  • 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.

Dream....perhaps unity being addressed?

"had a dream about a dark complected man who looked middle eastern come across the street from a house just to the right of my house with his arm's opened in a friendly greeting..and he began to rub oil or something for beards into my facial hair and the whole time i kept my eyes down cast and i felt uncomfortable. but was amazed that my beard had grown as the man had rubbed the oil into my beard until it was absorbed"

Recently I had a dream..
I've asked many people about this dream and found myself at a church where I saw a brother sitting outside of the congregation and I kept wondering to myself why is he sitting there?
Is he a guest speaker or something?
Fast forward to Wednesday of this last week at men's Bible study I shared my dream I just had..which is this...

I got a interpretation from him then but later this last Sunday at service, he stopped me and told me he had prayed about it and he was Led to Psalms 133
I believe the Lord is seeking to address unity within the body now as I continue to see it..
The sermon at service Sunday was about Progress AND Unity.
Any thoughts?

I'm not sure what your dream mean't but it does say this in scripture.

King James Bible Joel 2:28
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

I appreciate the reply.
The dream..while I posted it I do believe the right or a part of the interpretation had already been given as I spoke of in the OP.
Just trying to see if anyone else can add anymore clarity to it.
As we only receive in part.
Though I do appreciate the reply.

Seems pretty self evident to me.

Speaking from experience it is often initially regarded as shameful to have an intimate experience with someone wiser than you.

Oil and beards in that context represent wisdom, life experience, discernment.

The dark complexion.. we carry with us both our own sins and the sins of others we become entangled with. Some call it an aura. The man you met in the dream was outside the congregation because he was cast out..

Yet he was the one who provided wisdom.

Your dream and this experience is pretty much straight out of the book of james.

My apologies for the confusion.
The man was sitting outside of the congregation at church on the Sunday before I had shared the dream.
He wasn't a part of the dream at all
I will remove everything from the OP but the dream which is the part in quotations to avoid any other problems.
My apologies

I did begin to realize something didnt make sense but it doesnt change that much.

The man from the house to the right of you signifies a righteous person.

My apologies but this is hard to follow as skin complection for a man from the middle east being darker doesn't scream sin to me
So please elaborate

Dark complexion is independent of skin color
