  • 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

    why should we take God seriously?

    I am highly opposed to this statement as it is NOT biblical. John says that if we confess our sins that God who is faithful and just will forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. God may not protect us from the consequences of our sin (a different concept than judgement)...

    Does God have a name for the unnamed or those who wish they were?

    Does God have a name for every child 'aborted'? Also, we all know that there some very cruel/sadistic parents out there who give their children some very strange / degrading names (e.g. Hazel Nutt, Stan Still, Sex Fruit, etc.). Does God have a name for every person, or would some unfortunate...

    How do you know if you're one of the elect or not?

    Respectfully, I have a bit of trouble believing it [re the "much error" and the apparent lack of admitence by a lot of Christians on the issue of love and obeidence to Christ - discussed in 1 John 5:1-2]. I've never had said experiences before - maybe I just don't hang around too many...

    How do you know if you're one of the elect or not?

    That's a'ight. It seemed pretty clear from a basic reading so I'm not sure why there would be confusion or error. The things John wrote of, being the Epistle in general; the more important parts being major tests which could include 1 John 4:13; 5:1,2. I should probably clarify: my initial...

    Dave Roberson...tongues.

    The most obvious question to ask is if this praying in tongues (so-called) is so important that it can open up the "power" of the Holy Spirit, then why doesn't the Bible teach us how to do it? Why doesn't it even talk about it?? The ONLY examples of people talking in tongues were speaking in...

    How do you know if you're one of the elect or not?

    If you've genuinely surrendered your life to Jesus as Lord and Saviour and asked for His forgiveness for your sins. John provides assurance on our saved state: "I am writing this to you so that you may know that you have eternal life - you that believe in the Son of God" (1 John 5:13, GNB). You...
