  • 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.

Hello!

I just wanna share an interesting video with you all, Christians and non - Christians. This movie brings up 2 questions that many have asked about Christianity: Why are Jesus the only way to God? If there is a Loving God, why is there so much evil in this world?

Case for Faith - L. Strobel on Vimeo

See this video, and tell me what you think about this answer they gave in this video - If you want!:)

God bless you!

I have the book. In fact, I have two books by this Strobel guy. He claims to be an unbiased investigative journalist and yet he only interviews Christian apologists. I found the answers he gives to be severely lacking. Basically, God allows suffering because people grow and learn from it. What can possibly be learned from cancer and how are we supposed to know when we've learned what God wanted us to learn?

we can learn that Jesus heals, that Jesus does Fathers will, which includes healing.
