  • 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.

    Wherein is our trust?

    Wherein is our trust? Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find someone that endures sound doctrine. Most of those who allege to believe in Christ tend tol heap up teachers to themselves according to their own lusts, tickling the ear. They prefer to turn away their ears from the truth and...

    A species' members all face the same selection pressure, which is better: full response or halved?

    Hi there, So this thread is going to expose my bias, to a significant degree: because basically I feel like a choice should be made, even with little reason to change anything. I'll give you the example in the thread title: a species' members all face the same selection pressure, should they...

    Let's see: if Evolutional potential for a place was used up, you would gamble with mutation?

    Hi there, So the hypothetical here is: the potential for Evolution being used up - as in all resources for Evolution being taken up - you would gamble with mutation, to motivate a change in locale? The luck you got from the gamble (with mutation) would be your best bet? Like you don't even...

    Evolutionists: no idea is so good, that it can't be messed up in practice (receive?)

    Hi there, So this simple truth was on television, and I thought it was quite apt: What are you doing about that, in the context of Evolution? I thought about it for a moment, and imagined one of you saying "that's what we mean by mutation: when something mutates, it is getting messed up", but...

    The Dove, will ascend to higher heights - but will not reveal Himself doing so

    Hi there, So this is a Word for this hour, in the Church: the Dove will ascend to higher heights - but will not reveal Himself doing so. We will have to follow after Him, until we are in Him, at that higher point. This is what is meant by meeting the Lord in the air (1 Thessalonians 4:17), but...

    I Will Not Cave

    An Original Work / April 7, 2021 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...

    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...

    All theology is this: give your throne, to the Holy Spirit *and make it His*

    Hi there, So yes, I realised something profound about scripture and theology and revelation: when we become believers, we begin to repent, but when we become mature believers, we begin to trust the Holy Spirit's rule. The best way to honour the Holy Spirit's "rule", is to allow Him to take...

    Unthinkable Compassion

    Luke Chapter 6: 27 “But to you who are willing to listen, I say, love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you. 28 Bless those who curse you.

    Stop Worrying!

    Here is a message of hope and encouragement in a time of trouble and in the midst of the storm: "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the...

    You....Please...just say what’s really on your mind.

    I am tired of people pretending perfection in their lives. It is life through Instagram. Even those who you really know and still see this side of them that is all so well manipulated. Why can’t someone just be raw with me? Why not show all their imperfections, worries....their messy side? I am...

    Do Not Worry!

    Jesus said, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.” Matthew 6:25 He was speaking to those who are His disciples, He truly does not want us to worry about the things we cannot control and yet need here in this...

    God is in Control

    So, the Lord put the song in my mind, “Have Thine Own Way, Lord,” and the passage of Scripture was in Job 37. So, I read the passage, and I was encouraged by it, but then I asked the Lord what he wanted me to do with it. And I sensed he had another video talk for me to do, so that is what I did...

    Heavyness and worry

    So we can all agree this has certainly been a year that has laid a lot on us and been quite the challenge mentally physically and spiritually. There have been so many things to hit us hard. In the US we of course have our up in coming election that really could pivot the way our country goes...

    Delight Yourself in The Lord

    Psalms 37:1-2 ESV “Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers! For they will soon fade like the grass and wither like the green herb.” How would you define an evildoer? Certainly, anyone who commits sin does evil, but the context is not of those who may...

    “One act of trust at such moments gives greater glory to God than whole hours passed in prayer filled with consolations.”- St. Faustina This is definitely worth a listen. Right now, and for the past day or so, I've been praying for my friend who's really bad at replying to things efficiently...

    Delivered From Fear

    Psalm 34:4-7 ESV “I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed. This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encamps...
