  • 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'm currently learning about Christianity and a close friend of mine is helping me with some questions I have and we regularly discuss the Bible and scriptures.

The church they belong to is a "Message" church. They don't necessarily believe in "The Message" because of the emphasis on William Branham and his teachings.

My friend wants to leave this church and focus on the Bible, Jesus, God and becoming closer to the Christianity of the Bible and not a church that condemns people who don't agree that William Branham was a prophet and that God spoke through him.

They have already spoken with some close friends who go to the same church, they also have the same doubts and want to leave to persue the truth in the Gospel, instead of Branhamism. My friend has told one of their family members but it is seen as blasphemy if anyone speaks against the church or Branham.

I'm kindly requesting prayers for my friend and their family. To soften their heart to God's Word and to seek truth, instead of following cult of Branhamism.

Thank you and may God be with you all.

Christians and Christianity seekers, need to always seek a Bible-only gathering, and not the religious ideas of so many so-called churches, who just speak of God; and their own interpretation of that. That means those who do not invent things to please, entertain, and deviate from "all the counsel of God".
Also, it needs to be a gathering of those who value the Gospels, Epistles, and New Testament teachings on Redemption way, Church truth, Spiritual life, as taught in the New Testament. That is how to learn Christianity, I have learned in over 60 years walking with God in Jesus Christ.

Father I pray for epoh and for his friend and family. I pray that You will lead them into all Truth of Your Word. Thank You that salvation is free to anyone willing to receive it. I pray that they will confess with their mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in their hearts that God has raised Him from the dead as Romans 10:9 says, so that they will be saved. In Jesus Name, Amen.
