  • 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

    Should a Christian Celebrate Easter or Christmas?

    Since Jesus was present at Hanukkah, a man-made, state and religious holiday, comparable to Thanksgiving today, and also the NT didn't rebuke it, it must be okay to have holidays like Easter and Christmas, even if they were man-made. But Easter was already established by the early second...

    Military Service wrong for Christians

    Some facts to consider: 1. All Nations are Satan's, Jesus and Revelation say so. 2. Rome was just as bad as Nazi Germany, yet only submission was taught. 3. You have to stretch the NT pretty hard to support military service. 4. The current US war for example, is all wrong, all bad, certainly...

    How to let go of the BIG QUESTIONS and trust God.

    I think it's a mixture of both accepting that He knows better and keeping on studying and you will be rewarded with many answers that solve your previous doubts. Most importantly...there are the worse people who doubt God because of trials. Then there are people like maybe you and Job who...

    Christians and Creationism

    Star of the Dawn is very admirable for saying what he did and not being a christian. Which is respectable. But for other's here who are self-proclaimed Christian yet deny the literal creation, that is not respectable at all.

    Living the Christian Life

    You have hope and potential then! Not doing enough, and not wanting to do more, are signs of upcoming apostasy. We have too many talkers, not enough doers. "Do not just hear and deceive yourselves, but do!" I personally went on pursuit of ideas and plans, and even though some weren't for me...

    Should a christian be a lawyer and not sin?

    You haven't heard 1 Timothy 6:10 before that "the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil"? And was my point really missed so easily? You can spend money good too. My point was disobeying God to keep a job is wrong. A lawyers choice to lie or not is exactly the type of fruit by which we...

    Christians and Creationism

    Because "through Him all things were made" and God spoke everything into existence and Scripture is the Word of God and John writes that Jesus is the Word made flesh. This is what "He is our intermediary" means. Because Jesus Himself said "Not that i will ASK (things) on your behalf" so it's...

    Should a christian be a lawyer and not sin?

    Anything but yes or no comes from the evil one. Do not bear false witness. Hell is for liars. All Scripture. Justifying sin for money? Money is a root of many evils after all.

    Christians and Creationism

    If you don't believe in the six day creation you're not a Christian. Not to mention evolution is easily disproven, it's a fairy tale. Don't sell out. Because it's God WORD. And Jesus is the WORD.

    God has told my girlfriend to marry someone else.

    You can be safe with the chance of it being God or a selfish game, by simply saying 'okay, we're over, chose what you want, or think.' And if she doesn't chose you, it's either because she doesn't deserve you or God did have another plan.

    Am I unreasonable?

    Maybe having experience in it is exactly why you're the best person for it.

    devoid of emotion....help!

    Not to mention emotions don't mean anything. Paul wanted to depart to be with Christ very badly, but knew his remaining a while longer would benefit us. Depression can be either a sign it's time to shape up your life, or a simple chemical issue you've been awarded the blessing of bearing and I...

    Should a christian be a lawyer and not sin?

    Never lie, never take a case helping someone do wrong. Else you've put a job before God. And you're not a Christian. You can be a lawyer and Christian, just have to own up. And don't deny Christ before others, or He'll deny you.
