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.

Donald Trump, the current President of the USA, speaking at the National Prayer Breakfast on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, publicly announced a planned event in Washington, D.C. on May 17, 2026, to “rededicate America to God.” He invited all Americans to come to D.C. and to it’s national mall to...
“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these...
I have been walking with the Lord for 19 years now, and I have been through the valleys, on the mountains, and everywhere in between. I have slipped, I have fallen, but God has always been faithful; He has been right there waiting to help me back up again.
When I came to the Lord at 23 years...
How important is it for a father to consistently model faith in Messiah Jesus?
Well, let's look at how the mentioning of the honored Patriarchs Abraham, Isaac,
and Jacob is treated in Exodus 3.
In the second and third mentions, in both Exodus 3:15 and Exodus 3:16, the Great

The More Excellent Way: An Essay on 1 Corinthians 13
1 Corinthians 13 is often called the hymn of love, but Paul did not write it as poetry for weddings or sentimental occasions. He wrote it as a corrective for a fractured community. The Corinthians were gifted, intelligent, spiritually...
Racism
Trump posted a video on his Truth Social showing a snippet of monkeys with the faces of Obama and Michelle Obama. It is a demonstration of how racist the current president is. Picturing black people as monkeys has a long racist history. It was a recurrent theme in Tea Party...
“O God, arrogant men have risen up against me,
And a band of violent men have sought my life,
And they have not set You before them.
But You, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious,
Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth.
Turn to me, and be gracious to me;
Oh grant Your strength...
From The Ashes-
I rose like the Phoenix.
What I saw was life changing—
A trail of things I had to let go of-
Years of pain and misbelief,
Seasons of being dismissed,
Dreams shattered by injustice.
Yet in the glow of new wings,
I saw something else—
The strength I carried through every...
I recently had the opportunity to eavesdrop on an online Bible study, which was starting off in Genesis 1. There's nothing wrong with Bible studies, but after listening to the readings of written commentaries accompanying the subject at hand (that said a lot but explained little), it occurred to...
The Hidden Sufferings of Christ – A Reflection on the Apostolate for the Dying
There are some books that do not simply inform the mind—they awaken something in the heart. The Hidden Sufferings of Christ – Apostolate for the Dying is one of those rare works. It does not shout, it does not argue...
Hebrews 10:23 (NKJV) ~ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.
Memo to self: Why do you "hold fast the confession of [your] hope"? Is it to prove that you have been, are, or will be faithful? Stay clear of that. You hold fast and...
1 Peter 1: 13-16, "Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: But as he which hath called...
Jecharon said, "The creatures around here never had even any suggestion of a threat to us, but we did have to be careful. I think what we should see is that if we are never threatening to any creatures around us, they will not be threatening to us. We must always continue this way with leaving...

“Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see...
Breaking the "Loop" of Stagnant Faith: Why David's Great Sin Matters Today
We live in a time where "Faith Alone" is often preached—and practiced—as a final destination rather than a dynamic starting line. You may have heard it—or even said it—in your own life: "I am a sinner, and Jesus saves...
Something I want to do in life is to be a light in the darkness. As a family-friendly content creator, I make clean content in a world that loves filth.

Jesus Himself revealed the Will of the Father for those who would turn away from man's ways towards His.
"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."
"Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

“Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things...
Colossians 3:23-24, "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ."
