Guys keep it clean, no more arguing.

FuxionX has stated no one is allowed to spark a debate. Anyone who wishes to do so, please do it at RWI.

This thread is for friendly fellowship among fellow believers.

As the TS of this thread, my advise is..

DON'T ENGAGE with anyone who tries to provoke argument or heated debate, just remain silent. I will delete such post. We will notify the Admin of such provocation and they will do the necessary.

Anyway it's V13 guys!!!!!! biggrin.gif

I kinda enjoy the time when we don't have to put our guards up and really relax no need to worry about what we say.

That is how Christian fellowship should be.

p.s: I kinda suspect the reason for MIA .....got a kid liao....but that's just speculation.

I really hope Tina's baby is well, healthy, and happy.

Last night I blew my top over a discussion. out of 10 people in the room, 8 say earth is due for a mass depopulation and war/famine/plague is necessary to 'bring balance' back, otherwise earth will run out of resources.

It's already arrogant enough to think that only other people will die, it's a next level of arrogant to say that even if humans have feeling nothing ultimately matters because of entropyscience.jpg mad.gif

Sah these people never experienced extreme hunger/thirst or having to watch their kids starve to death.

Learn to relax and don't let discussion or people to affect your feelings. Discuss with objectivity in mind so that people can understand.

But those who keep on stirring trying to provoke, you just ignore lah...your life doesn't revolve what these people say. Your revolves around what God says. icon_rolleyes.gif

It wasn't an open forum. More like the end of a chain of discussion between friends. Now I'm starting to mistrust the value of 'friend' also, if I'm so readily disposable in the name of planet Earth rclxub.gif

Aiyoh. When it really happens, expect a lot of screaming to the sky, existential crisis, 'god don't exist', and whatever negativity shakehead.gif I keep warning my friends be careful for what you wish for.

Heh wodues, I'm not surprised either if they deep down wanted opportunity to climb up top. Right now many people feel like everything's rigid and stagnant.

Hard to tell. I had to block someone in the chat for being creepily intrusive, writing down detailed steps on how to make a virus to kill every single human being on planet earth.

Another person said "soph you got trolled so hard". And then the person said "No I'm absolutely serious". Whenever topic about human population appears confirm will have plans of extermination peppered at the side.

I don't think this person had a happy family life, if any.

I sure hope for the rest, it is just talk. Not really believing what they say as truth...

Nah don't worry too much about it. Time to get back on talking about our Christian Life...living the life, the Faith, the challenges. More importantly to understand Christ Jesus our Lord better.

I took that from somewhere, someone said that if you threw an octopus in a tree he could see everything, but no one will say "look, there's an octopus in a tree" because they're afraid of being seen as delusional lol smile.gif
I dunno.. I just read it lol, makes sense to me smile.gif

biggrin.gif Cool. I saw a documentary once. Octopus in Small Fish Tank, food in an enclosed Jar lid.

It was left alone camera recording the whole thing. It just came out, open the jar lid with it's tentacle, ate the food and tried to escape the room, laboratory perhaps.

It's scary to think how intelligent they are.

Octopi are both cute and terrifying. There was this octopus who kept shooting hot light bulbs for fun. Each time the aquarium folks fixed the light bulb, the octopus will shoot it again. And again. And again. Eventually they moved the lights elsewhere.

and then there's this

Righteousness of Faith

Romans 3:20-23 (NIV) - But now, apart from the Law, the righteousness of God has been revealed, as attested by the Law and the Prophets. And this righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no distinction, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Faith is attractive to God. If there are 100 people in a room and there's only 1 person who believe and exhibit Faith, I believe the eyes of God will zoom in on that 1 person, bypassing the rest. This happened about 2000 years ago when 4 friends tried to lower a lame friend on a Mat on a roof in a throng of crowd..so many people were there, no one could came in by the door and yet Jesus's eyes zoom in on the 4 friends among a huge crowd. (Luke 5:20) You must understand everyone was there, they came with a hope of healing and yet the Bible recorded, among the huge crowd, these 4 friends exhibited FAITH.

In a recent incident, an impression was given unless you repent and be right before God, God will not answer prayer. The emphasis is on "performance" or doing. Yet the Bible teaches otherwise.
Jesus says in Mark 11:24 - Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

The Devil is afraid that people know this truth, he rather that you bank your confidence before God on your performance (Law). Do you know that it is possible that between a person..let say one who never fails to go to Church on Sunday, who read his bible, perhaps even serve playing the piano or keyboard faithfully and say a casual Church visitor who don't really come in contact to Church consistently but on that Day He believe what the Lord Jesus says and comparing the person who plays the piano faithfully, God answered that casual person. And the one who plays the Piano faithfully is dumbfounded why his prayers never get answered.

We must come to the place where we must disregard and consider all our performances before the Lord as Filthy Rags even though we may have done right consistently. And only count on Faith and Faith alone in God for righteousness, believing the Lord will answer because we believe. Not because we've performed. Romans 3:23 tells us why.

There is no distinction, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God


I believe this is something some Christian still do not understand. We cannot bring to God of our performances because we have all fallen short of the Glory of God. This is basic but profound truth.

I hope that with this truth revealed, you will start to practise your Faith and believe, God willing, He will answer according to your Faith and let it be unto you.

God Bless.

Thank you Lord Jesus.

What is a penalty matter blink.gif ?

Well...we wanted to cancel the service of a particular vendor due to unreliable product but because agreement is until next year, they wanted to penalize us because of early termination.

Somehow we've come to an agreement that is on our term and they agreed....to me that is the intervention of God, because of prayer. No Vendor would have agreed to do this. I won't disclose the term here bcos it's P&C, but if you know what it is, you would agree it's God.

Faith

Romans 10:17 (NIV) - Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.

Morning fellow believers of Christ.

This is a powerful verse. It helps us to understand, Faith is not something we conjure up by our means. It says here Faith comes...
Meaning to say it is effortless and comes naturally when you hear the spoken words about Christ. This translation is quite accurate. It used to be that, we understand in other/older translation, Faith comes from hearing the word of God, it is not wrong but the right context is about Christ. Why?

Why hearing about Christ brings Faith? Now don't miss this. This is very powerful, In

Hebrews 1:1-3 (NIV) - In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.

What this verse means is that, in the past God chose many to represent Him before people, there have been many prophets. People back see God through the words proclaimed by the prophets. However God left a very important key importance in this verse. Of ALL the representation, Jesus is the Last and Final representation and God wants us to know He is the EXACT representation. How Jesus is, is how God the Father is. So you may ask me,what has this got to do with Faith comes...?

Answer is everything. If Jesus is the Exact representation then it is to your interest to study how God is, in Jesus because it will help your faith.

I bring you one example. In the gospel, everyone who come to Jesus for healing, not one was turned away and all got healed. Study the Bible, Not one was decline, ALL WAS HEALED. So what this means is that you don't have to struggle trying to believe whether it's God's will to be healed or not. Know in your heart what is Jesus will for healing, have the confidence, It is an assured definite! If you're not sure, study all the incident of Healing by Jesus. Look at this verse below.

Matthew 8:2 (NIV) - A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, "Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.

There are some who do not doubt if God has the power, just like this leper. He did not doubt God has the power, he only doubt if God was willing to heal him of leprosy. Look at verse 3, let that revelation sink in.

Matthew 8:3 (NIV) - Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. "I am willing," he said. "Be clean!" Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy.

When you understand this with revelation, your Faith works to believe that God is on your side for Healing without even trying to be certain if it is God's will or it isn't God's will. You may share this encouragement with people that you know of who has chronic health conditions. I pray it will help to reinforce their faith in God for healing. I know there are many WHAT IF's. Just tell them, we are called to live a life of Faith in Christ, God has forewarned us the righteous shall live by Faith, there is a reason for this living by Faith. If everything is automatic, you don't really need to live a life of Faith. There will be opposing forces (spiritual forces of darkness) that does not want the person in a predicament to be delivered of their condition. Tell the person to keep believing, Fight the good fight of Faith, Let the good Lord fight the Battle. This is in the Bible. It's in 1 Timothy 6:12 (NIV) - *Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

God Bless.


*You don't really need to fight if everything is automatic for you. (understand this before anything else)

It's time for me to attend prayer meeting more actively.

I used to come from a small church...quite small less than 100 people.

one thing I notice is that bigger Church has the potential to expand much faster.

Yes. pls do attend prayer meet as regular as possible. It's good for your spiritual life.

The Graceful God who is close to sinners

Matthew 9:10-11 (NIV) - While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with him and his disciples. When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

Morning guys. There was an impression given some time ago, unless your heart is right before God, God stays away from you, God will not answer your prayers. Fellow friends, if you study the Bible this God who are worship by the Angels, who are proclaimed trice Holy..."Holy Holy Holy is the Lord Almighty", a Holy God sat close, ate and drank with sinners as depicted in Matthew 9:10-11. This God is called Immanuel, God with us, it's a very deep meaning. So much so, it dumbfounded the religious leader of Jesus day, they could not accept it.

Today, there's a similar spirit trying to separate you away from God. The Bible actually helps us to understand, behind such a spirit, is the work of the devil. The Devil is called the accuser of the brethren. He accuses you of your shortfalls before God, usually accuses you by the law of God, such as you are unrighteous, you're a vile sinner, etc.

Jesus came to reconcile you back to God. This is the work of God. This Jesus who called Matthew to follow Him, knew everything there is about Matthew. In those day, Tax collectors are despised much worse than a prostitute because they collect tax for another nation, in a sense they are a betrayer and yet a Holy God calls one with such a despicable deposition to be his disciple. If the Lord can approach close to one such as a tax collector, what more any of us?

Dear friends, never doubt for once, The Lord loves you. There are many voices out there but I pray that you'll take heed the voice of Christ Jesus and the word of the Bible, what He thinks of you. Let that matter to you. Know that this Graceful God will never condemn. Read John 3:17 (NIV) - For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

This was practically demonstrated by Jesus Himself in John 8:11 (NIV) - "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you,"Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin." The lady was a prostitute. Don't just read and rush this through. The religious leader wanted her to be stoned but are not qualified. God could but didn't. Think about it. If God does not condemn us, who are we to condemn others?

God gave first the Grace of No Condemnation...Why? I believe it is for a reason. There are many teachings to this but I want to bring 1 particular teaching that will help you understand the heart of God. It is God who forgive and he gives it to you on the ground of grace...meaning something you didn't earn to keep. On that basis, we are all on equal ground and thus has no right to throw dirt on others.

If God can come close to a vile person and save the person, I think in turn we as Christian should learn to come close to other and not judge another of their fault. This is practising the command of Christ: to love one another and also the most difficult, to Love your enemies.

If there's a person who have wandered away from God, I hope this message will give you the courage to come back to God who is close to sinners.

God Bless.
