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.

Wondering about Mary and the KingdomGod begins with what seems tiny or hidden, and that small start grows into His full purpose. -

Walking in ObedienceWhat a wonderful post. I have a friend who got into drugs pretty bad. He didn't really care about "Yielding Himself" a servant to obey God, and...

“When your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What do the testimonies and the statutes and the judgments mean which the Lord our God commanded you?’ then you shall say to your son, ‘We were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt, and the Lord brought us from Egypt with a mighty hand. Moreover, the Lord...
The shooting of Alex Pretti, an ICE nurse at the local VA hospital seems to be a turning point for many who are firm in their belief that ICE has gone too far. There were protests across the city this weekend...
Scripture Study Principles
All Scripture is written for us, but not all Scripture is written to us.
Myles Coverdale's classic interpretive grid still holds:
Of whom is it spoken? To whom? With what words? At what time? Under what circumstances? What comes before & after? What is the intent?
In...
The minute I felt safe-
The ground shook.
Then I shook.
I had to change.
The Holy Spirit was speaking-
And, I couldn’t ignore him.
He pursued me in my sleep.
In my thoughts-
I could no longer run.
If the Holy Spirit wants something-
He won’t be denied.
He won’t take no for an answer.
Once...

I had two dreams about Donald Trump.
In the first dream, I saw him in a black suit, asleep in a bed with two young blond women—one on each side. I don’t think they looked like twins, but they were very similar. He was in the center, and his hands were together, like when...
“So this I say, and affirm together with the Lord, that you walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind, being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart; and...
So, first, the thoughts that are clamoring for my attention.
I went to visit someone today. On my way, I was turning a corner and thought of Spongebob. This led me to worry that I might have taken the mark of the beast.
Here are the steps of reasoning for those who wonder how I could have...
It was as the group of individuals grown and very young of this early community saw as they are together in the circle around the fire pit that was used in heating their food, there were three of the big hairy creatures that walked upright, walking by within sight. This was as close as any of...
“If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life crippled, than, having your two hands, to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, [where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.] If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for...
1 Cor 15:20 Jesus is the "1st Soul" Resurrected!
Matt 27:
50 Jesus dies on Passover (Nisan 14) inaugurating the new covenant.
51 The temple veil is torn in 1/2 opening direct access to God' presence as Jesus departs for paradise. (Heb 4:16 & 10:19-22)

Levitical priestly order is established at Aarons ordination:
Lev 8:1-12 God commands Moses; get some anointing oil, VS 6, wash/purify (full mikveh - precursor of NT baptism) Aaron & his sons with water, VS 12, Moses pours the anointing oil on Aaron's head to sanctify = "set him apart" for...
We are misunderstood.
The people who walk quietly.
Nonetheless, we have a message—
We have been left behind by society.
Left to fend for ourselves.
Left to our own devices.
Left to survive on peanuts.
It’s hard to even find a church that will consider us.
We rely upon non profit...
“There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.” (Ephesians 4:4-6 ESV)
Now, regarding this ONE BAPTISM, I am finding that there are...
“With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints, and pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel...
Acts 4:12 declares that salvation is found in no one else and in no other name under heaven. God has given only one saving name > the name of Jesus Christ. There is no 2nd option, no alternate path, no ritual substitute & no competing authority.
THE SUPREME NAME: Higher Than Angels, Higher Than...
Step Of Faith
Our journey goes beyond salvation.
A chosen generation.
Holy priesthood.
Expected to mature in faith.
Be ready when God calls us,
To serve Him,
Carry out a task ,
Challenges us to step out.
Lay down our excuses.
Of unworthiness,
Age and wisdom,
And, let past failures go...
“Come now, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.’ Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you...
Trump's behavior and speech at Davos was embarrassing and pathetic. His posturing about Greenland was stupid and when Europe and more stood up to Trump, he backed down. Instead he is pretending to be making a new deal with Greenland, a deal that is in his own mind. He isn't getting...
Recently I joined an internet site called Substack. So the Lord led me to give a brief summary of my life to introduce myself to people who do not know me. Those who know me already probably know all of this, but I am sharing it across all platforms in case God has someone else intended to read...
