  • 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

    Again: Joh 5:28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, Joh 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. There are two...

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    This has been answered on numerous occasions. I am not sure what you are not understanding. [1] (Present) before 1000 years - people (righteous and wicked (humans and devils)) dwell on earth [2] 2nd advent (beginning 1,000 years, the first part of the "Day" of the LORD; John 14:1-3; 1...

    What place is this, "camp of the saints", the "beloved city": Rev 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. Will you say earthly Jerusalem, on Mt. Moriah...

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    I don't watch youtube from people who cannot maintain their position from scripture (ie, you). Explain wherein I have made contradictory statements, be specific. As of this moment it is simply an unfounded assertion. If you cannot do this, please withdraw the accusation.

    More on Chiasm: There is inherently within the very texts of Revelation 12 a very specific structure, a chiastic structure/pattern [1,2,3,3,2,1, or A,B,C,C,B,A, or A,B,C,A,B,C, etc] which cannot be broken [John 10:35 KJB]. The Revelation 12 Texts: Revelation 12:1 KJB - And there appeared a...

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    "Upside down" is a reference to Chiasm. A reversal of order, based upon the structure that the material is written in. For instance: [A1] [B1] [C1] [D1] [D2] [C2] [B2] [A2] The texts of Jude 1:1-25 have a special chiastic structure (an unbreakable (John 10:35) parallelism in and of...

    1Co_2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    Why do you keep asking that? I already answered, "No", on several occasions now, for none are needed to be "produced", for in the resurrection and translation there are no more marriages, no more begetting, Matthew 22:30; Mark 12:25. What text/s do you have in mind that would bring you to such...

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    I quoted the texts, on several occasions now. Isa 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Rom_14:11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to...

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    You got it. That is exactly what they do - to take by force in unrepentant characters, that which had been freely offered them in repentance. It is the confession of truth from an unrepentant heart. Jesus, will have their record before him, and then he will turn from it to look upon them, and...

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    You simply asserted. You did not demonstrate as I have so done. Revelation 21 is in reverse chiastic order. You are reading it upside down or in reverse. I agree, that it is easy for a child of God to understand.

    Why a literal 1,000 years?

    It is to demonstrate their unchanging characters. It is like Judas, for the wicked will acknowledge Jesus Christ as JEHOVAH Immanuel, but will attack anyway. Isa_45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee...

    Ummm, why would anyone need to reproduce? All that is over by then and no longer needed.
