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.

More building continued that day, for more living space for all who were in this group starting their new community, while Solima and Jippera and the younger ones worked on gathering water and tending what the community had growing for all their food and everything. There were almost fifty...
Discussing Theology, and Everything Else
Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that “We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs up while love builds up.
~1 Corinthians 8:1
I love theology.
Why?
Because I love God and theology is another tool God can...
“So have no fear of them, for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. What I tell you in the dark, say in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him...
“And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a...
“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for...
"So heavenly minded you're no earthly good". The phrase sounds wise. Yet, it is not.
Consider Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV):
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
To be directed by the...

Christ’s Free Servant, Sue J Love
“See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand. It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh who would force you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep...
Do we respect God’s Heaven? We cannot say “Yes” if we flippantly refer to the opposite place, to where those who do not love Him till the end of their lives are consigned for eternity.
The latest fad of uttering “Hell” at a whim, most notably by politicians that U.S. conservatives—even...
The apostles of Christ Jesus, our Lord, all testified of Jesus, that he was the Christ who was to come, and who had come. John, particularly, spoke of Jesus of having been with God from the beginning, and that he was God incarnate (God in the flesh among us), who was fully God and fully human...
The heart, first and foremost, is directly linked to the instincts of the body, regardless of species. This heart looks out for number one as a means of survival, common to all species. The human heart however, is a hybrid using the body as a vehicle for the spirit of God. This is where the...
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree...
Another chapter. The timing seemed appropriate.

Jecharon said, "It does mean that the creatures that are such as the Big Hairy one are smart enough to interact with others of there kind and cooperate for working as big groups. They do not do so here, but it seems they would do so for having many structures for their dwellings together beyond...
“Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I may be proud that...
“For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident...
Although we at some point come to understand the wisdom of God is greater than our own and we align ourselves with Him, being half tamed/half feral, we still seek our own wisdom at times. It is human nature and our life is a struggle to overcome the self serving instincts of our bodily vehicle...
