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.

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes...
“So Jesus said to them again, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief comes only to...
Today is Easter, or as I like to think of it, Resurrection Day. It is the anniversary of the most important day in history, as Christians see it. I personally never liked the Easter bunny stuff and much of the superficial worldly stuff as it is celebrated by most of the US as it distracts...
“Remind them to be subject to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good deed, to malign no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing every consideration for all men. For we also once were foolish ourselves, disobedient, deceived, enslaved to various lusts and pleasures...
Acts 4:24,31 (NKJV)
24 So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: “Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them
31 And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all...
Christians find it hard to separate the world of man from the Kingdom, perhaps because the religion abandoned the Kingdom centuries ago to re-join the world of man. When one talks of a 'body of Christ', one is referring to those of the Kingdom and it's ways, not the ways of mankind. The Kingdom...
“But I have written very boldly to you on some points so as to remind you again, because of the grace that was given me from God, to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, ministering as a priest the gospel of God, so that my offering of the Gentiles may become acceptable, sanctified by...
Here’s a thought for any believer in Christ who may be struggling with how or why to share the love of Christ:
(As spring comes so do God's beautiful sunsets. From Tokyo)
Not about being the best, it is all about the One who is the best-that being the Lord Jesus Christ
First of all, it's ...
The rain persisted like that through the night, much of the time blowing against a side of their home, and so the homes of all the others there, but later falling more directly from above. While they were awake it was never heard to stop.
The next day probably all in the small settlement woke...
PROVERBS 3:7-8 (NKJV, bold mine)
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil.
8 It will be health to your flesh,
And strength to your bones.
LUKE 1:41,44 (NKJV)
41 And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and...
“And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God. For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling, and my message and...
“Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. Be of the same mind toward one another; do not be haughty in mind, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation. Never pay back evil for evil to anyone...

Before reaching the wounds, we must discover our disorders. Acquiring knowledge of our wounds is a process. As we dig within ourselves, before reaching the wounds, we discover layers of disordered tendencies that are affecting our behavior. A disorder is any behavior that is...
When God parted the Red Sea, it was a miracle. It was also a message—a picture of His power to save and the path we must take in response.
In Exodus 14, God delivers His people, the Israelites, from slavery in Egypt. He opens a path through the sea, showing His sovereign power. No one else...

“Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is...

Romans 11:7-16 ESV
“What then? Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened, as it is written,

eyes that would not see
and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.’...
A Study of Romans 11 Pt 1
Romans 11:1-6 ESV
“I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! For I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin. God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how...
