  • 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

    Pancakes

    Thanks to Slim Chicken, my kid and I now use chicken as a breakfast meat. Their chicken and waffles meal tastes really good, but the waffles are often soggy. We make pancakes or waffles with chicken at home.

    Are modern songs and choruses any better than older ones?

    I think the music overall is being overly produced for the sake of profits and possibly for fame, popularity. I feel like it is overly dramatic and performed in a way that is more emotional rather than spiritual. I wouldn't be surprised at all if some of it was AI or AI enhanced. The lyrics...

    I had a dream and then few days later, I received a text from a lady stranger

    It could be the women have become more familiar with you and find you to be trustworthy after consistency over time. It really can be a survival issue for women when they snub men they don't know. Also if women notice other women feeling comfortable around a particular man, that signals to...

    I had a dream and then few days later, I received a text from a lady stranger

    If she is a complete Stranger I would want to know how she got your number and if there was no good explanation, I would ignore.

    I had a dream and then few days later, I received a text from a lady stranger

    Dreams are often symbolic and not literal, whether they have a spiritual origin or originate from our own brains. They can also be wishful thinking, subconscious desires, fantasies. As far as communicating or meeting with this woman, I think it's fine to pursue that if you are interested and...

    There's no Scripture that says God picks your mate..

    Romantic love is fleeting, it comes and goes, fizzles out, and can be mood based. Other things like respect, maturity, kindness, shared goals, compatibility genuinely caring about the person you commit to are much more important. These things hold a relationship together when the fun and...

    There's no Scripture that says God picks your mate..

    I believe God can and does sometimes pick a spouse for some people. I also believe if you are seeking God's guidance and peace you can know if a relationship could work out or help pair up with someone who is more compatible than others with similar goals. I love that in the OP it is said that...

    Celibate Thread

    Celibacy is intentionally staying unmarried and abstaining from sex because you choose to do so. It is usually for religious reasons and usually meant to be a lifelong commitment. Abstaining while single but wanting to be in a relationship or open to it isn't the same as a commitment to...

    Celibate Thread

    No, it's not, and you knew that because you pointed it out. Why would any of us doubt or even question that? Why did you feel the need to announce that to all of us?

    How much time per week do you think is enough to dedicating to study the Bible?

    It could depend on what your goals are and which parts of the Bible you are studying. If it is for personal study and growth, I think consistency is just as important, and maybe more important than length of time. One verse of Scripture can be read in under a minute. Five minutes of...

    My older sister has what we believe is Asthma and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

    She can try using a fan and having it blowing only on her. If the air feels dry and stuffy to her in a suffocating way, she can try a humidifier and a fan. They also make fans that use water to cool and moisten the air being blown from the fan. Another option would be a small window unit a/c...

    Attempting to Reset

    After a few years of great anxiety, recurring bouts of depression and spiritual dryness, I am trying to reset my heart and mind. I'm beginning tonight by reading through some of the Scriptures that are listed in the About and Purpose section at the top of the discussions in this forum each day...

    wanting to put on muscle but worried about gaining weight

    Maybe try measuring your body with a measuring tape rather than checking weight? Weight in and of itself isn't a bad thing. Muscle weighs more than fat. It takes a lot of fat to equal the same weight of 5 pounds of muscle. There are healthy and lean athletic people who weigh more than I do...
