  • 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.

    If Favor is Shown to the Wicked

    Isaiah 26:1-3 ESV “In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: ‘We have a strong city; he sets up salvation as walls and bulwarks. Open the gates, that the righteous nation that keeps faith may enter in. You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you...

    Gospel Of The Kingdom

    This video traces the origins of the word “gospel” and how it ties the story of the Old Testament together with the story of Jesus and his announcement of God’s kingdom. Jesus brought God’s rule and reign to the world in a very upside-down way, which is the best news you could ask for.

    Where do the dead go? The answers may surprise you :)

    Hello all, as a pastor (by God's grace) the question I hear most often is: "where do the dead go?" The following video was made to answer that question. Here's the summary: the answer depends on 2 main things: 1) whether the person was justified or not 2) whether that person died before the...

    Need prayers for debilitating illness

    Hello to everyone and I hope you're all well. I have been struggling with illness for many years. It has been permanent (not easing and there every minute of the day) for at least 2 years. I am always completely exhausted and dizzy. I have regular nausea, sweating and overheating. I am usually...

    True Disciples Tend To The Harvest Daily!

    "Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few." Matthew 9:37 The true follower of Christ does not dwell on "going to church on the weekend." Instead, we who are truly in Christ will serve the kingdom by tending to the harvest every day of the week just as...

    It's going to be hotter than our souls can stand, but we will be delivered!

    Hi there, Praise: be to God, that though the end is destroyed in fire - yes, even fire so hot that our souls cannot stand it - yet we will be able to stand, for our faith is in Jesus and He will deliver those souls. The Big bang will look like a drop in the ocean, compared to the fire that is...

    The Forgotten Covenant?

    Our God is the great covenant God, He who rejoices in making and keeping His promises, who goes so far as to giving His Word made flesh in the form of Jesus Christ, the covenant of salvation for all who believe, sealed in holy blood at Calvary. That His word is held perfect trustworthy and true...

    Press On Toward The Ultimate Prize!

    “Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is...

    The Truth Can Only Come From The Heart!

    “Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy-seven times! Because of this, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his...

    Understand The Message Of The Kingdom!

    Jesus explained the parable of the sower this way, "Consider, then, the parable of the sower: When anyone hears the message of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path. The seed sown on rocky...

    It Is The Truth That Will Set One Free!

    Which statement is correct: "If we gain eternal life, we will become a servant of heaven" or "If we become a servant of heaven, we will gain eternal life?" At first glance these may seem to say the same thing, but a closer look shows that one statement is based on what Jesus taught us and the...

    The Impact of How We Live

    Luke 12:49-53 ESV “I came to cast fire on the earth, and would that it were already kindled! I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how great is my distress until it is accomplished! Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on in...

    For Many Are Called, But Few Are Chosen

    “Once again, Jesus spoke to them in parables: “The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to call those he had invited to the banquet, but they refused to come. Again, he sent other servants and said, ‘Tell those who have been invited...

    Are You Sure You’re Ready For The Return Of The Lord?

    “As they were walking along the road, someone said to Jesus, “I will follow You wherever You go.” Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head.” Then He said to another man, “Follow Me.” The man replied, “Lord, first let me go...

    It Is All About Having A Personal Relationship With Jesus!

    Many people believe that becoming a “Christian” will give them citizenship in the kingdom of heaven, but in the end many will find out that they were greatly mistaken. “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in...

    In an Instant = Forever

    - The day we are saved........the very day before, what were we doing? Were you living for God the day before you were saved? NO. You were enjoying SIN. What does this tell us? It tells us that on Saturday we are sinning and enjoying it, and on our way to HELL. John 3:36 Then the very next...

    Saints

    In some ways, the phrase "favorite Saint" is a bit humorous, as all the born again are "Saints". God has no favorites , He just has those who do more for Him, and understand more from Him. The Catholic church of course finessed this idea of "Saint" and redefined it and rebranded it as the idea...

    How to "Abide" in Christ

    - To "wrongly abide".... is to believe that you keep yourself saved by "abiding" as a self effort. "im doing it, im remaining, im enduring, im abiding"....my effort, myself, its ME doing it.... me, me, me, me, me. In other words...>"by abiding, I keep myself saved". This is "self saving"....this...

    When You Are Afraid Of Your Father's House(8) - The System Of The World

    The system of the world is governed by Satan. An understanding of this simple thought and revelation from the word will change your perspective of the world! For this is not an assertion that does not have it's backing in the word. I like to show that to you from scriptures because it's...
