  • 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

    Are Oneness pentecostals headed for hell? (No debate)

    Oneness pentecostals believe there is one God and that Jesus is the manifestation of God though wrapped in the flesh. He was fully God and yet full man. The oneness movement believes that the holy spirit or the holy ghost (same thing) is God's spirit dwellling in the heart of those who love...

    Church Names

    My church is also New Life church although this is a new name for us. We we the Country Church for 40 years before the switch. But I like the new name as it reminds me of what the Holy spirit does in us. It changes us and gives us a new life. Dorcus

    Favorite Hymns

    A have a couple of favorites. I love When the Roll is Called up Yonder, Marching to Zion, and When we all get to Heaven. Lately Marching to Zion is the one I catch myself singing all the time. Hmmm, wonder if I could be homesick?

    Whats the diffrence?

    Hi Bro. Ginder, I am also apostolic. My sisters where raised apostolic but now attend a chrismatic church. The doctrine is very similiar but their church's view of being seperate from the world is different. They still believe in water baptism with the indwelling of the holy ghost evidenced...

    God: Triune or Unipersonal?

    How do we get beyond Deut 6:4? Did the Hebrew children not believe in one god? Did God not say in Exodus 20:2 I am the lord thy god, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt,... It doesn't say We are the lord it says I am. Jesus said unto them, verily verily I say unto you, Before...

    Bless the name of the lord! He is such a loving and kind god! I rejoice with you over your son's healing. We had a miracle of our own in church. My cousin is pregnant at age 40. Here tests indicated that her unborn baby had down symdrome. We prayed as a church and praise god further...

    No Genocide of American Indians in US

    I think calling Columbus a terrorist is to strong. Cortez was far more cruel to the natives. Besides we should look at history as a learning opportunity. What can we learn today from what happened to the Native American population in the past? How can we help the Natives thrive in todays...

    France takes lead role on Lebanon

    I think the only reason France is worried about arab objections is fear of rioting in their streets again. Fox News reported that 20% of the French population is now muslim. I would take everything France does and says with a grain of salt. Please don't be offended by this but I am concerned...

    Who does Biblical literalism serve?

    I'm a bible literalist and I don't think anyone really knows how old the world is. The bible even tells us that a day to god is not like a day to us. The world might be 6000 years old or it might be a 1000000 years old. Does it really matter how old it is? I'm more interested in were I'm...

    Please Help - I Don't Know If I'll Ever Be Forgiven

    You did not commit the unforgiveable sin. According to my kjv study bible blaspheming the holy ghost is when a person who was once christian leaves the faith and become another faith. The examples given in my study bible was when a christian left the faith and became pagan or a judaic. To do...

    Why is the Bible more important than Jesus Christ?

    In the beginning was the Word and the word was with god, and the word was god. John 1:1. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Mt 24:35. And Jesus answered him saying,it is written, that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word of god. luke 4:4and...

    Israel/Lebanon

    All I can say is if some one fired rockets into my country and kidnapped our soilders I would be the first one to grab a gun and go to war. I believe in the golden rule but I also believe we are allowed to protect ourselfs. No where in the bible does it say that we cannot try to survive. Many...
