  • 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

    Tithing - what law was it under?

    There were benefits to those who obeyed the law in the old testament concerning the tithe. The tithe was of the earth, the Lord provided the tithe... The flood gates of heaven is also called "rain"... God would cause it to rain on the land and bless them with crops, grains and all manner of food...

    Tithing - what law was it under?

    May God bless you and guide you in your journey to know Christ. Amen in doing what you believe the Lord requires of you. We all have our own personal convictions as a child of God. My goal here was just in understanding the tithe in its entirety... And I am convinced that something greater than...

    Tithing - what law was it under?

    I do not agree with you. Can you show me where in Hebrews what you are referring to? God is not some machine that you have to put money into in order to get something In return. What God wants is a cheerful giver, one who gives out of the love of their heart which is something greater then...

    Tithing - what law was it under?

    I agree! And they don't talk about what the spoils of war were!! It could have been clothes, food, jewelry, etc. We know he obtained some slaves out of the battle... Plus, Abraham gave that willingly from the heart. Abraham wasn't under any law but had FAITH!! He gave out of faith the same way...

    Tithing - what law was it under?

    I'm glad other people notice that! If they are going to quote Malachi 3 for tithing, they also need to quote Malachi 1 & 2 for offering unworthy sacrificial offerings because ( under the law) they have robbed Him in that way too! But you will never hear it because it doesn't benefit them...

    The effectual working of his power

    I have to say that I have never heard or seen the grace of God and how it works through us explained in this way!!! This is awesome teaching and I must say I understand much better!

    if you could get someone to read/live just one scripture, which one?

    Obeying God and following the way of Christ does mean we love Him, it wouldn't be love otherwise... 1 John 5: 2 By this we know that we love the children of God: whenever we love God and obey his commandments. 3 For this is the love of God: that we keep his commandments. And his commandments do...

    I'm not a big fan of Perry either but I find some of his topics and discussions interesting and enlightening at times. I will check out the lady you mentioned though, I wish I had some real life experiences of the Holy Spirit at churches that I use to go to with those types of miracles... I have...

    Who is Melchizedek?

    I believe he was an incarnation of Christ as interpreted from Hebrews 7, but I want to get somebody else's opinion..: Melchizedek the Priest 1 Now this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, met Abraham as he was returning from defeating the kings and blessed him. 2 To him...

    Thank you all!!! I realize that signs don't make me a Christian but i yearn to experience the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I will continue to petition God and pray and work on myself and meditate in His Word until I experience His Spirit. I have been diligent in seeking God through His Word and...

    Hello all! I was listening to an evangelist named Perry Stone and he was talking about the Holy Spirit. In the discussion he had with others on his show he pointed out Mark 16: 17 These signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in...

    Tithing - what law was it under?

    I totally agree with GaryArnold and have come across those same passages of scripture that show that we are not bound by the mosaic law or ordinances that required tithing... I want to reiterate that I am not against people who tithe in the sense of giving a ministry ten percent of there...
