  • 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

Vaneeza Malkah

In Yeshua’s day, the Hebrew word for bind, asar, acquired the additional meaning 'forbid' and the Hebrew word for loose, hitir, acquired the additional meaning 'permit'. Before ascending to the Father, Yeshua passed on that stewardship and authority to the leadership of congregations and believing communities (that is, his talmidim) and this is what is exemplified in Mattityahu 16:19. It appears that, to a certain extent, Mattityahu 16:19 is a fulfillment of Daniel 7:18. You see, as hashem gives clear direction, Congregational leaderships need to prayerfully develop and establish sound halacha, thus defining for their communities what attitudes and behavior are deemed acceptable and not acceptable according to the Scriptures. This is the development of halacha. This is the way to walk with hashem as a righteous one or a tzaddik. This is the essence of Keys of the Kingdom and binding and loosing.
