  • 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

“If the Son shall set you free, then you shall be really be free” (John 8.32). Do you believe this? Do you really believe that your are really free? Have you become discouraged due to failure? Jesus set us free to be free (Galatians 5.1)

:bow: We were insolvent, and placed on the auction block to be sold as a slave. Time and time again we was bought and sold, beat-up and broken down, tattered and torn, downtrodden and disowned, weary and worn. Until the Prince came to us and gave all he had to “pay more than equivalent and give up all our debts cancelled.” We were set free. Not only emancipated as slaves, but also adopted as children. Unlike a slave, children live in the Father’s house forever. (Galatians 2.4, Henry 18??)



We are free from all curse and condemnation, free from prejudices, false notions, and lies. The accuser and adversary can not defeat the truth, through the Truth we have been set free and shall be set free as the Spirit leads us into all truth. No longer do we have the obligation of moral perfection, to obey every last tittle of the Law. For the law is being written on our hearts; and our minds are becoming enlightened and enlarged. The righteous man falls down sevens times and rises up again, and though we fall, His love does not fail. We are not to live under perfection, but under grace, for his glory, and our freedom. So let us not choose bondage that comes through moral perfection, but grace that brings life to it’s fullest. For Jesus came that we may have life and have it to the full.
