  • 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

    Now what side of the waters do we want to start building the bridge from?

    Chaz- If you were in Messianic Judaism for 10 years and still didn't "get it" ... and didn't see what the origins were... wow, well, nothing now would change your mind, that's for sure! I have been blessed to have gone to a real live Messianic Jewish Synagogue... instead of moving from...

    Now what side of the waters do we want to start building the bridge from?

    I'm not offended. I disagree with your theology, but all that will work itself out either before we die or after, no doubt. I know Jews who would disagree with your perspective. So, the "we are Jews" thing doesn't mean too much. So many people disagree even within a cultural/ religious...

    Now what side of the waters do we want to start building the bridge from?

    Unfortunately, the perspective of Christianmomof3 and S-T and others make the role of the Messianic Jews very difficult. When the Christian is standing on one side and the Jew is standing on the other... both so convinced their Religion is the right one... both rejecting the definition and...

    Should Everyone Observe The Sabbath?

    Right now, should everyone? Um, probably not. When Messiah comes, yes, definitely. (I believe it's a requirement, is it not?) :D ... those ladies should have kept quite and encouraged their men!

    What are your favorite parts of the Liturgy?

    Great explanation! I didn't really have a good idea of liturgy until I became Messianic. Now... I couldn't go back to a non-liturgical form... it's just too awesome!
