  • 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.

    Is Heaven where we finally become invisible?

    God is nothing (no thing), which is why we can't see Him...He is invisible... We can't even see heaven-His dwelling place. So, when we are no longer visible...when we are no longer a "thing" to be pointed at... Is it then, when we have arrived? 2 Corinthians 4:18 "So we fix our eyes not on...

    Going to Heaven, or not...

    At some times I can use a bit of confirmation that I'm doing the right things that Jesus ordered, as you may have noticed. That the signs point in the right direction, with an eye on the afterlife i.e. the Real Life. In my working life I developed a lot of 'scorecards' and now I found an...

    Think About It

    Philippians 3:17-19 ESV Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us. For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their...

    If angels fell from heaven will we be able to fall from heaven as well?

    I was thinking this morning that satan and demons must’ve been, forgive me for saying, complete idiots having been in the presence of God Himself and yet still decided to rebel against God. This led me to the question if they could rebel against God having known Him while being in Heaven is it...

    Was once in Homosexual relationship. Now what?

    Hello christian forums. When I was in my early 20's I was in a homosexual relationship with another man. It was a sexual relationship. We did horrible things. But that life is long past me. I have moved on from that. My question is, can I still go to heaven? Am I still a good human being...

    Christian music and discerning Biblical (or not) messages

    I've been getting into Christian music lately and I'm hoping to focus on that which has a Biblical message. One question I have is about praying for the heavens to open. Stephen saw the heavens open right before he was martyred. And there are other references to heaven opening in the Bible...

    I'm confused about Heaven: help!

    hello everyone, I just became a born again Christian on may 7th. It was the best day of my life. I was reading revelations and I think my idea of Heaven was wrong please help. From my understanding if we die before the second coming we go to Heaven for a little bit then get a new body, after...

    Talking To Dad

    You probably have been told like me that one is supposed to as a committed Christian, have a "quiet time" before you leave for work in the morning or start on your activities for the day. This involves reading the Bible and praying on your own in the "presence of God." I had done this for many...

    2 Corinthians 5 vs the World

    The world can really mess with our minds. Following God in this world is not easy. Following God never looks like what the world says it looks like. Fruit is used from the beginning to the end of the Bible. Taking that fruit from the one tree God said not to take from , got us in this mess...

    Book of Joel

    In the Book of Joel we see “the day of the Lord ,” many times. Everyday belongs to the Lord. We are no different than the people in this Book , they forgot and we have forgot this. The whole Bible shows us the past and leads us to the future. Joel 2 28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that...

    What Do YOU Want in Heaven?

    What do you hope you get to do in heaven that scripture does not explicitly state or imply you get to do? Please don't answer with anything obviously sinful or contradictory to what is in scripture. These are your personal wants and hopes. Since there is only so much we know about heaven...

    *Catholic Only* Good material for seeking first the Kingdom of God

    I'm still recovering from all of these anger issues, and scrupulosity and such, but I'd like to try and move on. I'd my fellow-Catholics here to provide me with good materials, (mostly online articles video, though maybe a few good books) on Heaven, and seeking first the Kingdom of God. Does...

    Catholic prayer request: Seeking first the Kingdom of God more.

    "Seek ye therefore first the kingdom of God, and his justice, and all these things shall be added unto you." -St. Matthew 6:33 DR I'm starting to think that I need to focus more on the Heaven and Eternal Loving Union with God, I think worldliness is holding back a lot of my efforts. There are...

    Please Pray For My Family!

    Hello All. It seems as if today, or very soon, my grandmother is likely going to pass away. Although I come from a family of atheists, she is the only other Christian(apart from me). Please pray that she passes over in peace. Thank you

    Heaven

    I used to think of Heaven in a worldly sense, like many do, oh I can't wait to go to heaven and have all my needs desires be met! I don't think it is about me though... It's about Him and His glory. The more I learn of Jesus I really just want to be in Heaven because He is there.... I just...
