  • 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.

    = Born again

    What does it mean to be born again.. 1.) Your sins are on Christ because "God made JESUS to be sin for us, who knew no sin"..... And God's Righteousness has become yours, as you have become "the Righteousness of God in Christ"....."made Righteous". This is : "Salvation". This is "Redemption"...

    The Real : Walk of FAITH

    1.) We know that we can't please God by works, law, or commandment keeping. So, all of that is not discipleship. Paul said. "as many as be PERFECT",.. "the fullness of the Stature of Christ". See that? That is referring to "the mind of Christ", and "walking in the Spirit". IN other words, that...

    How Smart is the Devil ?

    How smart is the Devil? He was not smart enough to realize that he could not sit on a Throne of Rulership above God, in Heaven, so, he was sent down here. He is however, so very clever that he was able to deceive Eve into broken fellowship from God. He is also so clever that he can...

    Sharing some helpful maps for Bible Study (or study in general)

    As somebody who finds visual stimulus helpful for retaining information and thus finds maps incredibly useful, I thought I'd share some handy maps for Bible study.
