WHAT WE BELEIVE
CAAFE Statement of Faith
We believe that God is One in the threefold nature of the Father YHWH, the Son Yeshua Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit Ruach HaKodesh according to Isaiah 48:16 and 1 John 5:7.
We believe that the Holy Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God and is the final authority in the life and salvation of the believer, and the Old Testament is the critical foundation for the New Testament.
We believe that Jesus Christ is the virgin born Son of God, being fully God and fully man having been conceived by the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is the prophesied Redeemer and Messiah of Israel and the Saviour of all mankind.
We believe that all are sinners and must be reconciled to God through the substitutionary death of Jesus Christ on the cross and all who repent of their sinful nature through the blood of Jesus Christ become born again and have the right to be called children of God.
We believe in water baptism commanded by God as an act of obedience to those who have repented and believe in Jesus Christ.
We believe in the taking of communion as we gather as believers, as our expression of belief in the inevitable return of Jesus Christ to earth to reign from the Throne of David from Zion forever.
We believe that Israel both past, present and future are God's chosen people for His perfect salvation plan for humanity and all who bless Israel will be blessed and all who curse Israel will be cursed according to Genesis 12:3.
CAAFE Ministries Foundational Doctrinal Scriptures
You may have noticed that very few prolife organizations, and churches use the Word of God to equip themselves in the battle for the preborn. This is like going to a knife fight with a sponge.
It is a nice thought, and a fine hobby to have, however, this is not about how sensible and reasonable our arguments are and how fine and persuasive our well-chosen words are. This battle is the Lord’s. In this bloodiest war in the entire history of humanity, for God’s sake, put the sponge down, pick up the sword.
We have also noticed that very few prolife organizations and churches had anything to say about the connection between child sacrifice and vaccines. We make this very disturbing connection , as follows:
When Life begins:
Life is in the blood, therefore new life begins when God calls it life. That is, when it has its own blood, at conception (Lev 17:11)
Contact with the Dead:
Is unclean. Contact with a dead body, even the old dry bones of a dead body, or a grave will make you unclean. The tent of a dead person or the vessels in the tent of a dead person are unclean for 7 days. If you have contact with anything belonging to the dead you are to separate yourself for 7 days. (Numbers 19: 11-16)
Witchcraft:
The participation in, or use of witchcraft, divination, mediums, enchanters, wizards, sorcerers and necromancers is related by God to giving your children unto Molech , or passing your sons and daughters through the fire. (Lev 20:1-8; Deut 18:9-14)
Child sacrifice:
Idolatry leads to fornication and perversion and child sacrifice. It defiles the land. (Ex 34:14-15; Lev 18:1-30)
Judgment begins at the household of God: (1 Peter 4:17-18)
Most Conservative, Fundamental and Evangelical Christians agree on this--abortion is child sacrifice and it is murder.
We agreed it was a child sacrifice, a murder when it was the mother and the man who got her pregnant.
But do we still agree that it is a child sacrifice, a murder when the victim is used for a vaccine?
What changed?
The defense of those who are either reluctantly complying or eagerly subscribing to these vaccines, must use the same reasoning as the pro-abortionist. The victim used was not a human, because of a choice or a decision.
We have witnessed anti-mandate, pro-freedom , pro-life people say in protest "My body my choice" the same mantra used by pro-abortionists. Who thinks this is a good idea?
We have seen some of the best, most well informed 'pro-life' Christians say "I would never tell you how to choose and force my opinion on you/its up to everyone's personal choice / I am not antivaccine"
We have actually had solid Christian apologists and intellectual leaders explain that the use of fetal material for developing vaccines redeems the tragedy of the torture and murder of the victim.
Reprove & Rebuke:
This is doubleminded thinking, is it not? Repent of this polite doublespeak, repent of this feeble-mindedness. Say "no I will not take the vaccine that is the product of murder" say to those who are taking it "you have participated in the murder of the unborn, repent" We are to have nothing to do with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but reprove them. (Ephesians 5:11)
What do you expect in return from God who gave His Son for the last and final sacrifice when you oh Christian have knowledge of the horror of this evil practice and excuse your participation in it? (Hebrews 10:26-27)
The Marriage Covenant:
Most of the scriptures which we will identify below are not brought up in the fight for the life of the preborn. Nope, not hardly ever.
Like maybe if we give our sensible fine professorial debating points instead they can agree that killing babies is bad and we don’t even have to mention what God said about how He thinks we should organize our life and relationships before we participate in creating new life.
If I didn’t know any better I would suspect many a professing Christian, even those in the prolife movement are actually ashamed of God’s Word.
I hope you do realize that people in every corner of the world throughout all of human history seem to have figured out that what God says about families, mothers, fathers and children is really at the center of human existence on this planet. It’s not racist or xenophobic honest! It has been generally accepted practice everywhere on planet earth. It’s not fuddy-duddy either, Other ways of fornication have been tried throughout the ages too, usually just prior to the death of that culture or civilization that thought their way was the enlightened way to go.
So it seems that God might have point.
What is a marriage?
A marriage is the joining of a male and a female into a union, where they become one flesh, for life. (Matthew 19:4-6). This covenant is to be so strong and enduring that is intended to represent Jesus’ covenant to His church.
How would that even be possible?
Don’t people make mistakes all the time, resulting in bad marriages?
Throwaway relationships result in throwaway children or preborn babies who are murdered because the mother made the choice that this person was not human.
To prevent throwaway girlfriends, throwaway boyfriends, throwaway children and throwaway babies God gave high yet thoroughly doable standards.
Stay committed to the marriage and do not divorce (Matthew 19:9).
Do not have sex before marriage. (1 Cor 7:8-9), (Matt 19:11-12)
There are established roles for men and women. Whether you agree or not, it is true that there has to be a leader. God gave that role to men, possibly because they have more strength. (Eph 5:22-24: 1 Peter 3:3-5). However the godly limit on this strength is love. A love that should imitate Christ’s love for His church. (Eph 5:25-29) The wives are to respect their husbands as leaders in the marriage. (Eph 5:22)
Women want love. Men want respect. God knows, this is how He wired us.
Full scripture:
Leviticus 17:11
"For the life of the flesh is in the blood. I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life."
Numbers 19:11-16
“He who touches the dead body of any man shall be unclean seven days. He shall purify himself with water on the third day, and on the seventh day he shall be clean; but if he doesn’t purify himself the third day, then the seventh day he shall not be clean. Whoever touches a dead person, the body of a man who has died, and doesn’t purify himself, defiles the Lord’s tabernacle; and that soul shall be cut off from Israel; because the water for impurity was not sprinkled on him, he shall be unclean. His uncleanness is yet on him. This is the law when a man dies in a tent: everyone who comes into the tent, and everyone who is in the tent, shall be unclean seven days. Every open vessel, which has no covering bound on it, is unclean. Whoever in the open field touches one who is slain with a sword, or a dead body, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days."
Leviticus 20:1-8
"The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Moreover, you shall tell the children of Israel, ‘Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners in Israel, who gives any of his offspring to Molech shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone that person with stones. I also will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his offspring to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
If the people of the land all hide their eyes from that person when he gives of his offspring to Molech, and don’t put him to death, then I will set my face against that man and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the prostitute after him to play the prostitute with Molech, from among their people. The person that turns to those who are mediums and wizards, to play the prostitute after them, I will even set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am the Lord your God. You shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am the Lord who sanctifies you."
Deuteronomy 18:9-14
"When you have come into the land which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the abominations of those nations. There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices sorcery, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, or a charmer, or a consulter with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord. Because of these abominations, the Lord your God drives them out from before you. You shall be perfect with the Lord your God. For these nations that you shall dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery and to diviners; but as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you so to do."
Exodus 34:14-15
“For you are to bow down to no other god, because Adonai is jealous for His Name—He is a jealous God. See that you do not make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land. Otherwise when they prostitute themselves with their gods and sacrifice to their gods, someone will invite you, and you will eat from their sacrifice”.
Leviticus 18:1-30
"Adonai said to Moses: “Speak to Bnei-Yisrael and say to them: I am Adonai your God. You are not to act as they do in the land of Egypt, where you used to live. Nor are you to act as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you, nor are you to walk in their customs. You are to obey My ordinances and keep My statutes and walk in them—I am Adonai your God. So you are to keep My statutes and My ordinances. The one who does them will live by them. I am Adonai. “None of you is to come near anyone who is his close relatives to uncover their nakedness. I am Adonai. “You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father or your mother. She is your mother. You shall not uncover her nakedness. You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father’s wife, for it is your father’s nakedness You are not to uncover the nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere. You are not to uncover the nakedness of your son’s daughter, or of your daughter’s daughter, for theirs is your own nakedness. You are not to uncover the nakedness of the daughter of your father’s wife, conceived by your father, since she is your sister. You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father’s sister, for she is your father’s direct relative. You are not to uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, for she is your mother’s direct relative. You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother by approaching his wife, for she is your aunt. You are not to uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law, for she is your son’s wife. You are not to uncover her nakedness. You are not to uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife, because that is your brother’s nakedness. You are not to uncover the nakedness of both a woman and her daughter. You are not to take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness, for they are direct relatives. That is wickedness. You are not to marry your wife’s sister, to be a rival, uncovering her nakedness, while her sister is still alive. “You are not to approach a woman to uncover her nakedness while she is in the impurity of her niddah. You are not to lie sexually with your neighbor’s wife and defile yourself with her. 21 “You are not to give any of your children in sacrifice to Molech, and defile the Name of your God. I am Adonai. “You are not to lie with a man, as with a woman—that is an abomination. You are not to lie with any animal to defile yourself with it, nor is any woman to give herself to an animal, to lie down with it—that is a perversion."
“Do not defile yourselves in any of these things, for in all of these ways the nations which I am casting out before you were defiled. The land has become defiled, so I will punish its iniquity, and the land will vomit out its inhabitants. You, however, are to keep My statutes and My ordinances, and do none of these abominations, neither the native-born, nor the outsider dwelling among you. “For all these abominations were done by the men of the land who were before you, and the land became defiled. If you defile it, the land will vomit you out as it vomited out the nation that was before you. For whoever does any of these detestable things, the souls that do them are to be cut off from the midst of their people. Therefore you are to keep My charge, so that you do not practice any of these detestable customs that were practiced before you, so that you do not defile yourselves by them. I am Adonai your God.”
Matthew 19:3-9
The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?” And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.” They said to Him, “Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?”
He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”
1 Corinthians 7:8-9
“But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am; but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry”
Ephesians 5:22-33
Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
1 Peter 3:3-5
Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trusted in God also adorned themselves, being submissive to their own husbands.
1 Peter 4:17-18
"For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen to those who don’t obey the Good News of God? “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will happen to the ungodly and the sinner?”
Ephesians 5:11
"Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them."
Hebrews 10:26-27
"For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,
but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries."
Are you ashamed of God’s word?
Mark 8:38
“For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”
Mark 13:31, Luke 21:33, Matthew 24:35
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.”
Concluding Thoughts:
“Abortion is considered the best choice and the only choice available often after choosing very unwisely time and time again. It may be called pro-choice by the world, but abortion is the crown that is granted for being really bad at choosing”
We are calling on God’s people to live like God says.
God means what He says and says what He means.
Choose wisely.
Choose life.
