  • 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.

    I keep falling into sin for some reason

    correct me if I'm wrong. Is it right to say I am only going to defeat this sin if God wills it? And if I can only be given freedom from this sin if God wills it should i then be beating myself up so much when I fall into it?

    I keep falling into sin for some reason

    I dont really know have a good direct response to what you said. I will admit though I'm sure I dont do the best of jobs doing what you said at all even if I pray for them.

    I keep falling into sin for some reason

    late response sorry i know. It just gets tougher as the days go on and so much to the point that i gave in again after battling lustful thoughts last night for a couple hours probably. It's slip ups like these that lead me to thinking of taking some type of medication or something to just kill...

    When you love your sin

    This is a bit of a confession along with just asking for advice. I struggle with lust and it's felt easier as of late to give in to it. Even though I know I'll only feel regret and shame afterwards. But I keep coming back to it because I just love it. It brings me good feelings. I have fantasies...

    I keep falling into sin for some reason

    It's happened for the second time in less than a week now that I've given into lust. I dont know what keeps causing it either. It just seems like lately my mind has been going more towards sexual fantasies lately which eventually leads to me dwelling on them and giving into sin. Like i said idk...

    How do you deal with an overly sensitive brain?

    As long as I can remember since I started my walk with Christ in 2021 I have had a pretty sensitive brain. I have said before to people I wish I could turn my brain off. My issue is my brain will latch onto the most small minuscule things that I'm aware of and magnify them and have me in a...

    Hows everyone doing mentally?

    I'm here to ask how everyone is doing and also ask for advice for my own problems. It seems like no matter what I do a lot of times my brains knee jerk reaction is to think I shouldn't because (insert reason tied to sin or feelings) whether it's listening to music, playing games or doing really...

    Dealing with perfectionism in an imperfect world?

    Do you know how much of a burden it puts on my life to be aware of things that most people don't think about. My brain grapples onto it and makes me anxious about these things due to the potential to sin. I hate it.

    Dealing with perfectionism in an imperfect world?

    See my issue is my brain see's things that probably most people wouldn't even think about because its so minor but my brain sees it and doesn't let me forget it. It makes me aware of the issues and has me in a mindset of if i don't do it the way it should be done im sinning. At it's core thats...

    The letter of the law vs the spirit

    I had a thought earlier today of following the spirit of the law and not the letter. To be honest I do struggle with just following the letter of the law and being unhappy and anxious because of what it causes me to do in life in regards to how to live it. I don't know if it's a good idea but at...
