  • 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

    Explanation of Deut. 22:28-29?

    Well I don't know who John Gill is or what his exposition was but I guess people just interpret the bible differently. So be it. While you're at it, how would you interpret this scripture: Deutoronomy 25:11-12 (NKJV) "If two men fight together, and the wife of one draws near to rescue her...

    Explanation of Deut. 22:28-29?

    Oh, I was under the impression that the phrase "he siezes her" meant that he captured her or forced her. I guess some people have a different definition of the word sieze. Would anybody happen to have the original hebrew text (or whatever language it was originally written in) for this verse?
