  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    A sign of the end: there are different kinds of raptures

    Hi there, So this will be a new concept to you, at first, but after you have given it thought: it will give you broader spiritual horizons. A man can be raptured differently to a child; a child can be raptured differently to an animal. There are different orders and strengths and durations...

    Church, Trafficking, & Foster Care

    " Is it not to share your bread with the hungry and bring the homeless poor into your house; when you see the naked, to cover him, and not to hide yourself from your own flesh?" --Isaiah 58:7 (emphasis added by me) This video speaks from a Christian perspective on the rampant trafficking &...

    Is your Bible a bad one?

    - So, why post a Thread about "bad bibles" in the "Deeper Fellowship", section? Well, if we have as our Thread's context "deeper fellowship with God", then that comes by having deeper fellowship with God, and God as THE WORD, ....and the word is the divine place regarding deeper fellowship...

    How to understand : Grace

    - To understand Grace correctly, is to understand Salvation correctly, is to understand the Blood Atonement correctly. Notice this verse.... "the finished WORK, of Jesus, on the Cross". Now, who is Jesus? Jesus is God. So, that is GOD on the Cross, dying for the sin of the world...and this...

    Man, the Fees

    I was going to sell all my guns and buy one. It’s a bad time to sell on Armslist because they are converting everyone to Premium- for money to weed out scammers. Then I can get a certain amount of money together. But it costs over $150 for fees here. And reloading for old calibers is over...

    Heavyness and worry

    So we can all agree this has certainly been a year that has laid a lot on us and been quite the challenge mentally physically and spiritually. There have been so many things to hit us hard. In the US we of course have our up in coming election that really could pivot the way our country goes...

    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...

    Thoughts whilst shooting pool

    Sometimes, I just really want to shoot pool. No worries about score, or rules, or even aiming...just throw some balls on the table, grab a cue, and start hitting them around. Sometimes, they make it in a pocket. I just find the sound of pool balls hitting each other very satisfying, and...

    How to have hope in heaven?

    I have noted that many people acknowledge death and not eternal life. Sometimes I wake up from the middle of a nap and the first thing that washes over me is a fear of death. I imagine it being a never ending state where I am not awake but instead trapped and unable to move and think as I am...

    Not pre-destined for Hell.

    The question of the 'predestined elect", is always, generally, a totally confused original concept, because most of the people who preach or teach this idea, are about as confused as theologically confused could possibly be, .... and most of these hardened heretics are the most devout (self...
