  • 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.

    Speaking in Tongues and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit

    Deadworm I read every word you post here and look forward to anything you have to say. I've had two experiences with my friend in the past 3 years where I made a simple statement about suggesting he ask Jesus for help and literally all hell breaks loose in the house he lives in. They use the...

    Speaking in Tongues and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit

    On the phone yesterday with a friend of mine who came home from Europe and was met as he walked in the door by a 10 foot tall black spirit who spoke to him in Latin. He knows some latin. He said it charged him and went right through him. This is not his first encounter. As we talked I asked him...

    deliverance ministry

    What I'm suggesting is more subtle than what you are saying. I'm not trying to discourage the OP from anything she feels led to. What I'm saying is we shouldn't always assume the magic solution to problems is to just cast out a demon. This often is a shortcut solution that ignores more difficult...

    Illuminati Conspiracy Theories

    You know the answer to your OP question. We'll see if you or someone comes up with the one detail that will tell you the truth.

    Illuminati Conspiracy Theories

    Go beyond the definition Illuminati. Try to find any detail about the Rothschild family, this is very difficult. Possible net worth of 500 trillion. Trillion? This number could solve every problem in the world.

    Illuminati Conspiracy Theories

    First of all, "conspiracy theory" is the first line of defense. "Oh is this a conspiracy theory we're talking about?" "Ah, are you a conspiracy theorist?" This is a very well laid plan to make people who get too close look like nutbags, outcasts, losers. In interviews people are often exposed...

    deliverance ministry

    I'm obviously talking from a place of fear? Fear of what? I have a good friend who for a period of about a year was surrounded by spirits who showed themselves to him daily. (have you ever seen this?) I know 2 people who were with him and saw these spirits. He sent me some pictures that are...

    Deliverance & cult activity, especially in business practices

    Wow, that's quite a laundry list Martina! I've never even heard of any of those things. Satan never finishes changes his work and making it harder to detect him. Jesus stops it all so you need a group of people who can pray to Jesus specifically for each of these.

    Beware of demons.

    They're probably hiding in the Vatican waiting for some new evil to pop up like the Cardinal George Pell from Australia (number 3 in charge of the treasury) who is being accused in Australia of a lifetime of sexual abuse of boys.

    I Love Jesus, but Hate His Church.

    This is such an honest, heartfelt description of your life and just cuts through all our complex discussions of theology and bible knowledge. If you can't be supported in a church because you are different in some way we should all ask, "Where is the church?' I pray that God will help you find...

    I Love Jesus, but Hate His Church.

    Hate is too strong a word for this. How about just being irritated with someone, like a female pastor with a high squeeky voice I can't hear and simple (Mr. Rogers goes to church) type messages? I don't hate her, I'm just so irritated with the delivery it becomes a distraction.

    I Love Jesus, but Hate His Church.

    I've been trying to commit to a Lutheran church nearby but have a problem with one of the pastors. She has a very high voice and talks about very simple things. I call it "Mr. Rogers goes to church." How she was ever encouraged in the seminary homiletics courses is beyond me. I finally decided...

    Church discipline

    Can you kind of see why he might not like going to your church? This kind of intrusiveness can be very irritating and these elders are being busy bodies. If you love your church just keep going and hold your head up. Their pettiness will become apparent.
