  • 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

    TED HAGGARD - Insurance salesman

    I think of restoration as being made whole again in Christ. When you have the peace that transcends all understanding and are confident approaching the throne of grace you have been restored. Nothing whatsoever if done unto the Lord (Col 3:23). Imagine someone who had violently murdered...

    Things We Won't Need In Heaven (Game thread)

    We will have works to do in heaven. God has never been about wasting time. Were you thinking that we will just float forever on clouds playing harps? lol

    Taxes! Please Pray!

    Assuming your previous employer paid you by check your bank can probably give you a report of all the checks you cashed from them. Definitely discuss this with a CPA. Believe it or not, this situation is not uncommon.

    Does God curse people? your input

    It is Gods will that all people come to the knowledge of the truth. How could God curse someone if he wants them to be reconciled to himself through Christ?

    Church growth

    We need people to read the bible and do what it says. A good place to start is thinking the best of every person.

    How do you

    Amen. Then you need to cast your cares on God. Pray about the situation and also pray that the Lord send laborers to those who left the church to restore them. That's our ministry. To reconcile the lost and to restore those in the body who have fallen away. You have an opportunity to be a...

    KJV vs. NIV

    Amen. God didn't make it difficult to be blessed by his word. Read it for yourself and be blessed by the greatest love letters ever written!

    Why is the idea of Christianity so hated?

    John 3:19: This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. That's the primary reason. The other is the well deserved reputation that Christians have for being unloving and judgmental hypocrites.

    KJV vs. NIV

    There are some wonderful verses in the KJV (Acts 3:6 for example), but it's hard to argue that the KJV is easy to read or understand. The meaning of words can change over time. Keep that in mind when reading any old text. I also think quoting KJV text is arrogant (thee's, thou's, etc) give me...

    Practical Prosperity 101 - The rear site [NO DEBATE]

    You don't exactly invite feedback when you start a thread with "NO DEBATE". To me that means you only want people to chime in that agree with you. :doh: I'm all for being a good steward of the blessings the Lord has provided us, but I don't think we should underemphasize the importance of God...

    Doing it right.....

    Well said my brother. I think it's easy to do what we want and just expect God to bless it. Storms will come. If your foundation was built on the rock (God's word) then you will survive.

    Reaping your harvest....

    I make an effort not to keep track of my giving and to be greatful for everything the Lord provides for me. I don't believe in giving with the expectation of getting. I give because I want to be a blessing as Christ has blessed me. The Lord has blessed me beyond measure. And that was all...
