  • 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.

    A significant insight, into the change God wants - in the World

    Hi there, So this will seem very basic, like "of course" that's the way it is: who would have thought it would be any different - but for years I have laboured under the impression, that something far more complicated was at work. What am I talking about? I'm talking about just how much change...

    Did Noah, let a pair of serpents, on the Ark?

    Hi, I have to admit, it is fairly difficult coming up with your own theological controversy - I have only really managed two coins of thought that relate to the Bible (besides Eschatology) and this is the second. The point is: God really leaves it up to you, to do the interpreting (if you don't...

    A reiteration of a prayer request( very important to me)

    First and most importantly I want to give praise to GOD for answering prayer to restore a friendship and a softening of a coworkers heart. There is much more progress needed but there has been a start or seeming an positive step forward on being on good terms with this individual. In spite of...

    Love, written by Karl May

    Love by Karl May (1843-1912) A great word was written by the Lord, How bigger there is no other, second there is: If you want to find love, you must also love yourself, Because only receiving love loves again. And if it remained without a counter-donation, It is the power of God, The ones out of...

    If I consistently show you, that I am adapting, but the adaptations are not from a monkey, then...?

    Hi there, So yes, I feel like any place would be as good as any other to proclaim, that I have made my "peace" with 'Evolution'. I understand that without Evolution, my definition as a human, would not be as "pronounced" and I understand that what I think is "pronounced" may not last to the...

    Reconciliation of relationships

    I struggle with social anxiety disorder or (SAD), that within of itself presents many challenges. As well as many odd, weird monuments? interactions with others. Typically as a result of being so uncomfortable within that situation. My main concern and where my prayer request is to be...

    Do I really know God well enough?

    So I thought I had found and knew God my entire life, but my family weren't very good people, and more than likely just used Christianity to make themselves look good. They've taught me a lot of what I already know about God and Christianity, but now I'm sort questioning and losing faith on who...

    Design implies that the optimum, can be achieved, no matter what state the species is in

    Hi there, So it seems like forever, since I have set out to understand this, but now it is finally in sight. The advantage of design, is species wide. Why? Because design implies that the optimum for the species, can be achieved no matter what state the species is in. A newly conceived giraffe...

    Once saved always saved, or abundantly saved no matter what is always?

    Hi there, So yes, I think I have an answer to the problem, of whether you can lose your salvation and for how long you can keep it, all in the one answer! We are abundantly saved! That means there is an abundance of ways to respond to salvation, right to the end! The concept of abundant...

    What is our generation going to do, with the leadership in its midst?

    Hi there, I've been watching for some time, now, wondering where the leadership of my generation is going to come from. I mean, every generation has its leaders, and those leaders have styles and they get there (to leadership) by heeding the older generation - learning from them, trusting them...

    Bad Dream/OCD Thoughts

    I have dealed with intrusive thoughts for a while now and I know that God forgives me, but for some reason I had a bad dream about accepting the mark of the beast last night. It scares me because I would never want to accept it in real life. The dream lead to intrusive thoughts about the same...

    The world feels threatened, from beginning to end

    Hi there, So I realise you may be struggling spiritually; and you may be wondering "Why do people attack me?" I just want to say 'you'll get through it', nothing has tempted you but that which is common to man (1 Cor 10:13) - these threats you feel, this doubt you have, is all because the world...

    [MOVED] It's like I'm addicted to the approval of the Church?

    Hi there, The Kitchen Sink, seems like a good place to put this: I really don't think it fits anywhere, to be addressed to the Church in General, but not some or others, depending on how its interpreted. The question is simple: "Am I addicted to the approval of the Church?" I suppose if it came...

    The Devil doesn't want converts to believe they are chosen and appointed

    Hi there, So I have been a believer for many years now, and I have frequently struggled, with what my faith means. I said the line "Jesus, I make you my Lord and Saviour" in direct contradiction to the verse "you did not choose me" John 15:16-17. The systemic problem then, went back to what...

    What are you going to do, when the only thing you are afraid of is evolving in to Hell?

    Hi there, So there is very little about this, in the Bible: evolving in to Hell - but there are scriptures which point in its direction. Mark 9:43 "if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you, for it is better to enter into life lame or maimed, than to be cast into Hell"...

    EVOLUTION - X (A helpful mnemonic to remember?)

    Hello! I am new to ChristianForums.com so please accept my apologies if this has been planted in the wrong place (perhaps a moderator can correctly place it for me)...but I wanted to share with you a video which has helped me to remember common sense objections to Darwinian Evolution, in the...

    Technically, God propels "Creation"

    Hi there, So a useful truth for developing a relationship with the Lord, is consider God's creative relationship, with Creation. The Bible sets out that God is separate to Creation (that He is hovering above it), and that He moves from there to an affirmation of what was created, according to...

    Ephesians 2:8

    Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (NOTE: Sins required payment is DEATH.) Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (NOTE: ALL are sinners & deserve DEATH) Eph 2:8 For "by grace" "are ye saved"...
