  • 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

    Dread Locked Jesus ???

    I love the dreaded Jesus. In my church's Easter play the "Jesus" usually has a dreaded wig. Two years ago we had a man with real, really long dreads. The play was awesome! The actor really studied the scripture and Jesus's character a lot before the play. And he look ancient and authentic on the...

    Has anyone been thru a Mormon temple?

    Some people would have us believe Christianity is divided because there are different denominations. Before accusing the denominations of dividing the one church we need to look into the differences in denominations. A lot of differences have to do with the way in which church services are run...

    Best argument agenst Creationism?

    Pardon me but I do not see how creationism and evolution contradict each other. Genesis doesn't break down how God created the earth, it just says he spoke then things happened. Who's to say he didn't pull out his lab out his pocket and mixed the DNA to create life. Unless my biology book is...

    3 equal 1?

    Can 3 equal 1? To tell the truth I reallly don't know exactly how that can be physically possible but I can't ignore scripture. Colossians 2:9 For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form. Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our...

    3 equal 1?

    The Jewish people knew these scriptures were prophesying a savior or prophet. However they expected salvation from the Romans, not for their sins. Christ did fulfil all the propheys about himself but the Jews who were looking, were looking for a military leader like the Judges. Reading the...

    I Won't Let Go!!

    I have just recently taken an interest into the meaning of names after reading The Prayer of Jabez, by Bruce Wilkinson. Jabez was a guy in Chronicles and his name meant pain, his future wasn't too bright with a name like that. If you read the book then you can see that he was tremendously...

    Friend asks: Why do they need saved?

    To Bobby: About the pool analogy, God didn't throw us into it, Adam and Eve jumped in willingly, ignoring God's warning. Now it is up to God to pull us out or "save" us. We continue to jump into pools we cannot get ourselves out of. I agree sometimes God puts us into a pool we can not get...

    Friend asks: Why do they need saved?

    To Homie: Someone once told me that God can read the hearts of all men. I believe there is scripture to support that but it doesn't come to mind right now. Since God can read all hearts he can judge wheather or not someone who never heard the gospel, would believe if they were presented with...

    Quiet or devotional time is a length of time you dedicate to God, by praying, reading the Bible and/or singing. Do you practice a quiet time? If you do then when, for how long and what time of day? How important is it to you? I try to have a devotional time in between classes in the...
