  • 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.

My Aunt in Hospice (short read).

I met with my aunt in hospice today. She didn't seem worried about much. She wanted to get updated on what we were doing. One thing she said (in reference to music at her funeral) was, "I'll be able to listen to it one last time. Don't know if I will hear it or not." So she wasn't just being glib because of the second statement. She really thought there was a possibility of that. And we know that after a person dies they are still conscious from NDEs. In Jewish thought at the time of Jesus, it was thought it took three days for the spirit to leave the body after death. It seems she knows about this and I highly doubt she is up to date on the latest NDE research. She knew.

Then, on a whim, I decided to check out this artist's Facebook profile on a whim. He's a great artist. His name is Ben Dixon. I like his metal covers because he really tries to worship our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ with the gifts God has given him with his music. Well, it turns out that Ben had recently shared the exact same song of one of the two songs my aunt wanted to be played at her funeral. I just happened to check his profile and saw the song there. I very rarely check out other people's profiles so I know this was from God.

Here's the song if you want to listen to it. FYI, the song was released on YouTube on the exact day that I met with her (October 23).
