  • 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

    Julie Green--who is she?

    Oh sorry, I did not see the whole loving and happy family. I watched the prophecy part and immediately recognized the problem. Because of love in me, I know she needs help only God can give her. We are to be one body. The strong must help the weak.

    Julie Green--who is she?

    Hello. I listened to her prophecy, except for a minute when I walked out the room to get some coffee. She is deeply troubled. She needs our Lord to strengthen her and heal her of many troubles. Oh Lord, please help this lady. Please give her strength and peace. Thank you our Lord.

    Prove me wrong: Every possible starting point to the 70 Weeks Prophecy faces insurmountable problems

    I do not think the Lord will return until there is peace on Earth. Peace meaning simply the absence of war and rumors of war. This will not happen until there is a one world leader person. Trying to align the 70 weeks is not my goal right now. We can be content to face one day at a time and...

    Pray for People Battling Cancer (3)

    Please pray for me. I have pancreatic cancer and none of the treatments has cured it. Last Friday my doctor said when I want to go into hospice to let him know. I do not want hospice or death. Please pray. "The prayer of a righteous man avails much". This means the prayers of a righteous person...

    Question for Amillennialists

    Satan is only one evil spirit. There are many evil spirits on the loose in the world. When Satan is released from the bottomless pit, things will get much worse. I believe the 1,000 years is a literal 1,000 year period. Weather or not we are in that now, I'm not sure. Christ rules from Heaven...

    WHO WROTE MATTHEW?

    Someone was familiar with Johns teachings and could have written John. There were lots of writings and John could be a compilation of those writings.

    WHO WROTE MATTHEW?

    The internal evidence in John points to another source other than John himself. All the difference is with the 1st person or 3ard person. John is written in the 3rd person. We can safely say John did not write John. The teachings of John are expressed in the book. So we can say in that respect...

    Beings from beyond... Does it have to shake our theology?

    All the ufo hype began after Orson Wells scared everyone with tales of martians invading the earth. Hollywood exploited the fears of people for money. Natural phenomenon plays tricks on people's minds. People are in a hurry to have a moment of fame. All these things are at play. The government...

    WHO WROTE MATTHEW?

    Yes there were others who followed Christ. At one time though it was a very small number. Christ, ask them, "Will you leave also?" BTW, I do not claim to know who wrote Matthew. I wrote about the Matthew/Mark comments because someone was trying to say that with Matthew borrowing from Mark, it...

    WHO WROTE MATTHEW?

    Some have said that Matthew borrowed from the book of Mark. They say Mark learned from the Apostle Peter. The truth is that the 12 Apostles all saw what Jesus did and heard what Jesus said. The Holy Spirit brought this to their memories. They were not dependant on each other for what to write.

    WHO WROTE MATTHEW?

    Yes we should not be deceived by liberals. Even so, do we think Early Church leaders living 100 to 250 years after the fact, should be received as reliable witnesses? They had a reputation for Orthodoxy, but sometimes they were not correct. They could quote what someone else said about Matthew...

    WHO WROTE MATTHEW?

    I like your answer. It is honest and straight forward

    WHO WROTE MATTHEW?

    This topic is controversial, so maybe it belongs here in controversial Christian Theology. As the title suggest, I have been researching to find out if there is any proof that Matthew really wrote Matthew. At this point the only way I could verify "who", would to have been an eye witness of who...

    TWO INTERPRETATIONS: “For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel.”

    Ain't Zwinglian: I apologize for falsely accusing you of twisting the scriptures. I did that in post #10. It was late at night and I was skim reading. Not a good combo. I went back and read it again and realized my mistake. You actually did a wonderful job of teaching.

    Baptismal Regeneration

    I'll go to the point. Yes water Baptism does regenerate us. It is not total regeneration. The other part of regeneration is being baptized in the Holy Spirit. Many are being tripped today by taking these two baptisms lightly. Many will say to Jesus," Lord, Lord". Jesus says to them, "Depart...

    Baptism in the name of?

    Ok so we must believe in Jesus name to be saved. "There is no other name given among men whereby we must be saved". But are you saying we don't need to be baptized in his name in water Baptism?

    Repent & be baptized ISN'T the message for the Church today

    Sound Bible study begins with Biblical Greek word studies. We must know the full range of meanings for each word and phrase. There are many errors in the above statements because some of you posting here assign the wrong meaning to some of these Biblical words. Find a good word study dictionary...

    All Israel Will Be Saved ?

    Paul speaks clearly that not all Israel is Israel. All gentile believers are equally Israel. Only a remnant of the Jews will be saved. The times of the gentiles will be filled and then we can say that all Israel is saved. It is tough for someone to hear this when they have been misguided by so...
