  • 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.

This is a testimony to the Holy Spirit.

I've been in IT (Information Technology) for about 25 years. And a little bit earlier today, would have made a mistake that would have seen me fired for sabotage. I was about to delete a database on my personal computer, and just before doing so, the Spirit gently drew my attention to the environment name I was working on. It was Production, and not my own Virtual Machine. My action would have caused all branches countrywide to go down, and cause millions worth of losses.

Just earlier today, I was thinking about complete submission to the Holy Spirit, and it was gently placed on my heart to declare my full submission to The Spirit. So I did just that, being very specific to include my mind, my heart, my will and everything that I am. After doing so in the name of Jesus Christ, a sense of peace came over me.

So just after thanking God for His mercy, the Spirit brought this to me: "So, you see the benefits of full submission?"

Oh wow. Glory to the Triune Lord God.
