• 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's on your mind?

Burn the money; hunt for the treasure.


1 Corinthians 3:12-13
"Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is."

Matthew 6:21
”For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."

Fortunately, the Spirit blesses me by reminding me where the real goods are at.

Decided to watch Cop Land. Never heard of it but it has Robert De Niro in it and that's good enough for me.

John 15:13
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."

I have prayed fervently that Abba Yah show me my friends and how to lay my life down for them.

I believe He has graciously answered this and what I do here, I do in faith.

I have been, and will continue to be transparent. I will display all that I am to the best of my ability, with Him as my Capacity.

Behold the lovely and, yes, the ugly...

Take whatever you need. My only hope is that some good will come out of it, for you.


Amen.

Some folks fancy the idea of being a Child of Yah and this is a very nice aspiration.

But, then they begin to set bounds to the very Love they seek to emulate.

What does He Say?

"Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect."

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."

If we aren't to display Agape, by His Power and Grace, I don't know what else to do.


I understand that some will not get down and dirty...some will not risk the discomfort and pain.

Maybe they aren't called to this type of ministry. I don't know which of His offspring are not...


He is the Door and perhaps we are called to be His doormats, that others may enter in.


Perhaps not.


We are going to lay our lives down for somebody. I guess the question is whether or not it is our choice as to who this will be.


Shalom.

Mostly I do paintings, but I have and will do many other things too. I wish I had much more time in my hands.

That’s neat. I’ve always had an affinity for painting. I’m glad you were able to grab new tools. Enjoy!

It's amazing how quickly your wallet empties when you're Christmas shopping, especially when gathering presents for family members of the female persuasion.

I guess being broke for Christmas isn't so bad.

Hey. How are you doing?
Oh well you see, it's a very interesting story. I've been working ten hour days, and not had much time to check in on the forums lately... Okay, maybe that wasn't so interesting
