• 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.

wouldn't it be great .........

wouldn't it be fantastic if you could be everything , every label you could say ...."yes , that's me " (nothing immoral in mind , just different perspectives)

It would mean you would be welcome everywhere , you would have some input on every subject and labels would be fun instead of divisive........

Imagine it .........just what labels would you like to try on for a while ?

Well, I'm a catholic, orthodox, latter-day saint. I'm a witness for Jehovah. I have spiritual gifts, which makes me charismatic. Hey, I even submit to God, which makes me a muslim.
I don't believe it............someone responded to my post ......here!!

It was a little test to see how clicky we all are, to see how we hang onto our labels and our "camps"............sometimes you have to consider things from a different angle.

Thanks for responding friend! :thumbsup:

1 Corinthians 9:

19Though I am free and belong to no man, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. 20To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. 21To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God's law but am under Christ's law), so as to win those not having the law. 22To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some. 23I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

I don't think that means taking on every label though ;)

you had the same scripture in mind as me :D

what labels are we going to have in heaven ?

Did God call us Christians or was it a term of abuse ............like PURITAN! :scratch:

Labels may help to clarify but they often divide us :mad:
