• 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

Wow, it's been almost a year since I last logged in... How're things going, friends? I've been neck deep in graduate studies for the past year, as well as working full time and playing my guitar a lot more lately. Anything particularly notable happen? I dropped by a couple of times over the year and lurked, but didn't see anything striking. I'm glad we're back to Christian Forums after that ridiculous "foru.ms" debacle.

Things are going good Jon - definately missed you... CF shut down the Sotorieology forums for about two months back in November/December last year. That's about the only thing of interest that I can think of that you may have missed... Are you taking a break from school for the summer?

Nope. No rest for the weary, as they say. Of course, I only have one quarter left, so I wouldn't want to put it off anyway. I am ready to be done.

Why did they shut down the Soteriology forum?

Not exactly sure - but I think the main reason was because people were reporting each other constantly. I think the mods were just getting slammed with that stuff and had no choice but to close it down to make a point. It all started when a few characters showed up who absolutely despise Calvinism/Reformed Theology and would stop at nothing to attack those of us who are Calvinist. Of course we wouldn't stand for it - and it just went down hill from there. Things seem to be a bit more civil over there nowadays...
