The Brevity Of Human Life (Time)
Have you considered the possibility of your own or others’ death? In Asian culture we are in, death is such an unpleasant topic, so much so that we sugarcoat it at times or avoid the topic completely. But the Bible has never kept us ignorance about our death, neither did God sugarcoat it. Human life is shorter than we know, and often full of toil and trouble. As the psalmist prayed, we truly need to restore the earnest prayer of “numbering our days, so that we may get a heart of wisdom.”
Blessed To Bless
It is simplistic to think that God’s people will be exempted from troubles in life. Christians are also hit by global crisis, such as the current pandemic, but are you able to confirm how God is showing you special care despite the difficult situation you are in? As you taste more of God’s blessings, are you also more willing to be a channel of blessing to others, showing them God’s kindness and glory?
How To Be In This World But Not Of It?
The big idea of “we are in the world but not of it” has become a cliché in the Christian world. But the key is “HOW?”.

A Different Kind Of Love In Christ
The Christian love is one that transcends familial ties. The thought that we, the Church, are set apart from the world as a group of people, given the heavenly hope, this kind of relationship is unique and exclusive in nature. Yet, how do we really live out this love relationship with our fellow brethren?
The Gospel And Racism
We know that racism is wrong, but why is it wrong in view of biblical reasons? While the world offers its solutions like government programs and public education, how should we deal with racism in the biblical way? Lastly, should we be forthcoming about the deeply entrenched problems of each different race?
Sinful Man Fleeing A Merciful God
Jonah Flees From the Lord Jonah 1:4-16 4 Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. 5 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had […]
A Godly Man, A Godly Father
In the last days where wickedness abounds, is it possible for one to be faithful in his walk with God? Is it possible for godly families to be raised? The bible showed us that where sin increased, grace increased all the more. God has His voice for every generation, can you hear Him today? If you do, God will certainly raise you up to bless many around you, including your loved ones.
Uncertain Move With God’s Assurance
What does it mean to have a God who is always with us and who is for us? One assurance is that whenever we seek Him with our heart, especially in times of uncertainty, He will be found by us to provide us with timely answer and help. Importantly, since we belong to this one true and faithful God, we should not be influenced by the religions and cultures of the world, but be set apart for Him.

The modern church is caught in a great dilemma in dealing with the homosexuals today. While the Bible is clear about the reprobation of the homosexual’s practices, it is also at the same time, calling us to seek their redemption and healing.
