  • 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.

    The Devil is chained, because he refuses the cross' weight, but embraces the world's weight

    Hi there, So yes Revelation 20:1 talks about an angel with the key to the pit. The reason he is able to chain the Devil is that the Devil refuses the weight of the cross, not having the key to the sign that is on it. Without the weight of the cross, he cannot escape the weight of Hell, which is...

    Images of the Beast (why you should be open to the opinion there are more than one)

    Hi there, So the Lord sort of showed me all of a sudden, that expecting one image of the Beast is biblical, but that historically the reference to an image of the Beast is open to context. For example Facebook, is an image of the Beast as relates toward friendship. It is an image of the Beast...

    Has the war between Satan and Michael happened already?

    Revelation 12 7 And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer. 9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan...

    Are no wars justified?

    I posted this in Justinian's instead of Basil's so that debate on this issue can be had, if there are differing sides that is. In my research into Orthodoxy the view I have commonly found expressed is the following: War is inherently an evil. There are no just wars like in the Western...

    War, God and Population Control

    Hi Family, Do you believe God condones some biblical battles to control the population? Do you think it is a means to an end? If we have free will why does God intervene? Is the a biblical basis for war? ~Natsumi Lam~

    In Guns We Trust

    In guns we trust, in technology we trust, in the military we trust, in money and power we trust, but in God we don’t really trust at all. When trouble is at the door Christians are the first to stockpile guns, ammo, and food, and then they sit in their little groups and talk about love, peace...

    War and Atheism is incompatible. Why?

    Well, how can you tell, that there is no God, if you have not proved, that life without God is even possible? I'll bet, you will run to Church in hard time, and leave the Church in easy time: Hawaii missile-scare fills churches, sends confession lines out the door There are two Gods in Bible...

    Christian "religion" and War.

    Christianity = faith, hope and trust in Jesus as Savior. It is devoid of religious structure. It is not a political subdivision. It has zero to do with war. Christians at war is an oxymoron. Christians are the Body of Christ. We get dragged into war because of the failure of our culture to...

    Stay Awake!

    Saturday, November 4, 2017, 11:00 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Just Are You.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Revelation 16:13-15 (NASB). And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three...

    Govt. a minister of God regarding Non Violence

    For those who believe a Christian is justified in fighting for their country; how do you reconcile that you would be fighting against God's minister? Romans 13:1-7states that the governing authority is a minister of God. Going to battle or war is going against another governing authority which...

    Why would we be thrown in the middle of a war?

    I do not identify as a Christian. I hardly identify as anything outside of the terminology of "Human Being." With that being said, as a human being I am concerned with the current state of the world and where it is headed. Many people make correlations between the current state of the world and...

    There is only one real conflict

    It is between war and peace. 1. War is expensive. At the end of the Vietnam War the US dollar was taken off the gold standard. A big change from when JFK became President and the National Debt was rapidly closing in on zero. 2. Wars make enemies. 3. Our weapons industry is so big we don't...

    The war has never ended for the Jews. From the moment they were chosen, satan started to annihilate them. They didn’t ask to be chosen but kind of ended up that way without even a debate or a referendum. Of course, all this has to do with when Abram was called by God to start a nation that would...
