  • 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

    Got a little too physical

    Girl, you opened pandora's box. After [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse], you've built neurons. This is a biological issue. Don't beat yourself up spiritually. You're okay. God loves you.

    After a year of having sex, we're finding it really hard to stop

    I feel for you and your situation. This isn't an easy situation as you want to please God and not affect your relationship with him in a negative way. There's no easy answer here. In fact, my wife and I went through the same thing, and I was a minister at the time. You've received a lot of...

    Rational approach to stabbing Satan

    Life is a series of tests and trials for the sake of our spiritual growth. When you and I are dead and buried, the question will be asked, "What did you do with your life?" or "Were you a sheep or a goat?" There will then be a separation of all peoples into two groups: the sheep, who fed the...

    What are YOU currently reading? (7)

    Very good fictional account of Jesus' "lost years" (before the ministry).

    How do you overcome bitterness toward God?

    I can't believe I'm suggesting this, but it sounds like you might need the experience. Try living without God for awhile. Make decisions based on the flesh instead of the spirit. Soon enough you will see the role God has been playing I. Your life from the day you were born. ETA: don't really.

    How do you overcome bitterness toward God?

    God does answer prayers, and praying is highly effective. But if all you are doing is praying, how do you suppose you are going to get answers? God uses us to get things done. Yes, by all means, become an atheist. I tried that once, and I'm still suffering the consequences. I'll never reject...

    If Love Is

    You misunderstand. JESUS HIMSELF WAS A PHARISAICAL RABBI. Pharisees are not the problem. It is the pharisees of Jesus' day by and large, who knew the law backward and forward, but they were not living it from the heart. They had external righteousness without love, which is nothing more than...

    How do you overcome bitterness toward God?

    I'm often offended by the responses here. And when I'm finished throwing a tantrum, I realize that their advice was more what I needed to hear than the coddling. You're a grown man. You need to take responsibility for your life. God doesn't owe you a thing, and to be angry with him is great. But...

    How do you overcome bitterness toward God?

    God (the power of the cosmos) owes you diddly squat.

    How do you overcome bitterness toward God?

    Your quality of life is a result of your mind and heart. God is the ideal answer to all of your issues. I know how that might not sound like I'm answering your question. This is the answer I needed when I asked the same.

    Abusive sister.

    I agree with BFine that this is the correct biblical approach. You owe her nothing except what Messiah has given freely to you. I'm sorry you are going through this trial. Use it as a means of drawing closer to Abba. Proud of you for staying the course when others jumped ship.

    Feel free to ask me, the CF staff trainer, anything!

    I am a father of 4 kids. Mine are a bit older though I think. I have three in high school and one in college. Here's our favorite joke: Why did the monkey fall out of the tree? because he was dead. .... I guess you had to be there. HAHAHAHAHAHA
