Since this was posted on his own personal FB page, and he <i>is</i> a pastor writing from a pastor's heart, and had not attributed any other author, I am making the assumption in good faith that he wrote it and is the sole author.<br /><br />https://www.facebook.com/jordan.hall.5836/posts/10207303576524354?pnref=storyElizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736720231951988221.post-13257706588222026192016-01-10T19:46:47.259-05:002016-01-10T19:46:47.259-05:00You’re welcome Elizabeth, but I have a question ab...You’re welcome Elizabeth, but I have a question about the article. In searching for its source, I have discovered that Jordan Hall is not the author of the piece, but is >>><br />“...Jordan United Church of Christ is a vibrant, growing church, with an incredible music and Christian education program, programs and activities for all ages, and an easy to find location. With strong children’s and youth ministry, and unique opportunities such as clowning and sacred dance, we strive to be a church that lives our faith through sharing the gospel with others and helping those in need.”<br />[http://jordanucc.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=40&Itemid=47]<br />The senior pastor is currently listed as "The Reverend Doctor David Charles Smith”, and I have not found the article on his Senior Pastor’s Blog. <br />I am most generally unfamiliar with the United Church of Christ, but in being discerning, I make an effort to know the source of information, in particular if I am going to pass it along. <br />Can you help me untangle the web and discover the original post?

Read Matthew 7:16, the "You Will Know Them by Their Fruits" passage. Jesus is --<br /> a. warning that false prophets will come<br /> b. telling us they will bear bad fruit<br /> c. encouraging us that we will recognize the bad fruit, which will be evidence they are false.Elizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736720231951988221.post-21578156884275632392016-01-09T23:00:51.826-05:002016-01-09T23:00:51.826-05:00Who gets to decide weather the fruit is good or ba...Who gets to decide weather the fruit is good or bad?<br />And therefore they are fully accredited ...... by whom shall we say that they are given the seal of approval as judge over all manner of interpretation of thought!<br />God of course -<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736720231951988221.post-61025274485689469412016-01-07T05:46:30.604-05:002016-01-07T05:46:30.604-05:00Thank you Any, I will by the Lord's grace, and...Thank you Any, I will by the Lord's grace, and you stay strong too!

I agree about the out of context verses, and that is the reason I decided just to do my own. I was taking so long for me to verify that someone's posted photo was not copyrighted and their posted verse was correctly attributed that I just decided to use the time to create my own. That way I could be sure.Elizabeth Pratahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04341086233512507156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736720231951988221.post-47846516215316320032016-01-06T22:06:01.929-05:002016-01-06T22:06:01.929-05:00Thank you, Elizabeth!
