  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

A Christian's only prerequisites are to put the will of God ahead of the will of man and to love all as self. So anyone wishing to run for office may do so based on those merits, but it is unlikely they will achieve anything in this world man has made in our own selfish image. Letting political...
1 Peter 2:13-16 NASB “Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether to a king as the one in authority, or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right. For such is the will of God, that by doing right you silence...

Evil, aka sin, is simply according to God, our putting our will ahead of God's will, the same as the rebellious elohim and Eve and Adam did. That is selfishness, in other words focusing on self. As a result we have self interest, self justification, self serving ways, self righteousness, being...
“As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, ‘Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?’ And Jesus answered them, ‘See that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, “I am the...
“Let brotherly love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body. Let marriage be held in honor among...

Originally written on Saturday, October 8, 2016, 5:16 a.m. – The Lord Jesus, once again, put the song “For Our Nation” in my mind. This song has been strong in my mind for weeks now. I believe it is because the forces of evil are strong in this world now, and that our world and our individual...

Alverten froze in alarm. At least he did not drop the water or spill any, he realized soon after. He did not think he could outrun this creature, if he tried. But the Big Hairy was in repose sitting there, watching, seemingly with interest, and still not moving from that place. Then the Big...
“This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with...
“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” (Galatians 2:20 ESV) When we believe in Jesus Christ with God-given faith, which is not of...
Speaking the Truth The Lord is preparing us for persecution. In this time of darkness, those who speak the truth will be persecuted and misunderstood. Are we ready? That’s why we have to crucify ourselves, because, as long as we are attached to our reputations, to being affirmed and liked...
“My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.” (James 5:19-20 ESV) We read in the Scriptures that we who are part of the...
“Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be...
The Precious Blood (God with us) You are My beloved spouse of My Most Precious Blood. It is My Blood that refreshes the soul and brings forth new life in the Spirit. My little one, My Blood, poured out for mankind, has been trampled on. It has not been received as My gift of Myself to humanity...
Isaiah 62:1-3 ESV “For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not be quiet, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning torch. The nations shall see your righteousness, and all the kings your glory, and you shall be...
Tolerating that Woman Jezebel “And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write: ‘The words of the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and whose feet are like burnished bronze. “’I know your works, your love and faith and service and patient endurance, and that your latter works...
