  • 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.

    Prayer is the key

    Praying is the best way to communicate with our Heavenly Father. These are trying times, and I for one, find that prayer along with reading the word gives me comfort. I pray for everything. I pray for guidance in life choices, and I pray for help in personal areas of weakness. When I am having a...

    I'm not racist, YOU are racist.

    Hello everyone, I was having a very busy day at work one evening where we had multiple customers to serve at once. We were trying to serve them all as efficiently as we could with there only being two or three of us. It was later in the evening and we so happened to not see a couple women who...

    Does what we wear when we pray matter?

    If someone prays to God in private, does it matter what we wear? If our clothes have a tiny stain, burn mark, tear, that sort of thing, does God reject our prayer? Do we even have to wear clothes to pray? I know it would probably be disrespectful to pray in dirty clothes (not as in wearing them...

    Fighting the Battle

    Ephesians 6:10-11 ESV “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.” Boy, we are definitely seeing the schemes of the devil run rampant these days. He is fighting a fierce war...

    Devoting physical items to God

    In the Bible, it is mentioned that you can devote things to God (Leviticus?), when I found this out, I prayed to God, praying to devote everything in my life that I could to him, but I'm terrified that if I can devote things to God, they could be also devoted to satan, I'm terrified that if I...

    I'm worried my prayers haven't been heard due to unintentional sin

    I recently realised that I may have been unintentionally living in sin. I confessed, but I'm worried that it may have cut me off from the Lord. I know it says in the Bible that if you're living in sin your prayers won't be heard, and I'm worried that all my prayers of the past month won't have...

    Could use a bit of prayer *UPDATED*

    *Updated, Praise report* I can pray for others, and have seen many amazing results to God moving in others. I however, do not seem to be able to pray for myself. I have a tendency, not of complacency, but of acceptance, that I do not seem to be able to reach through. I find it debilitating...

    Prayers for Jeff Bezos & all the wealthy

    We often hear about the insane amount of wealth that Bezos & others have. Yet how often do we think of praying for them? Imagine how the world could change if every Christian shared their wealth, and prayed for others to do the same! Less hate & stress would fill our lives, if instead of...

    Luke 11:5-8 NASB Then He said to them, “Suppose one of you has a friend, and goes to him at midnight and says to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; and from inside he answers and says, ‘Do not bother me...

    Jesus' odd selection of the Apostles

    A story with a story, than a talk on Scripture! ~~~~~ I just got done flipping through a biker magazine. The jokes were crude, the pictures of women are rather revealing, half the ads are for bars & strip clubs, and so on. But to really follow Jesus, should I have simply set down the...
