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.

Romans 12:1-2 ESV
“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may...
Romans 8:18,26-30 ESV
“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us… Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with...
Romans 8:1-8 ESV
“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the...
Nothing further happened, until the ones who would be up for the watch after that were up. Those who had watched before and seen the huge beetle approaching had to forget about possibility of other insects approaching, to then get any sleep that they still could for that night. Everyone was in...
Romans 2:12-13,17-24 ESV
“For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified.”
“But if you...
Romans is written to believers (see Rom 1:7)
Rom 8:1 Therefore there is now no condemnation [no guilty verdict, no punishment] for those who are in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior].
Rom 4:8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

Searching, searching everywhere
High and low, without a care
Wandering hither, to and fro
Looking for what? What to know?
Time is wasting, that do tell
Heads are swimming, pride doth swell
Nothing finished, not complete
Flesh is winning, not defeat
What’s the purpose? Do you know?
What, for...
The Apostle Paul was writing to those in Rome “who are loved by God and called to be saints.” He had just written warnings to his readers concerning the wrath of God being revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth...
Life before light,

Romans 10:
1 Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God for Israel is for their salvation.
2 For I testify about them that they have a certain enthusiasm for God, but not in accordance with [correct and vital] knowledge [about Him and His purposes].
3 For not knowing about...
For some time now, and from different sources, I have been hearing the saying, “God will meet you where you are.” But is that biblical? I don’t believe it is. Now, did Jesus come to the earth to us? Yes, he did. But did he meet us where we are, or did he require that we meet him where he is...
Romans 1:14-17 ESV
“I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish. So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew...
Romans 1:1,8-12 ESV
“Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God.”
“First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of...
The entire period of 7000 years of human history is revealed in the Apocalypse of Weeks. Was this actually written by Enoch? Is it historically accurate? What does it predict about our future? In Part 1, the first 4 Weeks are discussed in detail. In Part 2, the final 4 weeks are discussed...
From beginning to end in the Bible God tells us to put His will ahead of our own. For instance, would self harm or harming others be our own will or His? Man was placed in this world outside the Garden to understand the repercussions of putting our will ahead of His (as Eve and Adam had done)...
Proverbs 22:3,14,17-19 ESV
3 The prudent sees danger and hides himself,
but the simple go on and suffer for it.
14 The mouth of forbidden women is a deep pit;
he with whom the Lord is angry will fall into it.
17 Incline your ear, and hear the words of the wise,
and apply your heart...
The struggle implicit in our faith walk, and prayer life
One of the prisoners that I am writing to, brought up some issues he is having with his faith in God and prayer. I do not know why he is in prison, and usually, I do not look that up unless I feel the need to. I have done it twice...
Isaiah 55:6-9 ESV
“Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call upon him while he is near;
let the wicked forsake his way,
and the unrighteous man his thoughts;
let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him,
and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
For my...
So you say you go to church
Fellowship you do not search
Walking with Christ not your thing
Offerings to Christ not bring
Live your life the way you want
Though religion you do flaunt
Follow idols, that’s your gig
True commitments, not so big
Selfishness it rules your life
Sinful practices...
