Baptism on Ascension Day

admin

Jesus is risen. He is risen indeed!
I got baptized today!  Felt like it was something that needed to be done.  Here’s the testimony I delivered right before the immersion! 😀
Well,
Ever since I can remember, I was brought up with the Word of God around me. My mother being an active believer herself, I can say that I have always believed in God. According to my mom, when I was a toddler, there were days for whatever reason that she might’ve wanted to stay indoors, but I would always cry, not to just go outdoors, but I’d cry to go to … Read moreBaptism on Ascension Day

Unbelievers’ ideology

admin

“The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians whom acknowledge Jesus with their lips, then walk out the door and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.”
The Bible says that we all (Christians too!) have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23) I find that my flesh and my spirit are constantly at war. The things I know I should do I do not do but that which I don’t want to do that I do.

Romans 7:
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am … Read moreUnbelievers’ ideology

Jesus is your shield

admin

Wow, Jesus saves and He continues to save us, protect us and be our daily shield. Today I had a near encounter of being hit by an automobile. I was on my way from a fellowship gathering and I was just on the what we call a zebra crossing. I was not the only one walking on the crossing, but I was behind of everyone else and the light must’ve turned green while I was just about to reach to the other side.  Anyhow, there was a really anxious driver whom apparently just needed to get on his way. His … Read moreJesus is your shield

To God be the Glory

admin

1 Corinthians 10: 31 “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”
I used to be one of those people that often would say: “Wow mate you are so talented.” Not anymore, these days whenever I see good work I say: “Wow mate, God gave you some talent there.” Why? Ah, because to God alone be the glory, we are dust without God! God giveth and He can taketh away, so don’t we for a second think we are all so academically intelligent or so great in our own. We could … Read moreTo God be the Glory

Hallelujah For Life

admin

No matter how you’re feeling, always remember the following verse:
Psalms 118:24 “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”

Additionally, I’d just like our Heavenly Father to know:

Hallelujah for my eyes, to see Your creation
Hallelujah for the touch, of my skin to feel You through the wind
Hallelujah for this mind, that ponders Your Word
Hallelujah for Your spirit, that keeps our souls combined
Hallelujah for life, and having me as Your child
I have Your strength to stay alive.

Why Believe the Bible

admin

Today I was watching one of James Merritt’s sermons (dated June 12, 2005), which I just had to share. If you’re a Christian many unbelievers will come to you and say that the Bible is full of fables, hold your ground and get the facts.
Why believe the Bible, simply put, Jesus said in John 17:17 “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”

The Bible is historically reliable.
The Bible is scientifically realistic  (principles of modern science were already recorded in the Bible!)
The Bible is prophetically correct
The Bible is personally relevant

1) The Bible is historically reliable –  The Bible was written in … Read moreWhy Believe the Bible

Pray with your heart

admin

In order to understand God and to grow closer to Him, all Christians are called to live a life full of prayer, worship and reading of the Holy Bible. Some Christians might find themselves doing two of the three at the same time, for instance, during fellowship gatherings, we may all be singing gloriously to our Lord Jesus, then somewhere in between that moment, I find myself in deep spiritual prayer. It so happens, that this form of communicating with God is the idea of this post. I believe the shortest time between a problem and a solution, is the … Read morePray with your heart

Christ Gives Rest to the heavy laden

admin

Before I accepted Christ, I was always worried about issues in my life, worrying about the past, the present and about tomorrow. Not too long ago, I was on messenger, and a friend of mine asked me if I am now a Christian. I replied “Yes, Christ is Lord”. Then my friend responded, “hmmm, is there something else?”. After which I responded with:
“What do you mean? Christ is Lord and I have accepted Him as my Saviour. I want to go to heaven and I’ll only get there by believing and following His laws.”
Maybe a bit bland, but that’s how … Read moreChrist Gives Rest to the heavy laden

In Christ Alone

In Christ Alone
Written by: Keith Getty and Stuart Townend (2002)
In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand.
In Christ alone! who took on flesh
Fulness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied –
For every sin on Him was laid;
Here in … Read moreIn Christ Alone

Clay Balls

Clay Balls
A man was exploring caves by the Seashore. In one of the caves he found a canvas bag with a bunch of hardened clay balls. It was like someone had rolled clay balls and left them out in the sun to bake. They didn’t look like much, but they intrigued the man, so he took the bag out of the cave with him. As he strolled along the beach, he would throw the clay balls one at a time out into the ocean as far as he could.
He thought … Read moreClay Balls
