  • 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.

    Very confused about my Christian faith please help?

    What is true faith? Peter denied Christ even though he walked with him. Ever walk across a rickety bridge or anything like that where you have some doubts of the safety but do it anyway? The point is action. You have that thing inside somewhere that causes doubt then you act in faith and that...

    Choosing the path is not enough

    I have learned over the years through both personal experiences and study of scripture that God will allow us to go extended periods of time waiting on Him. It seems as if He is not there and that He does not answer our prayers. He gets us through the horrible pain we land in and we cling to Him...

    Know God, know peace...no God, no peace...

    Truth is not relative but our lives are. The old saying: "Know God, know peace...no God, no peace" sums it up perfectly. I have found that when I seek God earnestly, I don't desire indulgences such as food, sex or stuff. The result of the time spent with God makes it easy for me to lose weight...

    What must i do?

    What would you have yourself do? If I give you a Christmas gift in a few weeks and you open the UPS package and see it all wrapped with a bow, what are you going to do for me before you open it? The burden is acceptance, if you do not accept then you are correct, you are not saved. It really...

    Please pray for me

    I am praying with you. I think avoiding the interaction is wise. Telling him may not be the best idea for several reasons. I am a guy and built different so I am clueless as to how to process this but I will be praying the Holy spirit will bless you with both strength and wisdom and that this...

    Difference Between...

    I believe at some point and often at many points we all either have or do doubt at times. Why else would we have so many guides in the bible as to how to build faith? Why did Thomas doubt and he walked with Jesus? So don't be too burdened with the thought of your lack of faith... you are human...
