• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

He did no such thing. He kept every single one that applied to him. And they aren't "Jewish laws". They are YHWH's laws.


You are assuming pork was forbidden for health concerns. That may be a secondary reason, but the primary reason was holiness (Leviticus 11:45-46).


Yeshua (Jesus) did the spiritual work of healing on the Sabbath. He did not do secular work like carpentry on Sabbath. All Sabbath keepers today can do all the spiritual work they want on Sabbath since YHWH did not forbid such work. Yes, we should show love to others on Sabaath as well as the other six work days. However, it is not showing love to your neighbor to go help him weed his garden or mow his lawn on Sabbath. That is actually showing a lack of love for him and YHWH.


We are not to purposely break the commandments because we know we will be forgiven. Since our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, we are not to defile them by eating swine's flesh or writing graffiti all over them. Would you write graffiti on Solomon's Temple if it were still standing?


Is tattooing "adorning" or "defacing"?



Art can be beautiful and creative as long as it does not defile or deface the temple of the Holy Spirit. It changes the image God created us with.

I'm not saying that we should break Commandments, but Jesus set us free from the laws. But the Ten Commandments still stick. And I don't believe anyone should get permanent tattoos, but what's wrong with a temporary tattoo? Nothing. Also, they were laws given to Jews by God, so, yeah, they were Jewish laws.

And I work on some Sundays, so does that make me evil?? LOL

You said the Ten Commandments still stick, but then you question whether or not you are evil for working on some Sundays. Are you unaware that the Sabbath is from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday? The Almighty could care less if you work on Sunday, but if you work on the 7th day, then you break the 4th of the Ten Commandments.

I'm a Christian not a Jew. I don't appreciate you disrespecting me. Now please leave

Doesn't mean I have to be a Jew to post on here
True. But as you are not MJ, you cannot teach against our core beliefs.

One of those is that the Sabbath is Saturday, not Sunday. So your working on a Sunday is A-OK.
