  • 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.

    What is the definition of faith

    Faith in the purest sense is the ceasing of resistance, even when there’s no physical evidence, when the other evidence is present – the other evidence is physical, proof. Not feeding ourselves on what God hasn’t done. Faith in it’s purest form is the absence of resistance. Faith doesn’t deny...

    aunt stage four breast cancer: please pray for her

    Hi everyone. I feel the urgency in my request for prayer can only be properly understood with a quick background: Last year, my family and I lost three family members consecutively. First, my Godfather who passed away suddenly, secondly my 39 year old cousin who was sick from a liver disease...

    I'm Writing a Book

    For those of you who don't know me, I've been on CF since 2006. I write on Daily Devotions, under Christian Growth (Christians only). Recently the Lord Jesus has had me open up and talk about my life as the spouse of a sex addict, and now he is leading me to write a book on this subject, and to...

    Journal Entry 1/9/18

    This is not my typical post, but it what the Lord gave me to share with you this evening: Journal 1/9/18, 11:01 p.m. – Wow! So, Rick (my husband) told me this morning that he gave his heart to the Lord, and that he made him Lord of his life. He acknowledged to me that he had never done that...

    I Have Days

    Do you have days when you feel absolutely overwhelmed by what is happening in your lives, and/or in your marriages? I know that I have days when I am strong in the Lord, and I have days when I feel weak and vulnerable. I have days when I feel like I can conquer the world, and I have days, too...

    God is Weary

    This morning I feel very tired. My eyes are heavy, and I am fighting off going back to sleep. I am tired partially because I probably did not get an adequate amount of sleep, but I am also tired emotionally over certain situations going on in my life which seem to have no end to them in sight...

    Time... one thing we cannot change!

    So... what do you do when you cannot rewind time? I heard a preacher say something that is so simple yet filled me with fear. He said " There is something in life that always moves forward, you cannot slow it down, you cannot stop it, you cannot rewind it no matter how much you pray and cry and...

    Waves of the Soul

    Is it just me or, do you sometimes feel awesome about yourself! You feel like you are sailing on a boat on a beautiful sunny day! Sky is a deep, beautiful, rich blue. Clouds are white as snow! Temperature is perfect about 75-80 degrees! You feel confident and strong and you feel like you can do...

    Death Of Brian Deneke

    Yesterday was a day where we lost you twenty years ago, when a man decided to run you over twice simply because you were dressed in punk. A city/court defended the man who bullied and killed you, saying that you were a bad person simply for what you wore and the music that you listened to. His...

    Enslaved Again?

    Do you lay claims to being a follower of Jesus Christ? Does your walk match your talk? Or are you, behind closed doors, someone else entirely? The Lord Jesus led me to read Galatians 4 (Select vv. NASB). However, at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature...

    Carried Away?

    The Lord Jesus led me to read 2 Peter 3 (Select vv. NASB). When we, as believers in Jesus Christ, trust in Him to be Lord and Savior of our lives, we are delivered both from slavery to sin and the punishment of sin, which is spiritual death, which is eternity without God in the fires of hell...

    Christian Topics-Faith, Hope, Circumstances-Romans 4:18-21

    Christian Topics-Faith, Hope, Circumstances-Romans 4:18-21 Believing God’s promises in faith, for a change in our circumstances, is not a denial of what is happening in our circumstances, and is not a denial of the obvious facts. We can see clearly, that Abraham was aware of the fact, that the...

    The Sun Will Rise... Just Not Yet.

    "Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise." - Les Miserables Hoo boy this quote and waiting on the Lord are literally the only things getting me through the catastrophe that has been these past few months.
