  • 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

Planted in God's Grace.

Wordly people are too busy with themselves,
their only gaze is set on what they can achieve.
What can benefit for them,
also using others to get this.

They care too much,
about their inner feelings.
What they feel,
what they think.
They are tossed by the waves,
on every side.

Distracted by their own enticements,
they see nothing else than what is put before them.
They follow their hearts,
even going away from what is truly right.

Yet I want to keep my gaze,
on my Lord Jesus Christ.
I don't want to be tossed by the waves,
on every side.
And I don't want to follow my own heart,
but doing what is in God's heart.

I know that feelings can change,
but my God will never change!
My heart in its self is wicked,
but God's heart is pure and good.

I know my words can fail,
but God's Word never fails!
The grass will fade and be gone,
but God's Word will never fade,
and it will stand strong forever!

I know my thoughts are unclean,
but God's thoughts are not!
My thoughts are small,
compared to God's thoughts!

I know I am not worth having any of His grace,
but He chose giving it to me anyways.
I know I am small and nothing in the sight of God,
yet His love for me abounds.

God's grace covers over my sins,
with the blood of Christ.
God's grace forgives me,
in His love for me in Christ Jesus.
