  • 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

    Many worship God on Sunday by singing but do not love Him

    Here is a piece of a transcript from Militant Evangelism by Ray Comfort. I’ve adjusted it slightly for clarity: "There are some who would say, “God requires us to worship Him. That is the supreme objective of the Church. The Father seeks us to worship Him.” And so, each Sunday, they go to...

    This is the scariest verse in the bible for believers

    There are a number of verses that people call the scariest in the Bible. But there’s one verse that many overlook, yet, when read from a believer’s perspective, it can be deeply unsettling. Before I share that verse, let me set the scene. If we look back to WW1, when a soldier was commanded to...

    At what point do we become responsible for talking against leaders like Trump?

    Hi everyone, I recently had a disagreement with someone who only watches CNN and MSNBC (Channels that seem to be biased against Trump). Throughout the conversation, they repeatedly insisted that Trump is a “bad person.” As we talked, it became clear that their view was largely shaped by the...

    Sharing the Gospel at Easter Camp

    A few weeks ago, I asked if I could visit a local Easter camp for teens aged 13 to 19 and share the Gospel using a flip chart. The organiser later got back to me and said I could come around lunchtime. I arrived a little earlier than that, and not long after I got there, the organiser approached...

    ChatGPT amazed me with wisdom. WOW moment.

    I have been talking to ChatGPT about how it saddens me when Churches teach that Godly Fear is simply "awe," or "reverence," when it is much more than this in the original Greek. Anyway, as Chat and I were speaking, Chat came up with something that really stood out to me. So, here is the quote...

    The Parable of the Talents: A Call to Boldly Share the Gospel

    The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14–30) is often understood as a lesson on stewardship, but I believe it also carries a deeper message about spreading the Gospel or stewardship of the Gospel. In biblical times, one of the best ways to invest money was to purchase seed and plant it. This...

    This little one went to the market

    This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend another farmers market in a different town with three others. Over two days, we shared the Gospel using "The Good Person Test" with flipcharts. It was an incredible experience. I was able to share the Gospel with nearly 100 people, and 11...

    Sharing the Gospel at a Town Event

    This past weekend, a few of the guys and I attended an event called "The Wanga Republic Day." It takes place in a tiny village called Wangamonoma, which is tucked away in the middle of nowhere and feels like a ghost town most of the time. However, once every couple of years, the village comes...

    People's funny reactions when sharing the Gospel

    This week, I spent my holiday at the beach. I saw it as an excellent opportunity to share the Gospel with those who might not know Christ. Each day, I walked along the shore, engaging people in conversations about faith. The responses varied widely. One notable encounter was with a family of...

    Shared the Gospel to 300 people in 15 minutes

    This evening, I went to our local Christmas parade and shared the Gospel with a few people using my flip chart. When the parade was about to start, everyone lined up along the road, and I realized it was a great chance to hand out million-dollar Gospel tracts. I went down the line, giving them...

    A great weekend sharing the Gospel

    This weekend, a small group of us went to the local town’s agricultural market, where tons of people gather. We shared the Gospel and ended up talking to about 100 people—it was amazing! A lot of people came away with a clearer understanding of the Gospel. One guy I talked to wasn’t interested...

    Nearly got in big trouble sharing the Gospel- I'm shaken.

    Over the past three days, I've been spending about an hour or two at the park sharing the Gospel with people. When I do this, I challenge people to see if they can name the Ten Commandments in 60 seconds to win some chocolate. It usually sparks a lot of conversations about faith which leads to...

    Car on fire. I missed a big opportunity.

    Over the weekend, I went to the park to share the Gospel. Upon returning to my car, I witnessed a concerning sight: another vehicle went past hastily, yet one of its tyres was blown and the wheel scraped against the ground, emitting smoke and sparks. My instincts kicked in, suspecting foul...

    Is the gift of prophecy, Evangelising? I think so.

    1 Cor 14:1 says, "Pursue love, yet earnestly desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy." So, we are to desire that we may prophesy above other gifts. I believe that in this verse, the word "prophesy" simply means to tell others about our God, that they will one day be judged...

    Witnessing at a pagan festival in a storm

    This Saturday just been, I went with a couple of other Christians to share the Gospel at a festival called, "Baldrics Big Day Out." At this festival, many come dressed in medieval clothing and many do medieval reenacting of battles. Within this festival, there are all manner of people from all...

    We should all be doing something to save the lost. It is wrong not to.

    Jesus said in Mark 16:15, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation." This command was not only to the disciples back then, but also to us now. It would be wrong for us to ignore it and allow people to perish. Jesus also said in Matthew 7:21, “Not everyone who says to Me...

    Do we need to be sorry to be saved?

    I was listening to a sermon and within it, the pastor said that we do not need to be sorry when repenting. In Acts 3:19 it says, "Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord;" So no mention of being...

    Persecuted for the Gospel.

    I have been going to the parks and sharing the Gospel for about a year and a half now. During this time, Satan has tried to discourage me in several ways. So, I thought I would list them so that you may see how Satan will do his best to bring you down. 1. Just as I was starting to share the...

    Did John write the book of John? Or did Lazarus? I think Lazarus.

    At the end of the book of John, it tells us who the author of this book is. It tells us that the "one whom Jesus loved" was the one who wrote the book of John. It says: "Peter turned around and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them—the one who also had leaned back on His chest at the...

    Could not sharing the Gospel effect your salvation?

    "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation." Mark 16:15 For a while now, as I have been reading my Bible and studying evangelism, things have also stood out to me about those who do not preach the Gospel. It seems that there are several reasons why those who choose not to...
