Hello, Mole.

I will grieve for Lloyd Longfield given that his eternity is now fixed by his death. Unless he repented at the last and embraced the biblical Christ, his will be an endless future shaped by regrets. There is nothing to celebrate in this.

For those who may be interested, Simon Longfield penned the following eulogy for his father:

Pastor Lloyd Longfield passed away today (March 29, 2012), at the age of 93. As the founding Pastor of this Church he has been instrumental in inspiring thousands to embrace the Holy Spirit.

His passion was for the need to receive the Holy Spirit, with the Bible evidence of speaking in tongues; His resolve was that Spirit-filled people should live a righteous life, and not return to their sinful ways; His clarity related to the prophecies of the Bible, and that the Lord will return as King of Kings; His determination was that the Revival Centres, like the early Church, should not compromise.

We salute a man, whose zeal for embracing the fundamentals of scripture is legendary. We respect a man, who really understood that our God of the Bible meant what He said.

This Church is a beneficiary of Pastor Lloyd’s wonderful uncompromising vision. Let us all play our parts in advancing the legacy of those that have gone before.

God Bless and thank you

Pastor Simon Longfield

How sad that there was no mention of Jesus' vicarious and atoning sacrifice shaping either the walk or the talk of his dad. How sad that there was no mention of the power of the cross being effective in the life of the man being lauded. Sadly, what the son left out says more about the father's legacy than what he put in.

So, and pace Longfield junior's gilded assessment, I suggest that Longfield senior's legacy is far less positive than the picture painted above. Lloyd Longfield's deposit for the future of his 'church' has been one of promoting institutionalised ignorance, heresy and division; and of causing broken lives and fractured relationships. There is nothing to celebrate in this, either.

Blessings,

Ian

Requiescat in pace. 

Lloyd's no compromise attitude often lacked mercy.  As with all who depart this life I hope paenitentia was his before his departure.

My sympathy is with his family in the passing of their husband and father, Lloyd Longfield.

Fortuitiously or just  "a blessing of the Lord" there just happens to be a combined home groups meeting on Wednesday at Box Hill, being the first Wednesday of the month so this will be devoted to the memorial service, Loyd having been buried by the immediate family at some stage prior to to Wednesday night. This should guarantee a decent (captive) roll up.

I'm going to a funeral on Monday of a man who died about a similar age. He was a great husband, father and grandfather. He collected rocks and crystals, and never started a cult. He will be missed.

 AFAICR

If a Latin noun ends in a, the plural is ae

if a Latin noun ends in um, the plural is a

Why don't we just stick to forums?

Hello, Mole.

If a Latin noun ends in a, the plural is ae ... if a Latin noun ends in um, the plural is a ... Perfectly correct. My choice of spelling was intentional: it resulted in a pun through homophony. Can you guess the effect? ;)

Why don't we just stick to forums? Quia Latine dignus maior respectu. Intendo attollere vexillum magis quam deprimere.

Blessings,

Ian

Ian,

Pastor Lloyd was an apostle and prophet. His ministry bore much fruit and your comments besmirch his memory.

Grits,

Pastor Lloyd was an apostle and prophet. His ministry bore much fruit and your comments besmirch his memory. If Scripture is any guide to the matter then Lloyd Longfield was both a false prophet and an arch heretic. Accordingly, whatever 'fruit' he bore was rotten, through-and-through.

My former assessment stands.

Mr Grits


Given Paul's definition, description and calling of an 'apostle' in the opening verses of a number of his epistles, in particularly Galatians 1 verse 1, which I commend for your own reading, the 'cap' of an apostle hardly fits the late Lloyd Longfield.  ...

Ian,

I'll say  ... since it is 'that time of the year' event and being in your neck of the woods, I take it you will be making yourself available again to be be thoroughly witnessed to ... sigh some men have all the fun..

 ... might be advisable to take a travel sickness bag with you if you do decide to attend

Hi, Eric.

As the RCI Convention is run 'in-house' (i.e. at the main hall at Box Hill) the public witness doesn't work the same way as with RF Conventions. If this year's event is any indication, RCI people seem more concerned with finding a suitable parking spot at Bunnings and quickly hurrying into the hall, than they are with any sort of meaningful public engagement :)

Given the event is touted as an 'international' convention, I'm somewhat surprised at the relatively low numbers in attendance. Taking the event 'off-campus' wouldn't have been financially viable, I guess.

Blessings,

Ian
