  • 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

    Idols and God Don't Mix

    “Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. I speak as to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say. The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one bread...

    Living Water

    “On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, ‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.

    They Do Not Honor God

    “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and...

    One Thing You Lack

    “A ruler questioned Him, saying, ‘Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?’ And Jesus said to him, ‘Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. You know the commandments, “Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor your...

    You Have to Want God More than Your Sin

    I am reading in 1 Corinthians 10:1-13. The Israelites who escaped Egypt wandered in the wilderness for 40 years before a remnant of them got to go into the Promised Land. Nevertheless, with most of them God was not pleased, and so they were overthrown in the wilderness. And they did not get to...

    Seek Good and Not Evil

    I am reading in Amos 5. God’s people had fallen due to their idolatries and their other sins, and so God was giving them counsel to seek him, and that they would live. But they were not to seek other avenues to rescue them. They were to seek the Lord and live, lest the Lord bring judgment upon...

    The Other Side of Love

    I have been reading in the Psalms the last few days, and I have been sharing what the Lord is teaching me through these psalms as lessons that can be applied to our lives today.

    Christ's Dismissal

    [This was originally written and posted online Thursday, December 6, 2018, five years ago. It bears repeating yearly.] So Jesus again said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
