  • 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.

I had this dream a little over a month ago and was wondering if anyone might have an interpretation for it:

I was sleeping in my bedroom when I noticed smoke. I left and saw my dad who told me that the house was on fire and that we needed to get out quickly. For some reason I decided to go back to my room to see what stuff I could save, but when I got there I noticed that it was consumed in flames. After that, the fire is put out and I go back to my room to see how much it was damaged, but strangely nothing in my room was ruined at all and my room was better (and far cleaner, I'm not a very organized person and tend to have a messy room lol :o )

Hey there littlechris,

Your dream would seem to say that you are about to be baptized with the Holy Spirit and with fire! Though you may be afraid of losing things...the results will pleasantly surprise you in that you will gain more wisdom from above and increase in the fruit of the Spirit...one being self-control. Divine order and more peace will increase in your heart, your mind, and your life! :D :thumbsup: :amen: :clap:

welcome here, LittleChris!
You'll notice that everyone seems to get different impressions, so just gather the information and apply what you need to.

Recall your feelings during the dream--panic, fear of losing things, maybe anger at yourself, anger or trust in your father, gratefulness...
those will help you define the symbols.

Smoke can represent spirituality or ritual tradition... also things that are about to happen, warning, or cloudy vision, possibly deception.

Fire, as Humblebee suggested, can represent a cleansing and purging, but it is often difficult to control and can represent confusion, needing to pinpoint the truth... and a more obvious attack.

I notice the point where your father suggests you escape the danger, but you find it more sensible and comfortable to rescue your posessions. Think about whether there's something you're considering sensible and safe, that might be unnecessary in your life.

(I'm not looking for a confession! Just think it through on your own.)
