  • 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

    Advice on inquiring at my local parish with four young children

    Hello all, It's been a long time since I've posted anything on CF. The last time I was active on the site, I was a member of a Baptist church. Since then, things have changed for me in my faith and the Lord has led me in a new direction. That direction is to search out Orthodoxy. I want to...

    Is God pleased with people repenting of their sins?

    I will. And pray for me, please, also.

    Is God pleased with people repenting of their sins?

    I understand and now I see your point. Took four years, but I have come to believe this to be true.

    AOC Proposes Impeachment for Supreme Court Justices Who 'Lied Under Oath'

    I guess no one considers the fact that stances and opinions can change over time. Hard to prove perjury when they asked them a personal stance on an issue such as this one in a congressional hearing. But then again, the liberal pastime is impeaching those they disagree with.

    Why sanctions will not work, and why it should drive renewable energy.

    I agree that an unstable Europe is not good for us, but neither is a war with Russia where we are the primary fighter. Considering that Germany and many other nations in Europe are still so heavily dependent on Russian natural gas, I have doubts on whether they'd even be willing to help the US...

    Why sanctions will not work, and why it should drive renewable energy.

    The US is the primary financier of NATO (aside from Germany) and we provide much of the muscle in defense spending. If NATO goes to war with Russia, the burden would be mostly shouldered by the US. I think being apart of NATO is a bad idea for our country. We need to focus on securing our own...

    Is God pleased with people repenting of their sins?

    Just because the word "Repent" is used doesn't mean that it's indicating "repent of sins." To interpret it that way adds to scripture. Repentance in it's simplest definition in scripture means a change of mind. In the OT, the one who repented the most was God, but he never repented from sin...

    Can a man who is living with another man's wife become a Christian and stay with her?

    They could both be saved (because salvation isn't according to our works), but if that sin is not quickly repented of after receiving salvation, I suspect God would chastise them both as children.

    Is the immune system important in fighting coronavirus?

    In many patients, the immune system "over-reacts" in a way which leads to further complications, such as what's called "Cytokine storm." But generally, the immune system of any healthy person either younger or older should be able to defend itself against COVID. It's not talked about, but there...

    Requirements of Salvation

    Faith IS obedience to God. Romans 10:10, 16-17 "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation... But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith cometh by hearing, and...

    Requirements of Salvation

    Romans 4:4-5 "Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness." This verse alone destroys your entire premise. Faith is counted for righteousness.

    Wow, amazing. Those saints will be mightily rewarded by the Lord.

    How do we train for godliness?( What are practical steps?)

    That's a good question. I've personally discovered that the biggest and most underlying source to all godliness is consistently staying in touch with the Lord through Bible reading. If you stop reading the Bible consistently, it is inevitable that you cannot maintain a godly lifestyle. I found...

    Been backslidden for a while.

    I wasn't sure which thread to post this under, so it may need to be moved by a mod. Anyway, so I've been backslidden as the title says. I've gotten away from reading the Bible consistently, if at all at times. The fire that I once had to serve the Lord has grown cold; I've become more worldly...

    Does Biden have Dementia?

    A problem for you maybe, but not necessarily anyone else. Biden has already displayed his ability to speak foolishly when he gets frustrated. What was that comment about going behind a barn?:scratch:
