  • 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

Hey everyone what is your favourite and why? How has the Lord spoken to you through it.

One of mine is this

“For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.”
‭‭John‬ ‭6:55‬ ‭

I like it when he said my blood is drink indeed
O to drink of his blood that washes away our sin O what a drink indeed.
The precious blood that’s been shed. O what a sacrifice Our Lord has laid down his life..

I love it because of what Jesus has done for us.. giving himself for us what a Savior

I partake of communion regularly, and I declare the blood of Jesus when repenting, for cleansing of all unrighteousness. And I declare the blood of Jesus to be an overcomer concerning he that's in the world.

My favorite scripture cycles from one to another due to the changing areas of my life that need more focus than others.

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:4-7

I have had a very difficult year, my wife left the faith and divorced me.
Through the suffering, for the first time in my life I was able to find the Joy from Christ that surpasses all circumstances. I now have this precious gift of peace even though my life is very difficult. So thankful that my savior did what was necessary to draw me to him

John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly." If only more Christians knew what Lord Jesus really meant, what a change there would be!

My life verse has always been Romans 8:28, "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose."

This gives me great comfort knowing that Jesus is in control and will use everything (good and bad) for my good and to accomplish the purposes He has for my life.

This verse below. It speaks of His inexplicable grace, to His saints, who may have stumbled, bumbled, or fallen, and of God's mercy and grace. We may get all discombobulated and distracted in our messes that we sometimes find ourselves in, and forget how we labored in love for the Lord, but HE doesn't forget.

When we repent and return to Him ALL is restored, and even those bumbles and fallings HE can and WILL use for His glory.

It seems impossible to look at our circumstances and believe this but so easy to look in our past and see God’s plan!

For me, this is a very thought provoking question and difficult to narrow down any one scripture as my favorite. I have many favorites but they impact me differently depending on how they significantly impact on my person/life. However, I do think of these following scriptures often: Ecclesiastes 12:13 and 1 John 4:8.
