Fair use rationale for Image:Icf logo.jpg[edit]

Image:Icf logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

Question regarding ICF Pastor over stepping his boundaries?[edit]

My / our ICF pastor suggest that my fiance doesn't marry me until she reaches some kind of undetermined goal with God which has contributed to the destruction of a beautiful once in a lifetime relationship for me and my lovebof my life soulmate. I'm wondering is it standard for all International Christian Fellowship Pastors to be so strict that we are NOT allowed to pursue each other in a loving, respectful relationship that is trying to get married to do it God's way and then keeps raising the bar. Wenare in our 50s and she is a cancer survivor and the men in my family don't live past 57 and I am 58 in 2 days . So we do not want to spend the next 20 years getting right in the eyes of our pastor before we can spend their life together. Our pastor is very strict with my fiance and suggest she does not be engaged with me and absolutely not make love. I can't even marry my woman that I love. Even though the same pastors children are having babies out of wedlock at the age of 17 and sleeping around cheating on her boyfriend. I believe pastor's time would be better spent working on his own children than a couple 50 year old people that are older than he is.

I Court the love of my life until she openly puts the ring on her finger. Then my fiance had a meeting with our pastor and He suggests she spends more time with Jesus and not be getting engaged and wearing a ring and she will come out of the meeting with Pastor without the ring on and I have to start over. This has happened four times in 2 years and I am losing the love of my life because of this denomination and when I speak to Catholic priests, Lutheran pastors and Baptist pastors they all think it's absurd and ridiculous so I am concerned. Because I am madly in love with my fiance and she loves me back but we can't be together because she is trying to follow the rules of the Apostolic denomination according to her Pastor. Which he says, This is What God Says" and from what I understand Pastor should not be telling us what God says because does he know this for sure and yes he does say God speaks to him so it is definitely hard for me to win the heart of my true love if this pastor won't let the by far the most beautiful woman in his congregation ever get married to anybody. So I'm asking you. Is that standard for ICF Pastors to do because I love my ex fiance and I don't think it's normal for a pastor to stop people from being engaged just because they are a reborn christians. Please help us.  I live in Bolingbrook, Illinois. 2603:300A:F3C:5000:D5CD:89D:9A59:3953 (talk) 15:31, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
