  • 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

    "on that very day"

    Genesis 15:13 KJV (13) And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; Scripture does not contradict so there is something to solve...

    I know most focus on the ladder... but

    It is a significant place for sure... 'the place' is 'the place' of Genesis 22:3,9,14... the place that Abraham offered Isaac. Genesis 28:16-17 KJV (16) And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not. (17) And he was afraid, and said, How...

    What does it mean to be double-minded?

    I'm so glad you brought that point out... yes, God does not like 'mixing'... never has... you know that was the problem all the way back to the beginning... The Tree of the Knowledge of Good AND Evil... it was a mixture... Syncretism. Golden Calf. Yes, we are to be single-minded with Christ.

    When is it a sin?

    It was said here, "The entire Old Testament is just one big story to show how the written law does not work for man." There lies the problem... one will never see clearly with this belief... I've not seen the biblical definition of sin mentioned so far in this discussion so let me add it... 1...

    Discussion To Build A House

    Yes, Yeshua is the living Word... he is the Torah with flesh on it. As John tells us, John 1:1 ESV (1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ... as this passage unfolds John leaves no doubt of whom he is speaking, John 1:14 ESV (14) And the Word...

    Discussion To Build A House

    You may consider: 1 Corinthians 10:1-4 ESV (1) For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, (2) and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, (3) and all ate the same spiritual food, (4) and all...

    Mosaic Law Did Not Enter The Promised Land

    The force you were subjected to was the consequence of breaking it... death. Yeshua paid the penalty for the curse of death... the consequence for breaking the law... God is just and a penalty must be paid. Jesus/Yeshua paid that penalty for us... the penalty. That doesn't mean we are free...

    Discussion The Day of The Lord

    Here is a good start: 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 ESV (1) Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers, (2) not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the...

    Mosaic Law Did Not Enter The Promised Land

    So much confusion is eliminated when it is understood that the law (Torah) never saved anyone and was never intended to... Salvation has always been by grace through faith... as Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD... he was saved yet through faith had to build a boat. The children of...
