  • 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

I cam across this great site on Christian history. The good thing about it is they actually go to many places off the main tourist track to where the biblical events happened. Which brings the bible alive.

The particular episodes I watched was called Acts to Revelations. Which goes through the history of the early church from Penticost, to Pauls missions, Peter and James letyters and finishing with John on Pathmos with Revelations.

They trace the journeys, visit the cites such as the possible places Paul was imprisoned and the cave John lived while writing revelations. It shows how the first martyr Stephen began the Christian persecution in Jerusalem and how the church was dispersed throughout the Empire.

I watched this on Netflix and its not available on Youtube and it looks like its behind a pay wall if you don't have a cable subscription. But I will link a couple of free videos and one which sort of covers what I mention but not in as much detail. But you will get the gist. There were a couple of others I thought interesting as well.

I find its a great way to know the bible. It brings alive what happened by visiting the sites and including archeology and then the bible verses that go with these events. You learn the smaller details which add flesh to trhe stories and take you back to those times. It lends weight to their truth as really happeneing as the bible said.
