  • 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.

“Salvation is far from the wicked, For they do not seek Your statutes.” “The sum of Your word is truth, And every one of Your righteous ordinances is everlasting.” (Psalm 119:155,160 NASB1995) Who are the wicked in the eyes of God? They are all who live wickedly, in practice. They are liars...
“Righteous are You, O Lord, And upright are Your judgments. You have commanded Your testimonies in righteousness And exceeding faithfulness. My zeal has consumed me, Because my adversaries have forgotten Your words. Your word is very pure, Therefore Your servant loves it. I am small and...
“I have seen a wicked, violent man Spreading himself like a luxuriant tree in its native soil. Then he passed away, and lo, he was no more; I sought for him, but he could not be found. Mark the blameless man, and behold the upright; For the man of peace will have a posterity. But transgressors...
(the Scriptures below are from the NKJV. The text in brackets is mine] Deuteronomy 30:14,19 Romans 10:8-10 14 But the word is very near you, 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you in your mouth in your mouth and in your heart and in your heart that you may do it [the...
“The wicked plots against the righteous And gnashes at him with his teeth. The Lord laughs at him, For He sees his day is coming. The wicked have drawn the sword and bent their bow To cast down the afflicted and the needy, To slay those who are upright in conduct. Their sword will enter their...

In Revelation 13, two monsters or "beasts" appear, one of "the sea" and the other of "the earth". Eschatologists have proposed explanations for the sea and the earth. Some earlier Adventists proposed that the sea is the UK and the earth is the U.S. because Britain is isles of the sea and has...

By Revelation 12 the sequence of the trumpets seems to have ended in Rev. 11, with "the kingdom of the world" becoming "the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ [Messiah]" followed by celebrating by the victors in the kingdom. Then a little farther on at the end of Rev. 11 there are flashes of...
“The Lord is my portion; I have promised to keep Your words. I sought Your favor with all my heart; Be gracious to me according to Your word. I considered my ways And turned my feet to Your testimonies. I hastened and did not delay To keep Your commandments. The cords of the wicked have...

When asked if she is going to release the Epstein Client list, Bondi says it is sitting on her desk. Once Musk says, that Trump is in the Epstein list/files, then suddenly there is no client list. Which makes one wonder why Republican's voted against releasing it. And then it did...
“Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went...
“While this “declarative” interpretation is an interesting angle, and I appreciate its attempt to resolve a theological puzzle, I find myself not fully convinced. My primary reasons stem from both the practical implications for the Church and, more importantly, the very character of Jesus...
Just Think About This: If your heart lies to you—can you really trust it to lead you to truth? Many people today believe that the power to choose God lies within themselves. That if they just try hard enough, see clearly enough, or feel deeply enough, they can turn from sin and follow Christ...
“But you, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, Descendant of Abraham My friend, You whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, And called from its remotest parts And said to you, ‘You are My servant, I have chosen you and not rejected you. ‘Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not...

Simply put, the ways of God tell us to focus on the appropriate needs (not wants) of others. We were to act in servitude to Him and to each other in need. Man, since the Tree, became self-aware and focuses instead on self. As a result mankind prefers to take rather than give. Man, previously...

I am in the midst of spiritual rebellion. I have resisted the Call of God upon my life (and therein lies the problem - it is not MY life, but the life He - my Creator - has granted me). I struggle with disobedience. I need to learn what it truly means - what it truly FEELS like - to experience...
