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.

Matthew 7:15-20 ESV
“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...

You won't be alone

Isaiah 26:16-19 ESV
“O Lord, in distress they sought you;
they poured out a whispered prayer
when your discipline was upon them.
Like a pregnant woman
who writhes and cries out in her pangs
when she is near to giving birth,
so were we because of you, O Lord;
we were...
Fatigue.
“When you are tired, think of My fatigue.
Bossis, Gabrielle. He and I (p. 44).Pauline Books and Media. Kindle Edition
Most people are acquainted with fatigue. I think for most it comes and goes, and we can feel fatigued for more than one reason. I have always had some trouble with...
It was getting dimmer as the group of fugitives went on yet further beyond that creek, and obstacles like small shrubs separated widely from each other, and some of the larger of small rocks, which they all watched for, became much less frequent as they went on, before it was much darker. There...
Colossians 1:1-6 ESV
“Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
“To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae:
“Grace to you and peace from God our Father.
“We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, since...
1 Timothy 1:18-20 ESV
“This charge I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that by them you may wage the good warfare, holding faith and a good conscience. By rejecting this, some have made shipwreck of their faith, among whom are...
1 Timothy 1:12-17 ESV
“I thank him who has given me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful, appointing me to his service, though formerly I was a blasphemer, persecutor, and insolent opponent. But I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief, and the grace...
Ephesians 6:23-24 ESV
“Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with love incorruptible.”
1. What kind of peace is this?
2. What kind of love is this?
3. What kind of faith is this...
I thought I would share my testimony with you all. I have given a very similar testimony to a number of others.
Of course, I am ever in the pursuit of truth and do not believe I will ever arrive in this life, but this is what this pursuit of truth is really based on.
Buckle up!
I was on what...
1 Peter 1:3-5 ESV
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for...
I grew up in a Christian home but lost my faith. Recently I’ve come back to Jesus because I realized just how miserable and empty life was without him. But I’m realizing that there’s part of me that still loves sin. I don’t hate it anymore like I did as a child. It really saddens me, I feel like...
Ephesians 5:7-14 ESV
“Therefore do not become partners with them; for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. Take no...
Proverbs 29:25 ESV
“The fear of man lays a snare,
but whoever trusts in the Lord is safe.”
This is a short passage of Scripture and yet it is filled with biblical truth. And the best way to understand what this is teaching is if we look at what these individual words mean:
Words Defined

Matthew 5:11-12 ESV
“Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
