There is more...
So many things cloud around us daily.
Deadlines after deadlines.
It can overwhelm us.
There is more to life
than meeting deadlines.
We need to
walk through the Bible
on a daily basis.
Otherwise,
we will be like
lost sheep.

Jesus Conquers Sin & Death
It is written, "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death." Romans 8: 1-2. Read also Ephesians 1:3-14.
Before Jesus came in the world, the Book of John reveals that Jesus "was with God in the beginning" (John 1:2). More importantly, Jesus "was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." (John 1:1)
All the above bible verses are "mind-blowing". It reveals so much about God's plan to redeem us from the fear of satan from the very beginning or the creation of time. Yes, God created time. Time does not exist. It was timeless or simply eternity or forever and ever. Somehow, God decided to pause and create time. That is why, it is written, "Through Him all things were made, without Him nothing was made that has been made." (John 1:3) Read also Colossians 1:15-20.
It goes on to share with us that "In Him was life, and that life was the light of men." (John 1:4) In other words, God gave us life or the breath of life. How did that life enter into us is still a "mystery". Nonetheless, in the Book of Genesis, we learnt that "the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man become a living being." (Genesis 2:7)
Yupz! And now we are here, living and reading this! He is the reason we live! It is the breath of God that enable us to live! The sad truth is, many are not aware. As such, few are even thankful that they are alive! On the contrary, many dread living, find life a burden or even harbour thoughts of death!! Thus, it is written, "The Light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it." (John 1:5) In other words, we do not fully understand the meaning of living! Or how precious it is simply to be breathing and alive!!!
What is the purpose of living?
This is where it becomes a personal responsibility to begin a journey of seeking.
When a person begins to seek, according to the Holy Bible, he or she will find. (Matthew 7:7) The opposite is true, that is, as long as a person does not see the need to do so, he or she remains in darkness. It thus also explains why people are afraid of darkness or things that they know are real i.e. the spiritual realms and yet are powerless to fight them. In short, many today still live in fear of darkness. Simply walk around your housing estate in Singapore today and you will see many doing their utmost best to appease the spirits.
I was once living in fear. But thanks be to God! "For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins." (Colossians 1:13-14)
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. (Philippians 4:23)
Warmest regards,
Caleb

Nostalgia
Returning to BBTC this evening has brought back many years of memories. In 1985, it was just a piece of green and empty land. By 1987, BBTC was built. This is where it all started... The above staircase is where much of the "running about the church" took place...

Brainy =/= Moral
Asiaone reported
"Why are uni camps still so risque?"
It went on to say...
"One of the photos showed a girl bending forward to eat a banana, placed suggestively over a standing male student’s denim-clad crotch area."
Isn't it obvious?
It does not mean brainy people are morally upright citizens!
Thus, we are called to be...
"SALT & LIGHT of the world".
In short, BOYCOTT such sick activities!
We must not return to the days of Sodom & Gomorrah.
Selah.

It's been 22 years
I started helping up in church camps in December 1987.
My very first camp was with PSLE pupils.
Through it, a total of about 25 pupils attended Sunday School
regularly from 1988 - 1991. Thereafter, they moved on in life.
Today, after Church Service at Bethesda Community,
one of them, Alvin Lim Swee Heng, rang me up.
Apparently, Alvin has arranged with 2 others and visited
my former Church, Bethesda (Bedok-Tampines) Church.
He picked me up from Singapore EXPO and we had lunch
together with Grace Chua, Jasmine Tan, Ivan Tan and family.
Alvin is married, working at Aerospace.
Ivan is married, with a son, self-employed.
Grace Chua is single, working at IRA, Tax Officer.
Jasmine is married, 3 kids (10, 8, 4), family business.
We are also planning to meet up with:
1. Adrian Toh - SPF 2. Rui Cai - Contractor
3. Stanley Chan - Self employded
4. Vincent Wee - Social Worker, now at BC
5. Benjamin Yang 6. Timothy Foo
7. Andy Lau 8. Jimmy Chua
and others...
To God be the Glory!
