  • 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

    my testimony of a unequally yoked relationship

    It truly blesses me to read a post where someone has chosen to be obedient to the Lord, above there own desires - and God will bless you for your obedience. Maybe this will be the catalyst for your girlfriend to return to the Lord - or maybe that isn't what He has in store for you but...

    Feminist Movement

    It seems to me that most people agree that equality is a good thing, but the more extreme feminism which goes beyond that is less admirable. But, I think a very important issue has been avoided to a large extent. While we're all arguing (oops, I meant discussing ;) ) about the obvious aspects...

    Concerned for a friend...

    Hi llahlahkje, The verses you're looking for are 2 Corinthians 6:14-16, Do Not Be Yoked With Unbelievers 14Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15What harmony is there between...

    Feminist Movement

    Hi PrNcSsChRmNg91, Just a couple of comments. The definition used was from a completely neutral source, I only used it because it was concise and encapsulated issues that I believe are very relevant to contemporary Christianity. You only need to look at the various conversations on this...

    Feminist Movement

    Thanks for your replies, so far. I've been trying to research a concise definition of 'feminism' as I understand it, and this was the closest to it that I could find: http://www.slider.com/enc/19000/feminism.htm feminismmovement for the political, social, and educational equality of women...

    Feminist Movement

    I'm not sure if this is really the right forum for this thread, but I'm putting it here because there is so much debate regarding the roles of men and women here. Anyway, to get to the point - do you believe that the feminist movement is something that is approved by God? I'm really...

    What constitutes adultery?

    hillygirl, you really have to be commended for the way you have honoured God in your situation. I would definitely say that you have just cause for divorce biblically speaking, but I think the way you have stuck with it and not just thrown the towel in is absolutely humbling. However, you...

    Great Book for Unequally Yoked Wives

    Hi WashedClean, Thanks for the recommendation, I shall certainly try to get hold of a copy. That is also a very helpful description of how to pray for our spouses. Sometimes, it's very easy to become habitual in the way we pray for them, so anything that helps is very welcome. I think we can...

    for husbands and wives, headship?

    My understanding is that 'Headship' = final arbiter; just as the Bible should be the final arbiter for Christian life, marriage, worship etc. etc. etc., whether PC in contemporary society or not :wave:.

    When Is It OK to Usurp The Marriage Headship?

    I believe that the bible's teaching is that we are to submit to our husbands only with the exception of being asked/instructed to do something that is contrary to God's teaching, or is dishonouring to God. When it comes to spiritual matters with the children, I believe it is our duty to teach...

    How did you end up unequally yoked?

    Hi All, I just spent about 15 mins telling my tale, but lost it somehow:mad: . Nevermind, I'll have another go when I've got more time. Snoopy

    Where did you meet your spouse?

    On a kibbutz in Israel. He was a Jewish member and I was a volunteer (not a Christian). Mind you, this was over 20 years ago and it was a bit safer then! Sorry it's not more helpful:rolleyes: .

    Is divorce a sin?

    I heartily agree with you, flesh. I think that contemporary society has become so self-serving and hedonistic that it seems almost impossible for even Christians to contemplate that sometimes God's laws and His will may be difficult roads to travel. John 15 10 If you obey my commands, you...
