    PLEASE DO NOT THROW AWAY GOOD FOOD

    This is a great post. I find it difficult or impossible to give leftover food to strangers. That is sad but reality. My answer is to be frugal and avoid wastefulness when possible. I even taught my children that they eat all of what they take. There are very few leftovers tossed in my home...

    Framework of Understanding: a Brief Summary

    Thank you for posting. I, too try to avoid basing all my comments on a specific scripture cite. This reminds me of a A.W. Tozer quote: "The modern scientist has lost God amid the wonders of His world; we Christians are in real danger of losing God amid the wonders of His Word"...

    Is America the Babylon of scripture? NO!

    I try to remember that when it comes to biblical matters there are both spiritual and physical references. Babylon is a physical place, but there is no agreement on where that may be. It’s irrelevant. More important, Babylon is a spiritual place, it is a political and economic system...

    New member; hello!

    Welcome to CC Vineandfigtree, we are happy you are here. Sorry you had such a rough landing. I can only ask you to trust that there are many, many real people here who welcome you, your views and your comments. That being said it is also true that there is a decidedly "Evangelical" taint...

    A Question about The Feasts

    Yes, if they were believers. At least it appears to me he did....but I could be wrong.

    A Question about The Feasts

    Umm, wasn't Rome sacked, wasn't Constantinople sacked? Did not blood flow in the streets then? Were Christians then kicked to the curb? Asking for a friend....

    A Question about The Feasts

    Please remember dear friends, the OP was not about keeping the feasts but about the near total silence about the feasts among modern Christian Church.

    A Question about The Feasts

    There are spiritual and physical fulfillments of prophesy. Nearly everything YHWH did was on both levels. One does not negate the other IMHO.

    A Question about The Feasts

    I'm not the brightest bulb in the pack but even a cursory reading of the First Testament should make it clear that not all prophesy is a one-and-done. Ezekiel's prophesy about the restoration of Israel is just one example of many.

    The Sin of Pride

    Pride is not a sin, it is "The Sin." Pride is the mother of all sins, from pride flows every sin that was ever conceived or committed. It is the cause of satan's fall and the single weapon he has to use against God's people. Pride is placing ourselves above God, just like he did. (But I...

    Were boomers the hard workers of our country?

    I don't think it is "Boomers" who don't help with the grandkids. I know many "Boomers" who are raising the GKids by themselves because the parents are unwilling. If anything, we raised a few narcissistic children.

    A Question about The Feasts

    I did study and prayerfully consider your statement. It involved more than anticipated, I went down a rabbit hole on this one. It is obviously true that many of God’s commands were directed to the Nation of Israel and as such were fulfilled and completed by the grace of Our Lord. Few...

    A Question about The Feasts

    Not sure I said that. We were charged by Yeshua to work for and bring into being God's Kingdom on Earth. We know Christ will return and establish his temporary millennial Kingdom and, in the end God's Eternal Kingdom will be stablished. That's about all I know about kingdoms. There is much...

    A Question about The Feasts

    You are right. The feasts serve to remind us that the reality has indeed appeared; the first 4 feasts (the spring feasts) have been fulfilled and we rejoice. The final feasts point to the fulfillment of that reality with the return of Our Savior and the establishment of His Fathers Kingdom...

    A Question about The Feasts

    I am not advocating keeping the feasts, I too believe this is an individual choice and not an issue of salvation. That being said, my question was about the complete silence of the church about the feasts and their importance in understanding Jesus, his mission and especially the end times...

    A Question about The Feasts

    I am no expert, but if you consider all the feasts in their order, I think it very well may be the final in-gathering of believers. The feasts (at least to me) lead up to Christ's second coming, the culmination of history, when all believers will be gathered.

    A Question about The Feasts

    In Exodus 12:14 and in Leviticus 23 the instructions are from God.
