  • 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.

Back when I joined the Pentecostal Holiness church...

1. Salvation- As easy as looking onto Jesus
2. Sanctification- With a sweet spirit- If not - Come back tomorrow night!
3. Holy Spirit- Can come with gifts, including tongues.
4. Sunday - An evening and a morning service
5. Wednesday- Family night
6. Saturday- Prayer
7. Revivals - Many in a year, conference would want reports on the experiences

So we were basically Methodist. It is my experience that the Holy Spirit comes upon people uniquely. All tongues are not the same. All gifts are not the same. Some have gifted in the Word, Music, and in wonderful personality. To me sanctification is the chief gift to pursue. If you have not a wonderful spirit we will tell you to come back tomorrow night and smile a little as we say it.

My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you... - Galatians 4:19

As we used to have it in our Pentecostal Holiness church services... Which was a whole lot like it used to be in "Shouting Methodist" churches of old....
