  • 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.

    Some Arminian responses to the pure Biblical Gospel

    T - "I just can't see myself as bad!" (Too incriminating...) U - "But... I thought God loves everyone?" (At this point I point out Rom 9) L - *2 Peter 3:9!* (You should see the look on most Arminian's faces when they use this as a prooftext, yet I show in response that Peter was...

    Required: mp3 sermons about TULIP

    Hey all, I'm currently building a mp3 sermon library on my computer, and I need some stuff on each of the 5 points of Calvinism. Now, what I specifically require (and this will be a tough one) are some expository sermons by respected authorities on each point that explain the doctrine...

    "Seek Ye First the Favor of Man"???

    The Lord laid upon my heart the word of the Apostle Paul regarding where the power of the gospel’s presentation actually lies: 18For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19For it is written: "I will...

    Do's and Don't of Witnessing.

    Be specific about sin: don't leave it as an abstract, much less presume that the fallen concience is already aware of it on the basis of their own understanding. It is not enough to merely say that sin is simply “missing the mark of God’s standard ‘for all have sinned and fall short of the glory...

    Impatience with Tracts

    The desire for Profit and Loss with regards to results should never take the place of Faithfulness and Obedience towards the great commission. So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall...

    "Bullhorn Guy": Robb Bell (NOOMA) vs Todd Friel (Way of the Master Radio)

    I have indeed watched both which is exactly why I'm bringing this topic up. The truth of the matter is that Todd Friel did not produce his video to attack Bell pre-emptively for the sake of being nasty, but rather as a counter to the statements that Bell and others are making that go against...

    "Bullhorn Guy": Robb Bell (NOOMA) vs Todd Friel (Way of the Master Radio)

    I would personally define "Hellfire Preaching" as deliberate condemnation without sound reason or accompanied grace; something the majority of street preachers will admit to not doing themselves in addition to speaking against. Take a look at Willo's "Journal of a Journey" Open-Air Blog here...

    "Bullhorn Guy": Robb Bell (NOOMA) vs Todd Friel (Way of the Master Radio)

    Because like it or not, truth is by nature exclusive, not inclusive. While it may be possible to find a middle ground between two, chances are that it will only be based on partial similarities rather than representing the whole of either side. Never. Let me kindly ask you something: When you...

    Is election required for a healthy marriage?

    I'm still trying to figure out whether I can agree with reformed theology, but anywhoo, I'd like to pose what may come across as a silly question: We can agree that marriage is a covenental coming together between man and woman in which both share in physical, mental, emotional and - this...

    "Bullhorn Guy": Robb Bell (NOOMA) vs Todd Friel (Way of the Master Radio)

    Makes you wonder how people can honestly proclaim the gospel when for all intents and purposes... they're ashamed of it!

    "Bullhorn Guy": Robb Bell (NOOMA) vs Todd Friel (Way of the Master Radio)

    Has anyone heard of this debate lately? Brief rundown: Rob Bell, producer of the NOOMA series of short teaching films, released a video simply called "Bullhorn" where he attacks open air preachers, those that expound on sin, righteouness and judgment; and basically says that such does not...

    Fear Witnessing

    How exactly do we define "meet them where they are?" :scratch: Are we talking about where they stand alongside their fellow men, or where they stand before a just and holy God? If the former, then that's circumstantial; if the latter, God already knows in clear black and white terms where they...

    Why use tracts

    One thing you can do is go to a stationary/office supplies shop and invest in a customisable ink stamp (prices will depend on what you want the stamp to say, lettering, font size, aotomatic or hand, etc.). The stamps I use contain my church's name, time and venue details and website URL.

    E-T revival?

    LOL, I've always wondered why the Enterprise never had a Chaplaincy. But here's my thoughts: 1. God's purpose for me on Earth and the reward that awaits in Heaven vs. The size and Scale of the Universe: Our planet is one of ten orbiting a star, which is in turn amongst a cluster of over...
