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.

“Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “Uncircumcision” by the so-called “Circumcision,” which is performed in the flesh by human hands— remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to...
Water Baptism vs Spiritual Baptism
Acts 13:24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
(MY NOTE: John the Baptist is sent to preach, the Baptism of Repentance to All the People of ISRAEL. John's mission was to: """Prepare the way for...
“Therefore, prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance, but like the Holy One who called you...
Today I am reading in Hebrews 3-4. And the primary message in both of these chapters is that, as those who testify to having faith in Jesus Christ, which saves us from our sins, and which promises us eternal life with God, we must be careful that we don’t respond to God’s voice speaking to us as...
We have all seen the mess the White House is in with the removal of the East Wing in order to build a big golden ballroom that will be bigger than the rest of the White House.

Trump was asked about the No Kings protest and said:
"I looked at the people. They’re not representative of this country, and I looked at all the brand new signs paid for. I guess it was paid for by Soros and other radical left lunatics," the president said. "It looks like it was worth checking...
“But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous...
I am reading in Ephesians 5:15-20.
In the previous verses we read about all the things that we are to put out of our lives, as followers of Jesus Christ, i.e. anything which God regards as sinful. And we read that anyone who makes a practice of sinning, and not of obedience to God, will have no...

Critical Issues on Trump Policies in South America.

Trump lies so much, I need to be selective for this blog.
The lies about the ballroom are among his biggest. First, he reassured that the East wing would remain intact. Right......
The cost keeps going up. What do the 'donors' expect in return for their money?
Love is a brave thing,
unconditional in sway,^
inflexibly pure.
Warrior-like, love defends
to bring a peace in all things,
takes on hurt, harms not.
We may hesitate,
balk at swift, dark tides.*
We admit and thrive.
Unlovingness flees
when we show mercy by faith,
when dreams of calm wait.**...
“Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart, but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight...
"Not hearing an answer right away, Eva dropped the carefully woven rope to the bottom of the canyon, and then she climbed down along that same way that they had used, for the easiest access. She left the rope right there as she wandered around along the way where they had gathered. Then she...
“The Old Cross and the New” is an essay by A.W. Tozer, first published in 1946 in “The Alliance Witness,” which was the official weekly magazine of the “Christian and Missionary Alliance” (C&MA), a missions focused church denomination of which he was a part. A.W. Tozer served as the magazine’s...
“I waited patiently for the Lord;
And He inclined to me and heard my cry.
He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay,
And He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm.
He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God;
Many will see and fear
And will...

“Do not fret because of evildoers,
Be not envious toward wrongdoers.
For they will wither quickly like the grass
And fade like the green herb.
Trust in the Lord and do good;
Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.
Delight yourself in the Lord;
And He will give you the desires of your...
When we read Revelation 2:4, we should ask, "What does it mean to leave our first love?" Tying Revelation 2:4 to Ephesians 3:14 gives us some clues:
love = bold text
our ongoing reverence and repentant hearts = italicized text
remembrance of the heights to which the love of Christ has taken us...
