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.

“With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints, and pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel...
Acts 4:12 declares that salvation is found in no one else and in no other name under heaven. God has given only one saving name > the name of Jesus Christ. There is no 2nd option, no alternate path, no ritual substitute & no competing authority.

Step Of Faith
Our journey goes beyond salvation.
A chosen generation.
Holy priesthood.
Expected to mature in faith.
Be ready when God calls us,
To serve Him,
Carry out a task ,
Challenges us to step out.
Lay down our excuses.
Of unworthiness,
Age and wisdom,
And, let past failures go...
“Come now, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.’ Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you...
Trump's behavior and speech at Davos was embarrassing and pathetic. His posturing about Greenland was stupid and when Europe and more stood up to Trump, he backed down. Instead he is pretending to be making a new deal with Greenland, a deal that is in his own mind. He isn't getting...
Recently I joined an internet site called Substack. So the Lord led me to give a brief summary of my life to introduce myself to people who do not know me. Those who know me already probably know all of this, but I am sharing it across all platforms in case God has someone else intended to read...

[ G4806,suzoopoieo / sunzoopoieo ] "to quicken together with, make alive with" (sun, "with" and No. 1), is used in Ephesians 2:5; Colossians 2:13, of the spiritual life with Christ...
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. Everyone who...
Not hearers only
“But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves” (James 1:22 NASB1995).
When Jesus Christ died on that cross, it was not just to save us from the punishment of sin and to give us eternal life with God, but it was to deliver us out from...
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many...
The 25th amendment is needed badly!

Understanding baptism through the lens of Jewish purification, apostolic preaching & the New Covenant High Priest.
(NOTE: Source: Jewish Virtual Library, Topical Bible, Sefaria & Hirsch)
Under the Mosaic Law, Israel practiced many ceremonial water‑purification immersions (Ex 30:19–21, 40:12...
Tongues: There purpose & why it's not the normative pattern today.
They were public verification, prophesied in advance & given at major New‑Covenant expansion moments.
Deut 14:2 God chooses Israel & for over 1400 yrs the Nation lives under Mosaic law. The book of Acts maps the transition from...
“Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.” (Philippians 2:12-13 NASB1995)
Obviously this...
We now live in a world of complete human divisiveness. There are fanatics on both sides, of both the secular and the religious world. At this point in history, the fanatics of both sides have taken over and the majority, who once were moderates creating better times, have ether been overwhelmed...
My personal phrase of the times is 'Dependency Will Be Our Demise'. We, in the first world, have in less than a century gone from
millennia of independence in every aspect of life, to total dependance on someone/thing else to provide. Simple survival is a lost art. There are product shortages...
“If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.” (Galatians 5:25-26 NASB1995)
Today I got word that the pastor I had from 1967 to 1977, from when I was 17 years old to 27 years old, went home to be...
20 And again [Jesus] said, “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures
of meal till it was all leavened." (NKJV)
I wonder if to some degree Jesus might have had his own mother, Mary,
in mind when he said, "a woman".

Seeds and nuts were some of what was brought, along with fruits and berries they had growing right there. It was more than what had been available the day before, when there was so much affected from the recent great storm. Now they could use these things to eat for the earlier part of the day...
