  • 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.

    Niceness vs Redemption...

    “Niceness — wholesome, integrated personality — is an excellent thing. But we must not suppose that even if we succeeded in making everyone nice we should have saved their souls. A world of nice people, content in their own niceness, looking no further, turned away from God, would be just as...

    God is Able

    My testimony is a very tough for me to share, but my earliest memory being a child was full of abuse not by family, but from external sources. I was sexually abused as a child and lost my virginity when I was about 9 years old from then on out I was full of extreme lust all the way through my...

    Isaiah 52-53 ~ Israel or The Messiah? - part 3

    For a third and last time, I'd like to look at the case put forward for believing that the 'My Servant' of Isaiah 52:13 refers to the people of Israel collectively and not to the Messiah as an individual. We have used this article - http://www.thehebrewcafe.com/articles/isaiah_52-54.pdf - as...
