  • 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.

    Feeling sick thinking about this

    I have been a Christian since about four or five, although I had a period last year of identifying as atheist then Taoist. People say a true Christian would never do that. That I wasn't saved before, or if I was saved I've crossed an unforgivable line. Could I have been saved? It scares me so...

    Faith in God

    Faith is to be in God, not just in an idea or concept. Often we view faith as being 'what' we believe, but it is important to remember that we are not putting out confidence in a thing or idea, but in Him. Faith is about putting your confidence in God: that He is faithful, that He keeps His...

    Doubts and Fears

    Over the past several months: I used to never miss church, and I loved going and worshiping, and learning from the preaching. Then it started to become easier to miss and didn't seem as important. And when I did go, my heart wasn't in it. I would lift my hands and pray but it's like I didn't...

    I desperately need valid proof of creationism.

    Hello everyone, I'm assuming that this is the correct subforum in which to post this topic, but if not, forgive me. Basically, I've grown up in a home that believes in 100% biblical inerrancy and that's what I've believed, but recently I've been having a lot of doubts about creationism in...

    How do you overcome the spirit of unbelief?

    I apologize for posting it in this thread, but I did not know what other category this topic falls on. Anyway, recently for the past 3 weeks I've been attacked by the spirit of unbelief and this is causing me to doubt God and his Word, thus I'm not able to seek refuge in him, as I constantly...

    Extremely Unloved

    It seems like everyone I'm close to, including God, doesn't really care about me. They want to spend time with everyone else but me. It's like I'm the last priority in their lives and I feel extremely unloved. I know God says He loves me, but it seems like He doesn't care about my needs anymore...
