  • 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

    What should I tell this person?

    I was talking to someone about how the Bible is God's word, but he insisted that it couldn't be because it was written by humans and that it's different people's interpretations, etc. I told him it was generally accepted that God told them what to write but he questioned by who and basically...

    Sometimes I feel destined to fail..

    I do realize that however I have always pursued a relationship with Christ. You're probably right and that's what troubles me. At church on Sunday, the speaker talked about dying to self which is something I struggle with. It's difficult to even think about. During worship I cried out to God...

    How do I find a job?

    So if you want a job you must already have one. Kinda sounds like I'm screwed.

    Is it wrong to go for a girl before I can possibly support her?

    Is it wrong? No. But be careful. Such strong feelings can lead to disappointment.

    Sometimes I feel destined to fail..

    I've grown up in a Christian home and have pretty much gone to church all my life. I should have an amazing walk with God by now but I don't. I'm lazy, I'm selfish, and I struggle with idolotry. I try to read my Bible and pray but I always let my anxiety get the best of me. I feel like the soil...

    That is quite a challenge.

    Where to begin?

    I'd like to be involved in the missions field but I don't know how to go about it. You need money for this kind of thing and I'm relatively poor. I'm tired of worrying about my own problems though and would like to spend my time helping others. Our time on this planet is short.

    Second guessing yourself

    I know the feeling. I second guess myself constantly even with simple things. Even with this reply, I'm wondering if it sounds good enough to post or not.

    Is it wrong to get rich quickly?

    It might. I don't have a lot of possessions but I find it hard to part with what I do have. It's kinda like they're more important than they should be. It's something I've been struggling with lately actually.

    Is it wrong to get rich quickly?

    Maybe God is testing you. I would probably be tempted to keep it but as I'm being reminded lately, possessions are temporary.

    If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions...

    This scripture has always struck a chord with me and it's always bothered me. Recently I've been thinking about it a lot and it came up in a sermon I heard on Sunday. Again while I was reading the book of Mark. Does God really want to me to give up all my possessions? If so, what does he want me...

    Is masturbation REALLY a sin?

    I think they mean in the legal sense. Marriage itself is a contract but it doesn't say you need a contract to be considered married.

    Does the Bible address suicide?

    Let me start by saying that I have no intention of commiting suicide. A couple months ago, my mom mentioned to me that she was tired of life and wanted peace. She wanted to end it all. Long story short, she didn't which is great. That's not however the first time someone has told me they were...
