  • 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.

In the book of Acts 4:33, we can see that it is the grace of God, which is the stepping stone, for the power of God to be released and manifested in our life.

That liberates us, and helps us to realize, that we can not do anything in order to earn, or deserve the anointing and the power of God, in our live. Just as we have received our salvation by grace, so we receive the power and the miracles from God by his grace, and not just by believing the promises of God. I believe that God gave us his wonderful promises, because he loves us, and because of his grace for us.

His grace manifested in our lives, shows how unworthy, and incapable we are, to do any mighty thing or miracle for God. As apostle Paul said that it is the grace of God, that works in him.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. ~ Ephesians 2:8-10


For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. ~ Titus 2:11-14
