with God all things are possible." Matt. 19:26; Phil. 4:13

And I don't believe that this would make us equal to God. In fact, even Jesus said that we should be perfect even as our Father in heaven is perfect. Matt. 5:48

I realize there are these scriptures but why would God make us perfect? Even Adam and Eve were not perfect.
