  • 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.

    life and death are in the power of the tongue?

    Rather than rehash the scriptures, I can truly say that the word of your mouth can lead to death, especially yourself. Here's an easy proof. Say negative things for several days, "I hate life, I hate today, etc". See how you feel at the end of those days. I can assure you that you will...

    Pakistan Apostacy Bill = Persecution for Christians

    Pakistan is primarily Muslim. This is one more step in trying to create another Muslim theocracy in the area. The currrent dictatorship is not strong enough to stand up to the Muslim extemists, and the border areas between Pakistan and Afganistan have been a haven for extremists for decades...

    What do you think of a Conferation or a Council Of Christian Faiths

    If you're interested in liberal policies, not Christianity, then a WCC, etc is for you. True Christianity, based on the Bible, centered on Salvation through the death and ressurection of Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, is and will always be, a minority religion that many organized...

    Idol Meat (Avoiding Products & Investments in Apostate Companies)

    The only "company" that truly claims to be Christian-based is Chick-Filet. That being said, the owner still has to answer to the stock-holders. The stock-holders (primarily major investment firms, insurance companies, retirement funds, etc) are interested in one thing, and that return on...

    Enough! (We Don't Need Handguns - When God Is for Us, Who Could Be Against Us)

    I truly believe that He can protect me. That being said, there's the old story about the man on his roof and the waters were rising. A truck came along, a canoe came along, a boat came along, a helicopter came along, and he kept repeating "God will protect me". Well, the waters came and he...

    How do you get people off the phone, politely?

    Self-employed for years, having clients wanting status, blah, blah, blah. They think it's important, but in the great scheme of things (getting MY work done), it's NOT important. Remember, just because someone else thinks something is important, it doesn't mean that it's important TO YOU...

    For every Muslim willing to be tolerant, there's 10 or more willing to be intolerant, even to the death of those who they oppose.

    Is something mystical going to happen on 07/07/07? or on 08/08/08??

    Things happen every day. Little things, big things. People wake up, children are born, people die. Perhaps He will come on that date. Not going to hold my breath on it, though. Don't wanna turn blue in the face. :)

    The Globalist Manifesto

    Since you have tens of millions of people who believe that it is their duty to their god to kill all who don't believe the same way, it is only a wish and a dream. it will never happen until He comes again.

    Time for a tithing thread

    The one problem I have with tithing to a church is how churches are using the tithes. There are far too many churches that use tithing not for His work, but for grandiose buildings, grand homes for the ministers, high salaries, and expensive ads; yet you do not see them feeding the hungry or...

    Another Divorce Question

    The question comes, can you live with someone whose whole life has been a lie? Consider that there are two sides of the world, the world of forgiveness through Jesus, and the world of the liar, Satan. When you accept Jesus, you turn your back on the liar, giving up the earthly man for the...

    Poll: Prophecies on SFPC--Sayest Thou Yea or Nay?

    Some "prophecies" turn out to be the desires of the person. Others are a repackaging of the Gospel to glorify the person making the "prophecy". But among all the false prophets are true prophets, meek men and women giving voice to the Holy Spirit as It moves in their hearts. In times past...
