  • 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.

    fell into bitter unbelief again

    it was like a weird angry doubting moment of contempt and I'm scared it counts as rejecting Christ and that Jesus will will point out all the times I not only had a blasphemous thought but a FEELING of unbelief in my HEART and he'll see me as a Judas when I get up there, I want him but i'm...

    in bad shape

    I made an impulsive vow to God that I wouldn't eat a real meal until I went to this local employment place, but I went to their website and they didn't have anything, and their number is disconnected and they had no listing when I called information. So I assume they're not there, I've made...

    1 John 4:7-4:8

    "Beloved, may we love one another, because the love is of God, and every one who is loving, of God he hath been begotten, and doth know God; he who is not loving did not know God, because God is love." I struggle with being selfish, but it's important that we continue to care and pray for one...

    Blasphemed the Holy Spirit? (I know, I know)

    Long story short.... I was getting into which Bibles were accurate, based on the proper Greek text... the whole KJV v.s. newer translations thing. So for a while I was convinced it was KJV and the others weren't always translated properly....so I'm at my computer looking in the other room at my...

    superstition or sign from God (scared)

    so I'm afraid I've violated Hebrews 10:26 by looking at a sinful website right after I'd had the quote about the Lamb of God taking away the sins of the world in my browser window. Also I had images of Christ's crucifixion in my mind while I was doing it and didn't stop, even taking the time to...

    we should be careful not to...

    claim to be "without sin" (1 John 1:8) with regards to our OCD thoughts, yes we hate them (Romans 7:20) which means it's not who we are and we are saved and forgiven, but I believe it's still sin and, perhaps at the end of the day in bed, we should confess them, I would think probably as a group...

    unwanted emotions?

    sometimes while having a doubting thought or whatever I'll feel an emotion either of smugness or hostility towards a vague image or idea of Christ, but then I'm like "where did that come from, I hate that, Lord that's not how I feel about you"
