  • 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

Hello! I have been a Christian as long as I can remember. There have been times when I have had time away from God and questioned my faith, but I do believe that God has graced me with his blessing and salvation and has kept me close. Thankfully, I do walk with Him and a lot of the time He is carrying me. I am beginning to not only read the Bible but to study it as well - reading the commentaries and understanding the time the words were written and context. I also listen to a lot of wonderful online podcasts from the Christian community that believe the most fundamental beliefs - God in the Trinity, Jesus is our Messiah, and that we are saved through Grace and not by works. I have been looking for an online community of believers and am very happy to have found this site. God bless.

Hi; good to see you; God bless His Word to you.

John's Gospel is a wonderful book of the Bible to get to know well.

I hope you and yours had a good Christmas Day as we remembered the birth of the Saviour.
