  • 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

    His Desires now Our Desires

    1 Timothy 2:1-4 ESV “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in...

    In order to make good Christians, we must first make good pagans

    C. S. Lewis, in a letter to a friend: What was true in the middle 20th century when Lewis was writing is even more the case now. Moral relativity is a symptom of a deeper malady: the inability of most Western people to grasp metaphysics of any kind, much less Christian natural law. The...

    Don't Follow After a Lie

    Psalms 40:1-3 ESV “I waited patiently for the LORD; he inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and...

    But Not in Truth Isaiah 48:1, 4, 8 ESV “Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and who came from the waters of Judah, who swear by the name of the Lord and confess the God of Israel, but not in truth or right… “Because I know that you are obstinate...

    A Contradiction Of Belief?

    Whether or not you believe we are in the new covenant or the old covenant, you may believe a contradicting Truth! Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their...

    How Do You Show Your Love To God?

    Can any of you as a believer in Jesus, and of the Father, describe how you love the Lord your God? Deu 6:5 And thou shall love the LORD thy God with all your heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Mat 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy...

    Should we always be honest even if it's not the morally right thing to say?

    Hi everyone, I would be hugely grateful for some advice around an area of uncertainty I'm facing at the moment. I was recently informed that my role at work is being made redundant. From my experience of the on-the-ground nature of the organisation's operations, I have huge reservations around...

    Do Not Be Dull In Your Understanding!

    "Are you still so dull?" He asked. "Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him, because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach and then is eliminated." (Thus all foods are clean.) He continued: "What comes out of a man, that is what...

    Truth: You can not be resurrected, without being still.

    Hi there, So, yes, I have come across this learning, in my bearing forth with the Lord: Scripturally, this is evidenced by the truth that Jesus said "I am the resurrection", He did not say "I will be the resurrection" - as if to say, that it hinged on Him knowing something else or becoming...

    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...

    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...

    True Disciples Are Perfectly United; Churchgoers Are Hopelessly Divided

    Jesus prayed to the Father concerning His true followers, “I have given them the glory You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one—I in them and You in Me—that they may be perfectly united, so that the world may know that You sent Me and have loved them just as You have loved Me” John...

    Why are you Christian?

    I don't ask to question your faith, I ask because you need to be prepared. So why are you a Christian? Is it because you heard a message and thought you couldn't stand to be in hell? Is it because you have been blessed and you want to keep being blessed? Is it because you want to do something...

    The pre-tribulation rapture lie [moved]

    If this post needs to be moved let me know before deleting it thanks. ** edit at like 110 comments or something — disclaimer I’m full of pride and full of sin. I constantly have to ask Jesus for forgiveness. After debating for a few hours or so my pride and sin only increased. I hope the truth...

    When You Are Afraid Of Your Father's House(3) - How Deception Grows

    It will take a lot of maturity in the word to counter the subtlety of the devil, for his deception can be perpetrated using even the most innocent of means to do that. The concerns of others, the thoughts of others, spoken in innocence can be latched upon by the enemy to perpetrate a deception...

    When You Are Afraid Of Your Father's House(deception Is Gaining Ground)

    The power of the enemy lies in the power of deception. When Satan made his first appearance in the garden of Eden, he played his ultimate card: the power of deception. That was what we saw of the enemy in the first three chapters of Genesis and it was enough to change the course of humanity. "...

    Write: "Writing is about to fall, about to fall"

    Dear Friends, The Holy Spirit has come to bring all things to rememberance - this is the command behind His Writing. This gave Him character, that the chosen of the faith be emboldened - they (those words) are for the faithful soul. Now is the time for the needless words (pointless words -...
