  • 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.

    Not under law: Not under its condemnation or its commands?

    Hello! Various passages of Scripture suggest we're not under the law, which I understand to be the law of Moses. Do these passages suggest that its commands are no longer binding on us today? Acts of the Apostles 15 seems to be about circumcision and keeping the law of Moses in general (Acts of...

    Adam sinned/transgressed heavens law long before the Mosaic/covenant at Sinai was cut. The Mosaic covenant was cut/established with one nation only, Israel. Their purpose was to be a set apart nation of priests/mediators between God & mankind (Ex 19:6). The Sinai covenant was a marriage...

    Galatians 4:8-11 ESV Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods.

    Set Free!

We read the Bible (Genesis to Revelation) because we believe it to be the Word of God. Therefore, we read it...
