• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

Recommendations: find out if:

Is the denomination Trinitarian or Unitarian?

Is the Church located within easy reach?

Does it provide transportation for those who lack it on Sundays when public transportation isn't available in some cities?

Is the worship meditative, studious or charismatic?

Your OP gives a very clear idea of what you consider to be a bad church to attend, some of which are Christian churches. While I agree with the first point, and the second and third point are considerations, our mission here is to help find places for others based on their beliefs, and to answer questions about beliefs and practices of churches - not to say that their beliefs or beliefs of other churches are wrong. Some may be looking for a more contemplative church and others may be looking for a very charismatic Pentecostal Church. Don't poke fun at those churches in this forum. (That said, those points could be reworded in a helpful way. It is good to find out the style of worship and the beliefs on charismatic practices - due to whether that is something a church seeker does or doesn't want, not because you think it's wrong.)

Thanks for the advice. I will edit my posts. My apologies.

Surprises me that the "Christian Church" denies Jesus is the alpha.

I am not denying anything.
I am merely saying that some Churches will be Unitarian and others will be Trinitarian and that it is best to know before attending. If you wish to debate the Trinity with others please note that the unorthodox forum is provided for that purpose.

The reason I mentioned it is because debating of the trinity isn't allowed on any other forums except the unorthodox Christianity and I would be unable to respond to any issues you would bring up and eventually administration would call our attention to it if we did attempt to discuss it here. But thanks for your interest in my thread and my apologies if I offended in any way. God Bless!
