  • 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

    Something Happened

    Believing in God is NOT crazy. Anyone who tells you that should be put out of your life. Neither is Schizophrenia any form of demon possession. Schizophrenia is an illness of the mind, seeing, hearing, feeling strange things is common with Schizophrenia. Read the Bible and meditate on what you...

    What a week!!

    Hello all, I just recently got out of the Mental Health Unit of a local hospital and I have to say, I am glad to be out and back home :). To be sure though, I went in a week earlier because of violent images in my head about all of my care givers and support people. My therapist, my...

    Is God Within, literally?

    On the question about God being in us, I say this... Yes, we all have a piece of God in us, literally. The Bible states in Genesis 1 that God breathed life into him. God's breath is a part of all of us, he virtually shared his own spirit with us making us in his own image. Man was with God and...

    Creative minds 'mimic schizophrenia'

    I haven't really minded being Schizophrenic either. Of course I only have a mild form of it currently, I am pretty stable, especially while on medication. The diagnosis hasnt changed who or what I am at all, I am still the same old me.

    Has anyone tried Saphris?

    I am taking Saphris now. Its tastes terrible but seems to be working for me. I have no side effects from it that I know of.

    Schizophrenia: A Biblical Affliction

    I am lucky to have a therapist that is a Christian :) and it is to her I do most of my talking. I dont talk much to my Psychiatrist yet except about how the medications are effecting me, good or bad. I think if anyone told me that God and Jesus was a delusional belief I would tell them "so...

    questions

    There is no cure but it can be treated. I suggest seeing a psychiatrist as its what they specialize in, mental disorders. Perhaps seeing a regular doctor is fine too to be sure that the body is sound. The moment you suspect something is wrong would be a good time to start seeing someone.

    Schizo-affective

    remember, Schizo Affective Disorder is an illness of the mind. it is your body that is ill, not your soul. Even that OCD one you mentioned is also an illness. these thoughts are not your fault and God knows that. God knows your heart, your desire to please him. have faith that God can forgive...

    Terrified, Please Help...!

    Yes, God will give you strength, for certain. God gave me strength to fight a demon, he will certainly give you some to fight yours. keep the faith alive in your heart and do not despair, as long as you have just a mustard seed of faith then evil can not win against you.

    Giving God the glory infront of your psychiatrist

    My therapist/counselor (whatever term you like :)) is a Christian too and that helps so much when she tries to explain mind reading to me and such things. Just today we talked about the only person who can hear thoughts and of course we all know who that is :). I am unsure about my current...

    Lust

    I think this is pretty much accurate. God doesnt give us desires and feeling only to tell us to ignore them. acting on them is another thing though, there is a proper time and place and a proper way of acting on those feelings. for instance, Jesus' anger towards the money changers in the temple...

    Do you believe this is acceptable for your family?

    Sexually explicit billboards, no South park, no Nip Tuck, no Eminem, dont know enough to judge, dont want to know enough either, I dislike rap. Boxing, why not? UFC, again, why not?

    God commands the death penalty for those who engage in Homosexual activity

    Why does it matter? let those who wish to live in sin live in sin. Its to their own detriment. They have heard the truth and rejected it. Personally, I will waste no time on those who do that. I leave them to their own methods. so to me, it doesnt matter.
