  • 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

  1. Don't Put Your Trust in Them

    Psalms 146:3-4 ESV “Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. When his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish.” “Princes” can be government rulers, or they can be pastors and elders of churches (or in the state...
  2. For Our Nation

    War, politics, lies, betrayal, the murdering of innocents, our young men and women in uniform dying on a battle field via men of power; takeovers of nations, riots and lawlessness, sin abounding, the church asleep or complacent for the most part; the gospel diluted, and do we even notice?

    2 Timothy 4:6 ESV “For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come.” Paul was a man of God. He was not perfect, but he was also not living in sin.

    I live in the United States of America. I am a naturalized citizen, for I was born here in the state of Ohio in 1949. I grew up like most Americans of that time going to public school where we were taught to say the pledge of allegiance to the flag of the USA. I grew up being taught to sing...
