  • 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.

Short Skirt, Long Jacket : Cake

I want a girl (bride) with
A mind like a diamond (a pure and impenetrable testimony)
I want a girl who
Knows what's best
I want a girl with
Shoes (a walk) that cut (like a sword)
And eyes that burn
Like cigarettes (fire)
I want a girl with
The right allocations
Who's fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack (a thorn with words)
She's playing
With her jewelery (gold and silver, refined in the fire)
She's putting up her hair (preparing her glory)
She's touring the facilities
And picking up slack (carrying burdens)

I want a girl with a short skirt (naked before me)
And a long jacket (white robes)

I want a girl who
Gets up early (rising of the revelation)
I want a girl who
Stays up late (sits in the west, the right hand)
I want a girl with
Uninterrupted prosperity
Who used a machete (the sword)
To cut through red tape (graven images)

With fingernails (dead flesh) that
Shine like justice
And a voice that is dark (hidden)
Like tinted glass
She is fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack
She's touring the facility
And picking up slack

I want a girl with a short skirt
And a long, long jacket

I want a girl with
A smooth liquidation (selflessness)
I want a girl with
Good dividends (good fruit)
At city bank (Jerusalem's riches / kingdom of Elohim)
We will meet accidentally
We'll start to talk when
She borrows my pen (asks for my metaphors)

She wants a car (fiery chariot) with
A cupholder arm rest (works based on the wine)
She wants a car
That will get her there
She's changing her name
From Kitty to Karen (restored: "Karen" = "Pure")
She's trading her MG for
A white Chrysler LeBaron

I want a girl with a short skirt
And a long jacket

"I am the root and the offspring of David" (rhythm)

Secretly through every work of art spoken by children of hope.

Peace.

Southern Cross : CSN

Yeshua: Got out of town on a boat
Goin' to Southern islands. (those who yearn for paradise)
Sailing a reach
Before a followin' sea. (those who live in emotion)
She was makin' for the trades
On the outside,
And the downhill run
To Papeete bay. (the place of miraculous pouring out)
Off the wind (led by the Spirit) on this heading
Lie the Marquesas. (the land of men)
We got eighty (8x10 circumcision law / covenant) feet of the waterline.
Nicely making way.
In a noisy bar in Avalon (apple : artisticly, "transgression")
I tried to call you.
But on a midnight watch I realized
Why twice you ran away.

Chorus

Music: Think about how many times
I have fallen (you misunderstood my message)
Spirits are using me
larger voices callin'.
What heaven brought you and me
Cannot be forgotten.

Yeshua: I have been around the world,
Lookin' for that woman/girl, (my bride)
Who knows love can endure.
And you know it will.
And you know it will.
When you see the Southern Cross (your own cross)
For the first time
You understand now
Why you came this way
'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from
Is so small. (no "eternal torment")
But it's as big as the promise
The promise of a comin' day.
So I'm sailing for tomorrow
My dreams are a dyin'. (I am still being crucified)
And my love is an anchor tied to you
Tied with a silver chain. (shackled by pleasant speech)
I have my ship
And all her flags (signs) are a flyin'
She is all that I have left (my word has been corrupted)
And music is her name.

Chorus

Music: Think about how many times
I have fallen
Spirits are using me
larger voices callin'.
What heaven brought you and me
Cannot be forgotten.

Yeshua: I have been around the world,
Lookin' for that woma/girl,
Who knows love can endure.
And you know it will.
And you know it will.
So we cheated and we lied (with my false image)
And we tested
And we never failed to fail
It was the easiest thing to do.
You will survive being bested. (Victory is mine)
Somebody fine (the new you)
Will come along
Make me forget about loving you. (the old you)
At the Southern Cross.

"And the ransomed of YHWH shall return, and come to Zion with songs and incomprehensible joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away."

"These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David (rhythm, the psalmist), he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth"

All glory to Him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb.
Peace.
I never really thought of that song in a religious or spiritual sense, but I always liked it (always wanted to see Tahiti and the Marqueses Islands).

Listening to a massive Led Zeppelin play list (Stairway)

Had to... It is a flagship.

There's a lady (religion) who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven. (buying and selling her soul)
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word (having simply cried "Jesus") she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
(buying and selling)

There's a sign (no "eternal torment") on the wall (a device for keeping others out) but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. (rightly divided)
In a tree (concept) by the brook (gentle testing), there's a songbird (messenger of music) who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. (taken as graven images)
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west, (the right hand)
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke (false prophecy) through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking. (those who recognize it)
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune (believe!)
Then the piper (Son of David/rhythm) will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow (trouble accepting it), don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen. (virgin preceding the parade)
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go, (should I believe it?) in case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind (Set Apart Spirit) blow, and did you know
Your stairway (tower of confusion) lies on the whispering wind. (will be whiffed away)

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows (self of fear) taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know (with us and the piper now)
Who shines white light and wants to show (reconciled)
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all is one and one is all
To be a rock (testimony) and not to roll. (immovable)

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

"All the daughters (intentions) of music shall be brought low" (humbly bow before YHWH)

Peace.

Eight : circumcision
Ten : Law
8x10 : covenant
Water : testing (can one swim or not, how long can one live without, can one stand in the current, does the ship float, can one walk on it, is one clean or not, will one be willingly immersed in it?)

Peace.

We can't always get it all, just "wonder" if it's really there. :p

"Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah"

And it can't be proven from one person to another...

"And to the messenger of the church in Philadelphia (brotherly love) write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; 8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. (Salvation)"

But we speak of it.

Peace.

Well one thing I will say, and I have to admire a fertile imagination, but one that can equate circumcision with a nautical measurement of rope, and further use numbers to back it up scripturally and tie the two in is well out of my league. My hat's off to you (if I wore a hat, that is).:thumbsup:

:D

You might surprise yourself what you can come up with, if you think about the simple details of things. Like circumcision (the sign of the covenant) for example.

A man sacrifices a precious part of his flesh, for the benefit of the bride.
Same thing God did when He sacrificed His most precious flesh, Yeshua.
A great equalizer to counteract the "curse" of the woman's (mankind's) lack of satisfaction, to reenforce fruitful multiplication.
Not really so much about the physical as the spiritual. Circumcision of the heart.

Before that, He drew the same circle in the sky with Noah.
He sacrificed the stability of the earth's weather (no previous rain storms) for the benefit of one righteous family getting a start in a clean world, and having predictable weather cycles for more fruitful harvests.

Same covenant over and over again. We keep breaking, He keeps making. But I digress, off topic. Hugs and Peace!

When I think of circumcision I don't usually think of some Biblical aspect of it, I think of sore baby peepees on the one hand, something that helps keep down infection and help with the love mojo on the other. I still have a hard time equating that to 80 feet of nautical rope or whatever, but peace to you too, keep the imagination flowing, and have a great evening.

Exactly. It's one of the reasons God said He'd make their descendents countless like "sand of the sea" as part of the deal. :p

Chop and Change : The Black Keys

"Bride" of Christ, circumcision of the heart (sacrifice for good fruit), AND chop up words and "change" (reveal) the metaphors.

"Word" of wisdom and "word" of knowledge. Gifts of the Spirit!
