  • 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.

    A Christian Nation

    the israelites had an opportunity at proclaiming a government based on the Lords directives. Through kingdom reigns under David and Solomon. And other God-fearing kings of the old-testament. Even Nebucanezzer had a reign which was God-driven. and the babylonian government was scripturally the...

    Oprah's new religion

    i think Oprah has something against Christ. She is very defensive in this segment. Something must have happened to her either in the church or personal struggles. Her opposition of Christ only makes the lines more clearer between light and darkness. its definitely the spirit of anti-christ in...

    Awaken From Your Slumber Christian Soldiers

    this is the sort of nonsense that gives our Lord grief in the earth. everyone knows the crusades where a political agenda propigated by Roman Catholic Church. Christ has cleansed us from our sins when we receive Him by a confession of faith. The type of cleanseing your referring to wouldnt be...

    Whoever listens to Christian rock or anything rock is going to hell!

    todays youth often yield to a consensus view of what is culturally acceptable rather than the wisdom of seasoned christian eldership. but its seems the way of things. we would rather learn the hard way , than seek the wisdom of God's counsel in the Holy Scriptures. Points of view from...

    Whoever listens to Christian rock or anything rock is going to hell!

    Warren's Invocation Invokes Judaism, Islam

    Rick Warren had an idea about what he felt was missing in most christians lives today. The "purpose driven" life material is basically another devotional. It has made an impact in the daily lives of many christians. But, I do not feel the celebrity that has been attached to brother Rick's...

    Is the global ID card the mark of the beast?

    ~ thinking on your post. We get even more evidence of the slow boil on the agenda that is Satan. There may be speculation , like "billwald's" post. I guess maybe an attempt at humor. But, setting aside cynisism and conjecture. The fact is : " like the days of Noah. So will be the coming of...

    the church becoming "cold". entering bible prophecy???

    Thank you, also; for your reply here on my post. This is important subject matter , to say the least. We as followers of Christ have to have our ears , ready to hear and a heart to percieve in these times. Jesus gives us a major heads-up on the hour of His return. A clue by telling us that...

    If the point of the post was to point out the parallels between Hitlers ideology and our growing global new age conscience- ness? I would have to agree.

    Secular Music

    A continued debate over the issue of whether secular music has a place in the life of a born again believer. I'm afraid would prove arguementitive. I only wanted to address through the context of the Word of God. And, state that once we are followers of Christ that a change of heart takes place...

    Secular Music

    Theres nothing wrong w/ secular music if? your an unbeliever. I know the we are instructed in the New Testament to "renew" our mind by the reading of the Word of God. Also, we are to be conformed to the image of Christ. I find it would be very difficult for a Holy Spirit filled believer who...

    the church becoming "cold". entering bible prophecy???

    I'm glad you see the value in this post. Its a very important subject because your right we all have a part in the Kingdom of Christ. If? your a believer. So we need pastoral gifts to engage the "individual" within the body of Christ. Or at least have its attention on the passing on of the...
