  • 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

    baptism of the Holy SPirit?

    The text that you are referring to does not say that salvation is based on the baptism of the Holy Spirit but on the saving grace of Christ. John3:16 - "For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son that whoever believes on him shall not perish but have eternal life." "If the...

    Who went to/is going to PRIDE?

    I am trying to fathom why God fearing Christians are going out to support the Pride festival. Homosexuality is sin and in the eyes of God is wrong. Yes we are to love the sinner but we are also to hate the sin. I guess it is the choice that we all have to make and than live with those choices...

    Sex and Swearing in your writing- Is it permissible?

    The way that I look at it is that you have been given a talent by God for the use to glorify him. I have a very hard time in the ability to write things that contain elements that would not honor Him. The question that comes down is one that you have already answered....you feel convicted! If it...
