  • 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

    i'm starting to have Sexual Desires again how can i keep them away?

    Jags. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Try to remember, TEMPTATION ISN'T SIN! We will never be free from temptation until we arrive in Heaven. However, remember Satan is not all-powerful! In Colossians 2:14-15. It tells us clearly that on the cross, Jesus defeated and disarmed Satan ONCE FOR...

    Masturbation Problem

    Hello brother. I admire you for your honesty and call for help / advice. Let me tell you that you cannot defeat this habit on your own. If we could defeat sin by ourselves the Lord Jesus did not need to die for us. The Bible says, "While we were WITHOUT STRENGTH, Christ died for us. You need to...

    Gone over to the dark side...

    Something to seriously consider: The Marks of the New Birth 1. The Christian life begins with a deep conviction of sin followed by a thorough repentance from sin. This always precedes the assurance of pardon by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit reveals our sin to us in all it's ugliness. Sins...

    The nature of prophecy

    But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. (I Corinthians 14:3) New Testament prophecy is designed for three purposes. 1) Edification. The building up of the people of God. By faithful exegesis of the Word of God the saints are built up and...

    Strange homosexual attraction

    Hi Meserve. God bless you brother. Please don't block your co-worker out. Pray daily for him that you may have the joy of leading him to Christ. Don't share your feelings with him whatsoever. It would be unkind to him and not helpful to you, rather the reverse. Have a read of this. May it be...

    I want to encourage everyone who is struggling with temptation of any kind. There is victory in Jesus! Hear what the Word of God says:- 1. 1 Corinthians 10:13. No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can...

    When we get to heaven, the Bible says, "When we see Jesus we will be like Him". Everyone who has repented of their sins and trusted Christ alone as Saviour and Lord will be there. Everyone else will be in Hell. We shall know and understand as God knows and understands then and we will not lose...

    Offence

    It's important to be well instructed when you become a believer. It's not a popularity profession! Surprisingly for some, becoming a Christian may not solve all your problems, indeed they may increase. Jesus said, "Don't be surprised if men hate you, they hated Me before they hated you". "I...
