  • 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

    Questions Wanted RE: Tattoos, Piercings, etc.

    I agree to a point, Brother. I will have more to say a little later, as my tablet is behaving badly. Until then, may God bless you.

    Questions Wanted RE: Tattoos, Piercings, etc.

    Entirely plausible, Goodbook, except that tattoos can already be removed without even a scar to show for it, so... No, tattoos aren't the mark of the beast, in spite of what some people may think.

    Questions Wanted RE: Tattoos, Piercings, etc.

    Well, yeah, when you say it like that it makes sense; thing is I honestly thought that was basically your argument... So, then... Context is important, I guess. Thanks, BAC1!

    Questions Wanted RE: Tattoos, Piercings, etc.

    Perhaps I'm simply not seeing it then, BAC1. Elsewhere, you have argued that tattooing shouldn't happen because it came from pagan roots- So too do my examples; the knowledge they attained to perform their trades they gained while literal pagans. It would stand to reason, then, that while their...

    Questions Wanted RE: Tattoos, Piercings, etc.

    Question for everyone: If something that originates within paganism/rebellion/sin is never able to be used for God, should we ever use it again? For instance, a man learns to be a mechanic while he is a practicing Satanist; when he becomes a Christian, should he cease being a mechanic also...

    I don't suppose you accept historical evidence to the contrary? Oh- And if we could... Please keep on topic. Thanks!!

    Questions Wanted RE: Tattoos, Piercings, etc.

    DKH, I would like to question you on this assertion, if I may. All of these are, according to Christ, summed up in "Love God with all your heart... And love your neighbor as yourself." So, my question: Why are these assorted laws necessary? Genuinely curious about your understanding here.

    The Word Of God

    Scripture, of course; but also, whenever I hear the Lord guide/direct me, I'm following the Word of God also. God still speaks today, and sometimes quite loudly- The Canon may be closed, but that does not prevent God from speaking, thus, the Word of God still comes forth. The idea of...
