  • 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.

Patience IS Power!

Press on in Patience

"...be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and
patience inherit the promises."

-- (Hebrews 6:12)

You've been walking by faith. You've been believing God to meet your
need. But what do you do when the results seem slow in coming and you
are tempted to give up?

Be patient!

There is not much said about patience these days. But, when it comes to
receiving from God, it is just as important as faith.

It will make the difference between success and failure for you.

Patience undergirds and sustains faith until the result is manifested.
After you have meditated on the promises of God and have them in your
spirit, patience will encourage you to hold steady. Patience is power.
It has the courage to refuse the lie of Satan that says the Word is not
working for you. It knows that God's Word has never failed. Patience
will not draw back in fear but will press forward in faith until you
have the answer.

When the results of your faith seem slow in coming, don't give up!
Continue to put the Word first, with patience, and you will surely
receive the promise of God! :bow:
