  • 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

    Unsure if obedience is out of Love for Jesus or the act itself.

    I'm in the exact situation. It's hard to understand why God doesn't leteveryone who wants to have a love for Him actually have a love for Him. How many time do we hear people complaining about not being able to love God, or at least not as much as they wish they did ? Why God doesn't grant that...

    Apathy after leaving God

    My bad. I realised it very recently, last week actually. I remember one day, 12 years ago, after a few weeks of thinking I should give my life to God, I was in my car, I was listening to a Christian song. And suddenly, it was as if the Holy Spirit touched my heart. I realised how bad a sinner I...

    Apathy after leaving God

    His Spirit has never dwelled in me to begin with. I was a false converted, I'm pretty sure. I tasted the light, had some experience, but never truly had the saving faith. This verse is for his children. I never was.

    Apathy after leaving God

    What do you mean ? I don't practice my sins anymore. I just said that I can't genuinely hate them with my heart. I need His Spirtit for that. I hate them with my mind, I know they are evil. But there's a part of my heart that still love them, and I need His Spirit to change that. I can't change...

    Apathy after leaving God

    Thank you all for your replies. I'm doing a little bit better but I don't know... I don't feel like I am free. I've quit all my sins and all my lust but I feel like I don't have any help. I do want to follow Jesus, I want to give him my life but I don't really feel his Spirit filling me with new...

    Apathy after leaving God

    No I don't want to feel anything. All I want is to be able to live my life normally, with God. Being able to function, to have some leisures, and of course serving God. But the problem is that everything now seems so pointless to me. It makes me feel empty, depressed, etc. One thing that is...

    Apathy after leaving God

    I hope you are right. I am afraid that I lived deliberately in sins for too long and that he left me to my own, and as a result I am now looking for him because of my distress and the pain I feel for his absence. But I can't find him on my own. It's him that shows himself to us, and he doesn't...

    Apathy after leaving God

    I don't know if I have a true illness, or it's the Holy Spirit that left me or something.

    Apathy after leaving God

    By being of fire, I mean having a strong hunger for God, his word, wanting to be alike Jesus more and more and to please him, attending a church with joy, etc. Now I don't find that motivation within me anymore. I want him, I pray and I read the word. But most of the time when I pray I feel like...

    Apathy after leaving God

    Hello all. I converted 12 years ago. Those years walking with the light of the Lord were the most beautiful of my life. But unfortunately, for some reasons I fell back in sins, for 5 years. I made the mistake of taking God for granted, thinking "I will comeback, but not right away". I knew I had...

    Hello everyone

    My dreams are so bad. Almost all my dreams are either nightmares or me sinning, which is a nightmare too. And I wake up disgussed. And yeah since I've been seeking the Lord back me too I realised how bad my thoughts and my heart were, and I asked for forgiveness for that either. During those...

    Hello everyone

    It's been 6 months since I've tried to go back to the Lord and to restore my relationship with him. In those 6 months I asked for forgiveness many times. I think I am sincere, and did wheep a few times. I think I was truly sorry for dishonorring God. But I don't feel forgiven and restored. After...

    Hello everyone

    I am pretty sure you cannot pose your salvation. There are many verses in the Bible that confirm it.I also believe God can forsake someone, but in that case it wouldn't be a saved person. Those talked about in Hebrew 6. 4-6 are people who weren't saved, even if they had some experience with the...

    Hello everyone

    For sure, that's what I try to do. I try to turn to God completely but still have some hard struggles with some sexual thoughts. I think I know what you mean when you say you haven't been granted repentance. Like you ask for forgiveness but you feel like your heart still love your sins, even if...
