  • 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

    Please Help.

    I agree with Dave1979, it sounds like OCD. The devil will use it to try to torment you until you are paralyzed with fear. Don't worry, don't believe the lies of the enemy. You are not condemned. The thoughts will come and possibly some more disturbing than others, but remember they have no power...

    debating on what to do

    I used to have a mentor then one day poof she disappeared on me. I met her online so our only contact was through Facebook and before that Myspace, but she deleted both accounts. No warning and no good byes. I didn't take it personally. I realize some people are meant to be in our lives only...

    My decision may change a persons life but need help

    I remember there was a homicide at my old apartment complex after a drug deal. It made me realize the seriousness of those who are involved in drugs and the people they bring around them. If it is possible, I would leave the Chris household asap, especially since Chris is doing nothing to...

    How to deal with insensitive people?

    I know how you feel, my dog is my baby. It's hard to hear people say stuff like that. When my other dog passed away and I was grieving, my pastor acted casual about it. However, I was prepared for him to react that way. You see, there are two types of people in this world, those who love their...

    Job/Financial Situation.

    I'm sorry you're going through some financial challenges. That isn't easy. I was wondering if you go to church? I've found jobs through the help of church members.

    blasphemy against the holy spirit

    The devil loves tormenting Christians with this one. If your desire is to be with God, then the Holy Spirit has never left you because only He can draw you to the Lord.

    Being Targeted

    I don't know how strict the mods are here but I also think it would be a good idea to report posts that come off rude. I have seen posts that are condescending and snarky. The person doesn't have anything useful to share, they just want to get at someone. I don't think that kind of behavior...

    Are coincidences from God?

    I got myself into a few stressful situations during times I followed coincidences. I am certain now coincidences are not always a sign from God but I'm not saying they're from the devil either. It still doesn't hurt to get to know your co-workers and share about God's love for them.

    hi I am new and I have a major concern I need help

    I used to dabble in the occult, that stuff is real but it's the devil's power, not God's. It doesn't matter what you've done, God's offer of salvation is for everyone. Ask God to forgive you, if you haven't already done so. Then enjoy your salvation. Read the bible, pray, and enjoy your life...

    If VPNs are illegal what do I do?

    I can kind of relate. There was a Canadian show I wanted to watch desperately and I could have watched it on YouTube easily but I felt it was wrong for me to because the person who uploaded the show on YouTube did not have permission from the Canadian Channel to use their material. So, I emailed...

    does this throw a girl or woman off?

    In general, women feel uncomfortable receiving gifts from men they are not interested in. Since she is an older woman, maybe she felt it was inappropriate. I don't believe the age gap should be an issue but she has to be on the same page as you. Are you familiar with the story of Derek & Lydia...

    does this throw a girl or woman off?

    When you say we were out and our night out, are you saying you were on a date with her? I just need clarity so I know what the relationship is between you two. Does she like you back?

    Desperately seeking advice for my small church

    He needs to be blocked from your church's FB page. He needs to be kicked out of your church too if he doesn't repent.

    Frustrated

    It takes a while to adjust after moving to a new state. My recommendation is find a nice church to go to and serve there. Serving is the best way to connect with people, make friends, and fellowship with your church family. From there, you'll meet people at your church who have their own...
