  • 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.

"The sisters slowly lowered themselves briefly behind the berry shrub where they had peeked through the branches, to be more out of sight, and stayed still, not moving at all. There would be no way they could overcome such a huge snake, and it would be all over if the snake found them. "They...

“One Census. 70,000 Dead. Pride Kills.” (2 Samuel 24:15) Self-Reliance: David’s Census Cost 70,000 Lives—Yours? (2 Samuel 24) Self-reliance sounds strong. Yet Scripture exposes self-reliance as deadly pride. King David—God’s chosen, Spirit-filled leader—fell to self-reliance. His census...

“Jude, a bond-servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ: May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you. “Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our common salvation, I felt the...

The Bible is an ongoing record of God's frustrations, and His plan to deal with the rebellious who prefer an adversarial spirit to following His will. This, as we all learn to participate as workers with awareness, in a creation that is necessarily built upon opposites, including good and evil...
“Zion will be redeemed with justice And her repentant ones with righteousness. But transgressors and sinners will be crushed together, And those who forsake the Lord will come to an end.” (Isaiah 1:27-28 NASB1995) Zion, under the New Covenant, is in reference to the city of God, the people of...
I am still reading in Joshua 24. Joshua had just given the children of Israel a word from the Lord. And then he told them, therefore, that they were now to fear (honor, respect, obey) the Lord and serve him in sincerity and in truth (no fakery, no lies). They were to put away all their idols and...
