  • 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

    Is clubbing ok?

    I guess it depends alot on your own values. For me, I do club occasionally and as long as I know my limits and adhere to my principles, I think it's ok.

    How have you reconciled your faith with depression experiance?

    Joy - something or someone that provides pleasure; a source of happiness. Eversince I was diagnosed with depression, I've been through periods of self-rejection, withdrawal and even isolation from Christ cos everybody tells me that with Christ, happiness and joy will soon follow. I thought of...

    Want tooo DIE!!

    You're taking the first step to recovery. That's good but sometimes, counselling is not enough. Go see a doctor if need be. I did and was placed on medication for 6 months but I weaned myself off it as I was afraid I'll get too overly-dependent on it. Let a professional diagnose your case in a...

    What is Considered Losing Your Virginity in the Bible?

    You will increase your chances of getting cervical cancer as well. I've been at the stage you're at once but unfortunately, I had no one to turn to so I committed the deed. One of the major setbacks I suffered as a result, was thinning relationship with Him as I'm unable to forgive myself for...

    Unbearable pain.

    Y'know. You ain't alone. I feel that loneliness every single day even though I've parents who care and siblings who love me. I'll manage to find the little details in life to be displeased with. I'll cry myself silly. Take medication to put myself to sleep. Do things that hurt myself and just...

    Depression

    Unfortunately, my Christian friends don't realise it at times. They think it's just an act to gain sympathy. So tired of putting a smile when all I want is to just cry. Really tired.

    depression

    I decided to take myself off my anti-depressants and now, I'm kinda regretting it. I find myself praying for death every single night. Crying uncontrollably. It's such a vicious cycle. Drowned myself in the book "Prozac Nation". There seem to be no way out...

    Drowning in this sea of sin.

    I'm gonna take the first step by returning back to church. I'm not gonna lie by saying I'm better cos I'm not. Every other day, some things will happen to throw me off-balance. And well, like how Missy Baby puts it, I'm just gonna hang on. Thanks guys. :)

    Drowning in this sea of sin.

    Will I ever be able to let go of this 'control' that I've so beautifully carved out for my own kind? I'm so afraid of getting hurt, being inflicted with pain. I just so afraid and to me, the world is dark and sinister. I'm getting very cynical and very jaded about things around me. I feel...

    Would You Rather........

    Frog. Dogs are just too cute to be eaten. Anyway, frog meat is considered a tonic in my country. :) WYR hide the sin or confess it when it will bring about shame and possible condemnation?

    Would you ever..........

    Yes. ;) Would you ever choose to leave church so that another party can stay on in it, without the awkwardness of seeing you around?

    Drowning in this sea of sin.

    Thanks Curtis. Thanks Lynne. I know He's out there. I heard Him speak to me today but a barrier of fear that things might repeat or that I might face condemnation is still present. The shame lingers on. Blessed-one, I'm considering that possibility. I don't know. In a way, I'm really...

    Why do you choose your signature?

    I chose the lyrics of this song cos I wanna remind myself that He died for me. He was crucified for my sin and He was resurrected to give me eternal life. :)
