  • 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.

    Would you wear a cross to an interview?

    At the moment no, tbh I really do not broadcast that openly I am a Christian. If they ask I would tell them but I rather not provoke everyone else around me and to an extent I am a person who has a hard time not caring about how others judge me. One of my downfalls.

    Motivating yourself for studying the bible?

    Well, I guess I will just see you in the 18-mid 30s forum then guessing you will still have access to that one. I am currently am asking for a mindset willing to learn the knowledge rather than treating it as a boring study. I will say it is much more enjoyable and amazing of a learning...

    Bibles and Literature

    I am currently reading a commentary Bible myself and am currently enjoying it. That may not be what you mean exactly by a study bible though. Some of the more standard ones seem nice and all but I believe personally it is painfully boring sometimes to read the ones where it transforms into a...

    Youth Group Unbiblical?

    Sunday school for me years back was generally where a senior of the church would teach a group of youth by having us read the bible and teach us the importance of the lessons.

    Growing up in a world...

    If they say something ridiculous I have learned to ignore those things as it leads nowhere and it is generally a waste of time to answer nonsense. More or less for me it is not about defending God from being bashed as anything they say to "bash" is generally false to begin with so I do not...

    Street Preaching

    If you get the message across the right way I have no problems with it. I have noticed many seem to just be provoking anger and do the cause more harm than good.

    How do you talk to your friends about Christ? A few months back I was having a friendly discussion with one of my closer messenger friends who believes in a God but doesn't believe in the bible and after talking for awhile about it it seems my friend is perfectly happy enough with his beliefs...
