  • 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.

    Hello! Some say that the Sabbath is an eternal law that was practiced by Adam and Eve and should still be practiced now under the New Testament. Others say that it was a temporal law that started with the time of Moses and ended under the New Testament with Christ. With this in mind, I'd like to...

    Nehemiah: Building Walls And Facing Opposition

    Today's message at church examined the opposition that Nehemiah faced when building Jerusalem's walls. Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the Ammonite were the main characters leading this opposition but even Geshem the Arab was in on it. The first we hear from them is in Chapter 2 vs 10...

    Opinion: How Fake News Nearly Halted Construction of the Wall
