  • 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 Need Unity In The Body Of Christ (the Church)

Furthermore, Jesus prayed a special prayer to the Father imploring His true followers, the Church, to be united as we serve the kingdom of heaven as “one body.”...

    There exists well over 40,000 denominations of Christianity today. 40,000 ways to believe the Christ… and what do we make of this? Was Jesus’ vision about division? Two was a problem that required a Savior to resolve. Yeshua made the two, Gentile and Jew into one. (Ephesians 2:14) He...

    Freedom in Christ

    The book of Romans was not originally written as a book, nor did it originally have chapter and verse divisions. It was written as a letter from Paul to the church (the believers in Jesus) in Rome. And, it was intended to be read in whole, not in segments, I would suspect. So, no matter where we...

    Radical

    I recently moved house to a smaller one than what I had. This meant that a gallon would not go into a pint pot. So I had to go through a lot of "stuff" and get rid of it. I sold some but gave most of it away. God told me to get rid of the past to prepare for the future. One of the reasons for...
