  • 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.

    Mikvah - Purifying - Baptism

    Mikvah means a "pool" or "gathering" of fresh water. Mosaic law mandated many ceremonial water purification rituals/ablutions. To be clear, it wasn't for the purpose bathing. One was to already have bathed, washed his hair, pared his fingernails etc. Other purification rituals required only...

    Birthrights for Sale?

    The Lord Jesus led me to read Hebrews 12 (Select vv. NASB). Pursue peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no one will see the Lord. In our pursuit of peace with all people, we must remember that peace with all people is not to exclude peace with God. In other words, we do...

    THE END IS NEAR!

    I'm nearing the end of my Total Consecration to Jesus through Mary, and it's APOCALYPTIC! Things are getting really intense here, and I could really use your prayers. Soon, I will be no more, than a slave of the Handmaid of the Lord! Amen!
