  • 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

    Fear of the Unpardonable Sin (OCD?)

    Thank you to everyone who answered. It’s a genuine struggle for me. Obviously it’s not something I ever want to think; however, my OCD keeps this topic in the front of my mind because I’m so afraid of it. It’s scary because your mind produces so many awful thoughts and I’m just stuck here trying...

    Fear of the Unpardonable Sin (OCD?)

    I’m having a really difficult time and I need to talk it out. I’ve been struggling with intense fear of the Unpardonable Sin. Let me say, by no means do I want to have ANY though against the Lord in any way, shape, or form. I would genuinely rather have the Lord take me before I committed such...

    Can I Stop Intrusive Thoughts? OCD Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit

    Guys I don't think y'all understand. I don't think what happened was OCD. I think I willingly thought one of those thoughts half hazardedly. I know you can call me a moron. I agree with you. I've just always grown up with this idea of "eternal security" so I thought I was invincible. I thought...

    Fear of the Unpardonable Sin

    I thought Ananias and his wife lied to the Holy Spirit instead of blaspheming him, and did not commit the unpardonable sin.

    Fear of the Unpardonable Sin

    This is a message to all of you, but my understanding of the unforgivable sin is doing what the Pharisees did in the passage. Additionally, I believe it can be committed today because even tho Jesus is not here as he was then, the Holy Spirit is still present.

    To all that read this please help me! I've been through some rough times recently, and I looked to the Bible for comfort. Then I came across the verse mentioning the unpardonable sin. I liked to place verses about forgiveness as wallpaper on my phone. I searched for one on the internet to find...
