  • 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

    Jesus says you can only be Christian once?

    "Hebrews 7:27 27 Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself." Not continuous times every time we fail.

    Jesus says you can only be Christian once?

    Doesnt it also say in this context; "you are re-crucifying Jesus"? I guess it makes sense if that Jesus gave his life once for everybody, then to keep rejecting and then coming back would be making impure salt, (because the driving factor is not wanting to go to hell instead of driving to accept...

    Jesus says you can only be Christian once?

    Thanx both for your replies. It's been more that 5 years since I was walking down the street and 'felt' - for want of a better word - the spirit leaving me thru my head.. I've tried to get back to church, but........ So basically I shouldn't bother trying to be Christian.

    Where is Eden?

    Yes, after describing the movement of Noah on the actual map I attached, and knowing where Babel was, I had that same feeling. BTW, talking continental changes. This is a big blocker as the Bible seems to go from one to the other in generations - even if it was 900 years. Scientists are talking...
