Why do muslims gets their mosques built on the country's taxes, whilst all other religion are to be privatized/self-funded?

That's just the way the govt runs. But it's alright. God can prosper his people, so that they can give their tithes. There are many Christians who can testify how God has been consistent in complying the faith of his believers.

Are you a Christian btw?

Yes, I've been listening to pastor prince's sermons, and it has changed my life entirely, looking at Christianity in a whole new light.

I was about to open my pre downloaded tv series, the come across my mind about certain gospel hymn but can't really remember still try to refresh my memory about that certain hymn but can't find and ended up with this hymn called How Great Thou Art

A very powerful reminder How Great God Is

Yes thanks for your understanding. This is what De Luffy has been missing my point.

Yesterday I was at church, and Pastor Chris delivered yet another sermon, which makes my eyes roll. He said serving would heal us from our pains. As what you've said, if serving takes our eyes from the problem, then what's differentiate serving from going to the gym and work your body out until you can't lift your hand? Many people go for under distractions, like I know a school friend who is suicidal but he goes to the gym and works very hard to forget his problems, he work so hard, one day, he accidentaly tore his muscle, when he could not go to the gym, his hands were trembling for him to cut his own wrist.

So in the same sense, a dude relying on gym to distract him from his problems, is no different from those guys I know who serve 110% at church to forget about their own problems. The problem is still there, they are just not taking it head on. Not figuring why is there the problem in the first place. As I know one dude at church, he is a socially awkward guy, he speaks openly about jumping down from a high rise building or other means of suicide. But you know what? When the members all hear, nobody took action, just sat there during gathering and ignored him. I reported this to the leadership, they just tell me to not take him seriously. Instead, they think by putting him into serving ministries, will heal him from his problems. Apa ini man? What happen to us lately?

Have we turned into a community of uncaring and uncountable brothers and sisters towards each others?

Then there's that borderline between forgivesness and having a big disagreement with the church?

Does forgiveness mean, being a YES MAN? Become one of them? Just drop all my assertions and believes and values for the sake of being submissive to the leadership of the church? Even though its eating up my soul? Agree with them and shut my mouth?

I had an interesting discussion during bible study 2 years ago, when a long serving christian at a prominent church in Damansara Heights, was part of the treasury committee in charge of funding the new building (apparently in bukit jalil). He told us that he had a big fight with the church, because he felt the church funds wasn't able to fund the new building and the funds could be use better for other ministries such as helping the poor. But everyone at the committee was a YES MAN. They approves the project. And you've read the papers, that church in many years struggled to build that new facility, and put the church into debt. Many years it was delayed. The dude who disagreed with them, left the church. Even today, people question the waste of money use to build this white elephant because they only use the building once a month.

And I haven't even bring up City Harvest.

Somehow at yesterdays sermon, the pastor missed the mark by 1000 miles. Yes I agree with him, the great commission, he wants to expand the church to 15000 people, wants to do church planting and want the church to be a blessing to the unbelievers, want to be a community light house, salt and light of the earth !

But what about looking inward? He talks about church planting and expansion but this cannot be achieve if he keeps on stretching the cell groups. Do you know what he calls the cell group? SMALL GROUP ! Now he's like making our cg size 3 to 7 people. I heard of the saying, WORK HARD and PLAY HARD. What's wrong with having a 20 person cg? Where's the diversity? Where's the comaderie? Instead I having to go to cg meeting every friday night, and only meet up with 3 people sitting at a sofa. It feels more like shrink therapy than a cg session. And you know how the cgs r instructed to conduct the cg session? Every friday, my cg leader would come up with very thought provoking questions aftern the sermon, end up heated debate among the few of us. Then I feel like I am being indoctrinated, 3 vs 1, to come back to the "good" side. I can only say without love, the church won't win the hearts and minds of its congregation. We may just say yes to them, but we all be like a robot and just take instructions, things are not going to be implemented right.

The cg groups have already been stretched thin, and the pastor still want to multiply. Is he dreaming or what?

When I mean stretch thin, I mean not the work nor the commitments we are all taking. In fact, we would be glad to take up more and more serving at the church. But please don't take away the fellowship of the cg, for goodness sake. Why multiply the cg every 2 years? Before I even have the chance to blend and connect with others, they are already in the other cg. Shouldn't we deserve to have some fun at church, some laughter, some friendship?

Instead of having to come to cg lonely? No chinese new year dinner or celebration, we just come every friday are debate.

Forgiveness doesn't mean agree everything with the church. And how far do we submit, before the damage is done? The kind of damage that City Harvest have done. If anyone were to question the church policies, that person is regarded as a rebel, an argumentative and divisive persona and a distruptor who doesn't understand the bible.

Serving in ministry is not a distraction. It is to keep our eyes on our Lord Jesus. Because we're serving God not man. And we cannot serve with the strength of the Flesh because we live by the Spirit of God and that will involve you spending time with God. It take relationship to be close to God not just coming to Church and getting involved in ministry.

How long since you've actually spend time with God?

Because if you don't do that, your focus in life is inevitably in this world and that will translate in your character.

Kron, I think you have to deal with this issue that you have, with God. Spend some time and talk to Him until you do that, you'll never get out of this cycle.

Forgiveness would involve humility as well, it is not a Yes Man but it is working within the framework of Church authority.

I believe DUMC being part Methodist, they do have nurturing class for inward development. Bro just stop complaining and start thinking how you can be a blessing to others.

Jesus did say threat others as how you want to be treated. Think and Meditate is what Christ is trying to say here. Go and pray about it don't retaliate reply to this so fast.

Just meditate on this verse.

Matthew 7:12 (NIV) - So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.


You want people to embrace you in friendship then you START and do that first and do it FIRST consistently.
