  • 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.

    I share this with you in love hoping we can love one another, fear God, and honor our King Jesus as fellow citizens of heaven.

    Is it possible to love according the new commandment, but without the Law?

    Hi there, So by the Law we have a shadow of the Grace to come (letters, paraphrase) but by the Grace that supercedes the Law, we are commanded to love one another - as Jesus does, in principle without destroying the Law (as He said "Do not think I cam to destroy the Law"). The problem is that...

    Quasichristian Inversion, And Oneness In Christ

    Jesus, Christ, the Lord, asked His Father for a major oneness. He asked that His Father take the eleven faithful disciples, and all others who come to believe in Him through their message, into oneness with Them. We have this in the Gospel of John, chapter 17, verses 20 through 23. And we have...

    Evolution is preferred, even if God is right? Where to go, from here...?

    Hi there, So you will know that I have butted my head against Evolution for a long time, not always getting the theory right, making speculative remarks that come a degree closer to distancing Evolution from the unsuspecting - but now I have hit upon what my real priority should be: God. For...

    Poetry and Speaking with God

    My favorite thing to do in the morning is look to God and say, "Thank you for today. Hopefully it's an amazing day." Many believers do this as well, but one thing that strikes me as being unique from most is I can hear Him when He responds. God and I have developed a strong relationship. I...

    Do Not Be Selfish, But Instead, Love Others In Spite Of What They Say And Do

    "This is the message you have heard from the beginning: We should love one another. Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he slay him? Because his own deeds were evil, while those of his brother were righteous. So do not be surprised, brothers...

I did bad things to 'test' myself and I couldn't...

    I feel so sad because I never have male interest

    I am 23 and I have never been asked out ever in my life before. Men never start conversations or small talk with me unless they have to. And when I go out, men pretty much never hit on me or try to flirt with me. I feel like I will never find someone or fall in love. I feel so undeserving of...
