  • 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.

    Pre-Tribulation vs. Post-Tribulation Why not both?

    I often here this debate and both sides have scriptures to support their point of view. Why can't both be right? Why can't some Christians be taken at the beginning of the tribulation and some taken at the end of the tribulation? Here's the scenario. At the beginning of the tribulation, some...

    The story of Man, will reach a crucible - this generation shall not pass until...

    Hi there, So I have just been thinking on faith, why I do't have enough, basically and it has dawned on me that I don't understand the times of Man. The times of man are bound by the words of Jesus that "this generation shall not pass until all these things have come to pass" (gospels, from...

    Are the saints taken to heaven at the rapture for the Millennium?

    John 14:1-3 “Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. 3 If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself...

    I've been a christian for some decades now. Came here to look for some referencing to some things I'm looking into. One is regarding the book of Revelation. I've always had a bit of the position that we can never cearly know what it is about until that time has arived, kinda like the Ethiopian...

    The End Of Times: Keep Watch!

    The End of Times: Keep Watch! We know that for the past two thousand years the Church (Body of Christ) has been waiting for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ to usher in the end of days. He is the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end. Jesus told us to be ready, “Therefore keep...

    Could Bullinger Be Right?

    I'd appreciate a good discussion on this verse. See, the masculine word "he" in 2Th 2:7 is intriguing. This is because the Church is feminine. The Holy Spirit is neuter, and government is feminine. All these three are the traditional objects of the Rapture "For the mystery of iniquity doth...

    A sign of the end: there are different kinds of raptures

    Hi there, So this will be a new concept to you, at first, but after you have given it thought: it will give you broader spiritual horizons. A man can be raptured differently to a child; a child can be raptured differently to an animal. There are different orders and strengths and durations...

    "They shall all be taught by God" (Isa.), at God's coming will be "they shall all speak healing"

    Hi there, So there is a context sensitive verse in the gospels, quoted from Isaiah, that they shall all be taught by God - that is, you will not need to explain what you mean, to others, anymore, they shall understand what it means to speak of God (and His teaching). What is interesting is that...

    Do you believe in the “caught up together” event in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17?

    There are a lot of folks who deny the Rapture altogether. They say the word “Rapture” is not in the Bible and thus it means there is no Rapture. I am here to say that there is an event that sounds a lot like the Rapture, but I am going to call it by it's biblical name. The “caught up...

    Changing your mind about prophecy

    Hi all. I recently watched a video about a person who had changed his mind regarding his stance on pre-trib rapture. The video made some interesting points about just how difficult it is to change the way we perceive important, spiritual truths, especially when that change requires us to face...

    You can receive of the rapture, even now - just humble yourself to the mighty Cloud of Witness

    Hi there, So I heard from a guy called Kevin Zadai, that God is preparing us with His angels - waking with each day, to give us insight into Heaven. But it goes further than this: there is one who just had revelation that the Cloud of Witness, is able to speak to us about bringing the Power of...
