  • 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

What does it mean if I sin?
It means that I have not taken advantage of what God has made available to me through the power of the risen Christ and the Holy Spirit.
God has given me all that is necessary to live the life that He wants me to live. I must take advanage of what God has done for me. This does not mean that I am sinless nor that I will never sin again. It means that if I do sin, I cannot blame God and say that is the way He made me. All I can blame is my own failure to yield to the power of the Spirit and the victory of Christ.
I am aware that Satan has taken a strong foothold in some of your lives. Some are bound by bad habits that have kept you in spiritual defeat all your Christian life.
You have never known your full joy in Christ because their has been sin or failure which has plague or hounded you all the way.
You seek God's help through prayer but you find that your flesh is weak. You become discouraged and Satan begins to lie to you. There is no way out.
In your own strength you will never make it. You might as well give up!

Be Careful for nothing
Be Prayful for everything
Be Thankful for anything
