  • 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.

    Christ Over Virus Infections And Disease - Is It The End Of The World?

    The Bible that tells us to occupy till He comes also tells us to look on for the coming of the Lord. Doing one without the other makes you an unbalanced believer and it is exactly the scenario that we have in the body of Christ today. For those of us who are wont to quickly lookout for the end...

    The Glorious Gathering

    OK, if it ever happens in my lifetime, I can imagine God putting me through the opening of the seven seals in heaven and blowing of the seven trumpets in heaven, while mightily delivering me through it. But I’m not sure God would put me here through the pouring out of the seven bowls on whole...

    Subjective Reality

    If you have a disorder such as psychosis or schizophrenia, I would take caution reading into speculations such as this. I am truly a believer of God, and as it is said in the bible, there is a spiritual realm. The evil forces within this realm will do whatever they can to make people question...

    Are We Approaching The End Of The Age?

    With so many events taking place around the world (with greater frequency) many suppose the Lord will be coming back to rapture His Body (the Church) any day now. This is the same question the disciple’s asked Jesus while He was still here on earth. “When will these things happen, and what will...

    The rapture means temporary popularity with the world; but the rupture means suicide for many

    Hi there, So Paul said we will be changed and meet the Lord in the air, but I want you to think about something that we must be ready for - even if the Lord tarries: suicide. If Newton's law that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, is true, we must consider the rupture...

    Secret Rapture?

    The simple fact is this; you CANNOT arrive at the doctrine of a secret rapture of the Church by Scriptural exegesis. Quite simply, it is not there! In fact, a secret rapture of the Church would indicate a first 'second' coming of Christ.

    Who believes we are in the latter days and that the Rapture will happen in our lifetime?

    I apologize if this question has already been asked. I am wondering if anyone believes that we are in last days based on prophecies and why. If you do not think so, I would also like to know why you think this. Thanks in advance!

    Crumpled Clothes on Sidewalk after Rapture?

    A number of movies based on the idea of a future Rapture show crumpled clothes on a sidewalk or other places after the person disappears. This goes along with driver-less cars, pilot-less planes and so forth. This was done in the 2014 Left Behind movie with Nicholas Cage, for instance, and was...

    Left Behind

    Romans 1:28-32 ESV And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are...

    God Protects His People on Earth

    3 Now the glory of the God of Israel went up from above the cherubim,where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. Then the Lord called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing kit at his side4 and said to him, “Go throughout the city of Jerusalem and put a mark on the...

    1000 years in heaven.

    Christ takes all the saints to heaven for 1000 years at the 2nd coming. -- "I will come again" John 14. the 1000 years are literal - But it is not where Christ reigns on Earth because Revelation 19 says all the wicked are killed when Christ comes again (second coming) - and John 14 says that...

    You have to watch that Rapture mindset

    What do YOU expect Jesus will do when He returns? Catch us all up and kill everyone else? That is the same mindset that the Jews had when He came first time. Well He will catch up the church. If you do not believe in the 1,000 years you must believe He will destroy everyone else. The purpose...

    When will we be "taken up"?

    I was raised on pre-tribulation rapture teaching and I still listen to David Jeremiah on my way to work every morning. He taught on the book of Revelation a few months ago and restated the truth of the scripture 1 Thess. 5:9 - that God has not appointed believers to wrath. I was taught that...

    Rapture Top Dogs Admit no Proof Exists

    Anyone looking for direct scripture support of the famed Pre-Trib Rapture will come up empty handed. Admits Rapture heavyweight John Walvoord in his book called The Rapture Question (Findlay, OH:1957, p.148). He agrees with G. E. Ladd saying; "Ladd, in contrast to Jones, concedes that...

    The meaning of Revelation

    I know contemporary Christians from Jehova's Witnesses to Evangelicals put a great emphasis on the apocalypse/rapture( millennialism).

    RAPTURE 2023: Prophecy, Church, And The Nation of Israel- Last Generation

    Israel became a nation in 1948. Last generation beginning in 1948? Will many of those born after 1948 see the Rapture? Psalm 90:10 - The days of our life are 70-80 years, average being 75-add 75 to 1948, we get 2023. (Rapture) It took Noah 120 years to build the Ark, the Ark is a type and...

    The superannuated Armageddon

    For countless years people have screamed it's the end and jumped off cliffs, spires, skyscrapers etc just to avoid the possibility of such a fate. Even now millions watched the skies waiting to see the imminent fire and brimstone rain down upon us. So what do you think? Are we at the end of...

    Be Thankful for the Coming Pretribulation Rapture

    For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we...
