  • 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

    Question for Jehovah's witnesses

    For me, God is an intelligent being that has no limits in whatever respect you consider Him. He has no beginning nor end, He lives outside time and place and he cannot be grasped fully by the limited human mind and imagination. As for the creation, I like to use the following words: "God spent...

    Question for Jehovah's witnesses

    I do not believe in the Trinity as introduced in Christianity after Nicea. That explains why my understanding of the Bible is absolutely different and strange for you. I find more sense in the Biblical texts and prophecies when leaving the idea of Trinity out.

    Question for Jehovah's witnesses

    OK, but both being created and being begotten implies having some beginning.

    Question for Jehovah's witnesses

    If Jesus is "the first-born of all creation" (prototokos pases ktiseon) then I conclude He has a beginning (= birth) in which he was created (= born). Jesus is the first created spiritual being whom God gave the the power to create all other things (through Him). Jesus is the first spiritual...

    Heaven?

    Is there any other conclusion with the Scripture in hands and Spirit in mind? ;)

    Heaven?

    I agree that the New Earth does not necessarily mean a planet. Just as the new heaven (or heaven as such) does not mean the clouds around the planet Earth. Just as the sea (which will disappear with the old earth and the old heaven) does not mean waves and water. The new earth are the...

    Heaven?

    I mentioned 17:24 because of "I wish that where I am they also may be with me". Where is Jesus now?

    Heaven?

    I would like to add an important remark: Jesus was taken to heaven to His Father and before he was taken he told his disciples that he was going to prepare places in heaven for them. And they will be together with Him in heaven where He is. (John 17:24) The question is: Who will be in heaven...

    Is God speaking to us TODAY?

    Thanks :-) I will add a lot to that madness if you allow :-) :-)

    Heaven?

    It is quite simple: - After the second arrival of Christ, it will be demonstrated who is true Christian and who is not. He who proves faithful and stands the events of the Last Day will live in heaven together with his or her brothers and sisters, Christians, in places which Christ went to...

    Is God speaking to us TODAY?

    (I may be a bit lengthy but please be patient with me.) Yes, it is a little strange that from the time of the first century when God added a number of books to the Scripture and caused great things to happen on earth, He seems to have been silently waiting for two thousand years already...
