CHFWeb is dedicated to the Glory of God. May we all encourage, edify and

integrity of God's Word, and seek to follow these scriptural
principles at all times: Colossians 3:17 ;1 Corinthians 13:4-7; Ephesians
4:29; Ephesians 5:2-4 ; Galatians 5:22-26; 2 Corinthians 1:2-4 .
Please confine all questions and comments concerning the CHFWeb message board,
guidelines, and policies e-mail instead of taking up
space on the message board. Please do not post your questions or
comments about the operation of the message board on the board. Please
e-mail us at forum@chfweb.net
What is not allowed on CHFWeb?
- No obscene or vulgar language.
- No gossip or criticism against other individuals (including spouses!)
or ministries. Discuss issues in light of God's Word, not specific
people.
- No Advertising. No links to your own websites, whether personal or
commercial.
Do not post links to other message boards, e-groups, and other Internet
discussion groups without our approval first. Our purpose is not to try to
gain a monopoly on the homeschool message board population. We know CHFWeb's
Message Board is not going to meet all the needs and desires of everyone,
but it's not considerate for others to use CHFWeb as their advertising
billboard.
- No Solicitation of any type, no matter how "worthy" the cause,
this is not the purpose of the message boards. (This
includes projects such as "Traveling Bears", Post Card swaps, and
collections for charities. It has been our experience that such projects
take up a large amount of message board space and we are also unable to
verify the authenticity of all requests.)
- No Used Curriculum Ads, this includes "Wanted to Buy" Ads EXCEPT
on the Trading Post section according to the specific guidelines there.
- No Copyrighted Material without permission from the author. We don't
encourage the posting of articles on CHFWeb. The message board was
created for discussion, not as a place to paste articles gleaned from
the Web (or anywhere else for that matter).
- No "pro-occult" sites, books, materials, games or activities are
to be recommended or promoted on CHFWeb.
- No "Forwarded E-mails" with cute stories, poems, hoaxes,
warnings, gossip, boycotts, and urban legends on the public boards. Simply
put: if you received something by e-mail, don't post it!
- No links (or offering to email links or resources!) on the Bible Issues
section. Our purpose in providing the Bible Issues section is so
participants can discuss issues with one another in light of God's Word, not
share links.
- No links to Church websites or Denominational websites. No denominational
debates or discussions, CHFWeb is strictly non-denominational --so please
leave the denominational "labels" off here! Discuss issues in
light of God's Word! No Catholic/Protestant debates. We are NOT Catholic and
we do NOT believe many things taught by the Catholic church (see our
statement of faith) , but our focus here is not to debate such matters using
labels, but instead discuss issues in light of God's Word..
- No drug recommendations! CHFWeb's focus is to minister to spiritual
needs and give practical Biblical advice, not *medical* advice. All messages
which either recommend drugs or share drug "testimonies" will be
removed from the board --this is both for your protection and our own. This
is not the purpose of this message board!
Please note: If you have a problem with another CHFWeb participant,
please don't use the message board to blast a public rebuke, instead, go to your
brother or sister privately and attempt to resolve issues in a scriptural
manner.
We encourage those who feel the need for advice about very personal and
intimate topics to email one of the older Christian women participating on the
Titus Two Women's Section instead of posting details openly on the public
board.
Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name
of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him
CHFWeb is composed of Bible-believing Christians from all walks and
backgrounds who are joined together because we love the Lord, are determined
to follow His Word and uphold the integrity of His Word, and allow His Holy
Spirit to reign! We don't promote any denomination nor do we allow
proselytizing or links to sites that do so--this is not our focus or purpose
on the message boards of CHFWeb. Our prayer is that Jesus Christ shines forth
from CHFWeb!
1 John 1:7
"But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light,
we have fellowship one with another,
and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin."
