  • 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.

    Does this seem like a good church to attend

    Seems like a pretty standard protestant creed. Could be from any baptist, methodist, etc... church. Do they have a website?

    What can I do for you, Lord?

    Amen. Probably the most obvious way God works in my life is by opening and closing doors. May God bless you and make you sensitive to His will.

    hardening of heart question

    From a Biblical perspective, hardening the heart is what happens when we choose sin over following God. I believe the answer is to repent (turn away from your sins) and start walking to God. God will forgive, and if you draw close to Him, he will reciprocate.

    I've confused myself!!

    God loved the Apostle Paul, who had the blood of many of God's children on his hands. God welcomes you.

    Confirmation Or Baptism

    The Baptism of believers is a Scriptural command. So, whether or not you believe baptism is essential to God's plan of salvation, it is a command you should obey. Why? Because Jesus desires it (Mt. 28). Personally, I would not consider infant baptism (if they do that in the Anglican church) to...

    URGENT: Please Pray For This Family. Children Killed and Apparant Suicide Atempt

    It's hard to know how to pray. But the Spirit is certainly groaning within me.

    Dogs have souls?

    If you do a little bit of Googling, you'll find that there are a lot of passages of Scripture that folks use to insinuate that animals have souls. Some of them seem like a stretch to me. But there is this one passage that's always intrigued me... Ecclesiastes 3:21 Who knows if the spirit of man...

    Job Prayer

    There is nothing wrong with praying for a job. God wants us to work to provide for ourselves and others. Father, please help Your servant to find work. The economy is tough, Father, but you own the cattle on a thousand hills, and nothing is impossible for you. In Jesus' name, Amen. I recently...

    In need of guidance

    Father, I pray that you will open and close doors by your divine will to guide Linus and his wife to wherever you would have them server you. In Jesus' name, Amen.

    Please pray! The devils on the move

    When Satan is attacking you, isolating yourself from brethren is exactly what he wants. Praying for you.

    I Need Help

    That is gut-wrenchingly hard, I know. If you cheated on her or physically abused her, that is a very difficult thing for most people to return from. Whatever you did, it is of the utmost importance that you actually try to change yourself -- not just to show her that you have changed, but...

    Lost and alone

    Assuming here that you are a follower of Jesus Christ, washed in His blood... Father, please show this person in a way that is clear to them, that they are your child, and you are always there for them. Fill the gaps in their life in ways that only you can. Let them not flounder in doubt...

    Repentence of sins of the heart

    Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a right spirit within me. Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Thy presence; Take not Thy holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation; And renew a right spirit within me...

    Release delayed for U.S. missionary in Haiti (not Laura Silsby)

    Things like this are pretty frustrating. If they were dealing in human trafficking over there, it's just another smear on the church. Hopefully the are innocent and will be acquitted.
