  • 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

    If you see the anti-Christ, will you be "anti" anti-Christ?

    Hi there, So this is about standards of behaviour: specifically, what standard will you adopt, if you see the anti-Christ? Will you be "anti" anti-Christ, or will you be kosher? The point is, not that we have found the upper hand to the anti-Christ, but that we are lead by the Holy Spirit...

    Taken Captive by Empty Deceit

    Colossians 2:8 ESV “See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.” Other than speaking of individuals who are liars and deceivers, who love to manipulate...

    How can you financially support a church whose finances are in a secret black box?

    I was raised Southern Baptist, where an annual 'Business Meeting' was held once a year or so to print up a budget to be voted on by formal church members who felt like showing up on a Wednesday night. Deacons (and budget committee members when there was such a committee assigned), decided what...

    The falling away (of the Church), is far slower,, than men expect (selah)

    Hi there, So I worked this out for myself, but I thought I had better share it - and stay in the right spirit, than be alone in my interpretation of where the Church stands. Essentially, people become aware that the falling away is happening, but they can't draw conclusion from that, that it...

    The falling away, is primarily Israel, not the nations (but the nations must be ready)..

    Hi there, So yes, just to allay the fears of some, I know Jesus said the tribulation would test all flesh, but it is important to put that in context: the Cross of Jesus tested all flesh, our generation has not fallen further away. They will be tested further, but they will not continue to fall...

    Why is this happening? I attend two different churches and at one of them I’ve been getting spiritually attacked, so has my sister. We both got attacked the same day.

    What's it Mean to Be the Church?

    I was on Facebook yesterday when I saw a meme which said: “We will never change the world by just going to church. We will only change the world by being the church.” In my response to the meme I agreed, but then I said, “A lot of folks have different ideas about what it means to be the...

    Calling to Ministry…just not in a Church

    Hello, I have had a strong calling to the ministry for 9 years. For some reason it has never worked out within a Church. I have done more ministry outside of the church. I’m wondering if this normal. All of it unpaid and mostly unplanned. I have tried to plan it but it doesn’t seem to work as...

    28 Year Correction Leads To Great Tribulation In 2040 Ad

    I'm back (and looking for a church)

    I made this account a while ago and was going through a rough spot in my life. That rough spot is still going, but it's getting better because for the first time in my entire life, I have seen (and accepted) responsibility for how I got myself to this point, my criminal record, etc. and I have...

    Broken Faith

    What is Broken Faith? Well, it cant be the belief system found in someone who is religious but lost. The unbelievers can't have broken faith, as they have none yet. So, this isn't the person who is water baptized and very religious, but is not born again, as they have no faith to be broken...

    Church or cult, or what?

    Hello everyone! I'm a current member of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (PBCC) , but I am going through some serious struggles with church membership right now. To start off, I'm typing this on an "open phone" - brethren speak for a phone that doesn't have the church-mandated internet...

    As long as you have the cross, you have the way

    Hi there, So yes, I have been freed of a very severe bondage. As long as you have the cross, you have the way. Don't ask God to fix today, what He can fix for all time, at the end. This is the miracle of God, that what He saved you from at the end, He saved for eternity from that point on.
