Faith, Family, and Fornof: May 2013
http://faithfamilyfornof.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Friday, May 31, 2013. The convenience of my solitude - part III. What does it mean for Jesus to have been the Son of Man? My search of the phrase "Son of Man" in the book of Ezekiel revealed that it is found 93 times therein. When I looked at these 93 verses in succession, my only thought was, "What would have been going through Jesus' mind as he read these things? Have you ever thought about that? I challenge you to rerea...

Faith, Family, and Fornof: The Purpose of the Law
http://faithfamilyfornof.blogspot.com/2014/07/the-purpose-of-law.html
Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Wednesday, July 30, 2014. The Purpose of the Law. God is the God of all grace. Noah (Gen. 6:8) and Moses (Exo. 33:17) both found grace in the eyes of the Lord. If there is ANYTHING we learn from reading the Old Testament it is that God is gracious to ALL MEN! The purpose of law is to point out sin. You see, from studying the Old Testament, we find this immutable truth: Grace and Law CAN NEVER BE SEPARATED! But, brothers an...

Faith, Family, and Fornof: Marriage Retreat
http://faithfamilyfornof.blogspot.com/2014/01/marriage-retreat.html
Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Wednesday, January 22, 2014. Rachel and I are blessed to be able to attend the Smoky Mountain Marriage Retreat. This year. Thanks to Cliff Goodwin. First, Jesus said, "For this cause." For what cause? The cause is found in Matthew 19:4 or Genesis 2:23. The cause is that God made them male and female at the beginning. What Jesus is saying is that the two sexes were designed for this relationship! We are made to be together!

Faith, Family, and Fornof: Individuality in a sea of mass production
http://faithfamilyfornof.blogspot.com/2013/11/individuality-in-sea-of-mass-production.html
Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Friday, November 1, 2013. Individuality in a sea of mass production. We are making it a tradition in our family to make our own Halloween costumes. The ones from the store are too poorly made and too expensive. It gets all of us involved and stirs our creative juices. We don't do angry, evil, gory, or immodest costumes. We do happy. I saw several Iron Man costumes this Halloween season. They all looked the same. Whatever i...

Faith, Family, and Fornof: September 2013
http://faithfamilyfornof.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Friday, September 27, 2013. What is our motivation? Our motivation is the forgiveness of sins. Our passion comes from the knowledge. The absolute assurance, that we have experienced. We have been purified from sin by obeying the truth. That creates in us an unfeigned love of the brethren. Our “love” for our sports teams is feigned! It is forced and faked! It isn’t true love! This passion is reinforced and emphasized throug...

Faith, Family, and Fornof: Ancient church restored
http://faithfamilyfornof.blogspot.com/2013/12/ancient-church-restored.html
Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Thursday, December 12, 2013. Today I saw a blurb for an article on Yahoo! That said "Ancient church restored." When I followed the lead, it turned out to be an article about the "Church of the Nativity" in Bethlehem and the facelift that it is undergoing. And who gets all that money? The church and her tenets and structure do not need to be restored. What if we put confidence in the temple (church building), but are blind ...

Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Tuesday, April 23, 2013. I stand above my life and look down upon it. And I see four cardboard boxes come together in a space. The top two are centered,. While the bottom two are lagging behind to the left. There is no space between any of them, no gaps,. But there is the friction that is naturally created. When cardboard boxes rub against each other. I look within the boxes and each contains something different. I have ma...

Faith, Family, and Fornof: October 2013
http://faithfamilyfornof.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Faith, Family, and Fornof. The doings of the Dixon family who live on Fornof Road. Friday, October 25, 2013. The first time I spoke in chapel at the Memphis School of Preaching I was critiqued by brother Curtis A. Cates. After his critique, the director at the time, brother Bobby Liddell, mentioned something about bro. Cates being Director emeritus. Well, I didn't know, even though I may have acted like I did, so I looked it up. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine...
