• 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.

You use and abuse,
And you tell tall tales.
You promise to change,
But to no avail.

When you’re asked to change,
Then you raise your claws.
You rage and refuse
To give truth applause.

Then, you seem to know
Of what you did wrong.
You cry and confess,
Promise change, now on.

You seem that you work
On your attitude.
You seem to be kind,
And show gratitude.

But, suddenly you
Are back at the start,
With no evidence,
Of change of the heart.

You twist and you turn
All you said you knew,
To your advantage;
Disregard the truth.

The tables now turned,
You’ve the upper hand,
You’ve conquered your foe,
So you comprehend.

You put her in place.
You’re the victim, sure.
It’s her fault that you’re
the mess that you are.

But, if truth be told,
You are still deceived,
Believing the lies
That your pride do feed.

You keep repeating
All the same defense,
Proclaiming ign’rance,
And you don’t relent.

You don’t own up to
The reality,
For you are living
In a fantasy.

If you want vict’ry
Over all your sins,
Then humble yourself,
And to God, give in.

Let him have control
Over mind and soul.
His grace will cleanse you
And will make you whole.
