  • 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

    Hi everyone. I am having a really difficult time and was hoping for help. I have had a really severe case of OCD my entire life. I recently had knee replacement surgery and about a week later the fears started hitting and I have got severe panic. I have the fear of having caused harm form...

    I've been missing a little while

    Hey everyone. I feel like I don't belong here at the forums sometimes. In 1985 I lost everything. I lost my job. I lost my apartment. My dad had me committed to a mental institution. I was taken from the institution one day to a court room where I lost custody of my only child, a precious...

    I have enough of this.

    Hey. You have no reason to be afraid of being unforgiven and you have no reason to be afraid of hell. I often feel like I am so different from others here but I don't think you are going to get better without medication. The SSRI drugs are the ones that work. The fears are still there but...

    Obsessing over Hebrews 6:4-6 & 10:26-27

    Hey. I don't know what exactly Paul was trying to say in these verses but I do know that Jesus had a parable about someone who owned 100 sheep and one went missing and the owner left the 99 to go and get the one missing back. He already owned them and lost one and went and got it back. In the...

    Fear of the unpardonable sin

    Hey. Bless your heart. If you read John 5 verse 24 you'll find that if you believe you will not be judged. You would have to be judged to have to be forgiven or not forgiven for something. Further, when Jesus mentioned the unforgivable sin, He said that person is in danger of or subject to...

    I may have finally done it, blasphemed the Holy Spirit

    Zachariahjosephturner, please don't let this thing cause you to not believe in God and His Son Jesus. This life and all the miseries that may come with it goes by so fast. The life to come is the one that should matter. You would truly be happy and free in the life to come someday if you...

    Evil spirits and invite by just thinking?

    Jeshu, I believe that OCD is inherited and involves a misfire in a synapse in the brain and is caused by a chemical imbalance, NOT THE DEVIL!

    Evil spirits and invite by just thinking?

    And Letermagon, sometimes people post here who don't understand OCD. Don't be afraid of any of the posts.

    Evil spirits and invite by just thinking?

    Hey. Your thoughts cannot cause what you fear. We all have fears. I'll give you a good example. When people are walking by a cop and his gun is just sticking out to the side, the thought often comes - What if I grabbed his gun? Most people just go on and they think - No, I would never do...

    Ocd about God

    I have fallen so short so many times myself and committed sins I wish I could undo. I'm 61 years old and so many times I'm so scared because I know my time is coming but God loves you so much so that He sent His Son to pay the price for your sins for you. He is love. He cares about you...

    OCD may be an untreated chemical imbalance

    Hey. I'm not at all sure if histamine plays any part in OCD but I have had allergies and asthma since I was a little child. I had to get allergy shots a lot as a child. Many times I get to the point that I have to take an antihistamine and use my asthma inhalor.

    OCD, Scrupulosity, Apathy, depression, intrusive thoughts...

    Something sounds strange to me about your situation. OCD patients feel a lot of fear. It scares me that your situation almost sounds Sociopathic in nature. I'm just not sure how to try to help you. But I hope that your belief in God and His Son Jesus will become so strong that it is...

    OCD Vows

    Let it go dear friend. Let all of those fears go. I've said I was going to do things and I didn't do them. I've heard a preacher say - Don't think we don't say a bad word when we hit our thumb with hammer. You are being entirely too hard on yourself.

    A Christian’s Perspective on OCD

    Often I truly believe that our visit here to earth is like a school field trip to learn lessons that would make us better people in preparation for the next life. I have failed miserably at times but I have learned many lessons and learned them well. I am so hopeful that I can remember them in...
