  • 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.

  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

trials & tribulations

    So Jesus Christ Has First Place

    “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things...

    Sufferings Have a Purpose

    “Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. Therefore...

    Do Not Lose Heart

    “Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which...

    The Testing of Your Faith

    “In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the...

    From My Distress I Called

    5 From my distress I called upon the Lord; The Lord answered me and set me in a large place. 6 The Lord is for me; I will not fear; What can man do to me? 15 The sound of joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; The right hand of the Lord does valiantly. 19 Open to me the...

    Broken and Regretful

    When we are born into this world, we are born with sin natures, in the image of Adam, the first man God created, and the first man to sin against God. We are separate from God, unable within ourselves to be made righteous in the sight of God. We sin, by nature, and we are destined to hell. So...

    In God I Have Put My Trust

    “Be gracious to me, O God, for man has trampled upon me; Fighting all day long he oppresses me. 2 My foes have trampled upon me all day long, For they are many who fight proudly against me. 3 When I am afraid, I will put my trust in You. 4 In God, whose word I praise, In God I have put my trust...

    Don't Be Anxious

    The Testing of Our Faith

    “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

    My Fortress and My Deliverer

    “For the director of music. Of David the servant of the Lord. He sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said: “’I love you, Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my...

    Hope for The Hurting

    There is hope for the hurting For whom Christ they are serving Misfortune undeserving With trials so disturbing No promises of relief No assurance they’ll be brief Even if Christ they believe And forgiveness they receive Is this meant to be a joke? At misfortune do I poke? Have I now, now have...

    Theatre

    Drama, drama, noise they’re making, Theatre, all for the taking, Cast their spells and brew their vermin, Cook their stew for all who’re list’ning. Trouble, trouble, always something, Worst is first and lies they’re mixing, Countless hours on same subject, Drive it home, that is the object...

    Life Has Its Trials

    Life has its trials, sometimes they are many, And sometimes it feels as some folks not got any. We never do know, though, what others go through, For we don’t live with them, don’t know what they do. But many are those filled with heartaches galore, While so many others their pain they ignore...

And let steadfastness have its full effect, that...

    We Will Sing

    I think that when things are going well in our lives that it is easy to sing praises to God and to thank him for all his many blessings to us. Yet, when life kicks us and knocks us down; when severe trials come our way; when we are faced with great persecution and rejection from those we love...

    I Will Not Cave

    What’s weighing on my heart tonight? So many things that just aren’t right. A list of them, I have not made. But into them, I will not cave. I give them all to Christ alone Who for my sins He did atone. How beautiful the love of Him Who cares for me – not on my own. I worry not, oh, come what...

    The Experiences That Made Us Who We Are

    “For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the...
