• 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 rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

"with gentleness and Reverence" (how we are commanded to act toward those who ask us to make a defense of the Christian faith, and to give them an account for the hope that is in us .. 1 Peter 3:15) :preach:

to revere, is to honour and respect :eek:ldthumbup:

Yeah, but how often do we see that happening here in our debate threads, Brother :scratch: (not saying that I EVER expect a non-Christian to regularly act in such a manner, but as Christians we are called to treat others like we would want to be treated by them, whether or not they're actually treating us in such a manner or not .. Matthew 7:12)

How are we ever supposed to "look" like Christians to our non-Christian friends if we never choose to "act" like the Christians God calls us to be?

And that completes my musings for the day :D

'keep' \ 'locket' \ (pendant) retainer






I guess we should KEEP ON DOING what we believe is right FOR-US
~to keep-on-doing
and LEAVE others, those that have made alternate 'directional' decisions
to make their peace, with our Father

"Am I my brother's keeper ?"
