  • 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

    Understanding Colossians and Ephesians and the author of ordinances that were against Jesus, Paul and the Church of God. Part 2.

    Matt. 3: 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O "generation of vipers", who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: 9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to...

    Understanding Colossians and Ephesians and the author of ordinances that were against Jesus, Paul and the Church of God.

    It seems prudent to point out some undeniable Biblical truths that many preachers, whose sermons and I have read and heard for most of my 66 years of life, refuse to consider, concerning Colossians and Ephesians. There is nothing wrong in pointing these things out in the hope of having a...

    But thou shalt love thy neighbour "as thyself"

    As I lay in bed last night, pondering the Word of God, these Scriptures came into my mind. Lev. 19: 17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him. 18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of...

    Be Holy, for I am Holy

    These Words from the God of the holy Scriptutres are first found in Leviticus 11: 44 For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.45 For I...

    What Covenant did Israel break with the Golden Calf

    Recently there was a discussion regarding the so called "Mosiac Law" that was closed. This caused the discussion, an important one in my view, to stop, including ridding me of the opportunity to respond to a reply. There is a lot of confusion surrounding this issue, and it seems prudent to study...

    Him that is Weak in Faith

    Recently I was told that Romans 14 is a chapter of the Bible that forbids believers from making judgment regarding the actions or practices of others they have already Judged as "Weak in Faith". I know, it's goofy. But a lot of folks have been convinced of this by this world's religions it...

    The Exodus

    In the Holy Scriptures, Paul reminds the Body of the Christ of the Bible not to be ignorant of the Exodus. 1 Cor. 10: 1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 And were all baptized unto Moses...

    Where does the universal religious tradition of building Shrines of worship come from?

    A few weeks back I was driving in Denver Colorado and I came on a street which had about 5 church buildings on it. They were all from different religious sects, they all looked similar in appearance, and from the outside there was really no way of telling what particular religion created them...

    Deceiving and Being Deceived

    2 Tim. 2:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce...

    Deceiving and being deceived

    2 Tim. 3:13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. 14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are...

    Why was God's Sabbath Made for Man?

    Jesus once said "Sabbath is made for man, not man for the Sabbath". Why did Jesus think Man Needed His Father's Sabbath? I think the Spirit of this same Christ gives us some insight to this through the Word's of Isaiah. Is. 58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew...

    Why was the Priesthood Changed?

    It is written; Heb. 7:12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. 13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar. 14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which...

    Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us,

    Col. 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. I have heard it proclaimed by...
