    What You Are and Who You Bear
    Nov 4 2024
    As people who have been chosen by the LORD to be His very own, holy family, we respond to such grace by truly loving GOD with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength…as well as loving all neighbors – even the least likable – as ourselves.

  • Jesus’ Call for Committed Followers, Not Fans

    Jesus’ Call for Committed Followers, Not Fans
    Nov 4 2024
    After Peter identifies Jesus as “the Christ of God” and Jesus predicts His own torturous death and resurrection, Jesus invites anyone who would come after Him to “deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow” Him. As there is no comfortable way to carry a cross – no matter how one positions it – the heart of discipleship entails following Jesus at all times and at any cost. Yet everyone who by faith loses his/her life now for the sake of following Jesus here gains it for eternity.

    Oct 21 2024
    The picture of eternity encompasses an uncountable throng from every nation, tribe, peoples, and tongues uniformly praising God and the Lamb for His wondrous salvation!

  • It Is a Great Commission, Not a Recommendation

    It Is a Great Commission, Not a Recommendation
    Oct 15 2024
    Mass migration to the West has opened a door for God's mission nobody can shut (Rev. 3:8). Nowadays, Christians do not need to travel to the jungles of Africa or the dangerous war-torn Middle East in order to share the Gospel with the lost. The mission is on our doorsteps. Muslims, Arabs, Hindus, and other ethnicities are in our colleges, hospitals, gas stations, fast food restaurants. We just need to trust Jesus Christ and share the Gospel boldly with the lost.

    Certain Security
    Sep 30 2024
    In this world of pain and problems, we often feel helpless and question God's presence and help. How can we be certain that God is with us and will help us? The psalmist tells us how in Psalm 91.

  • Jesus Leads Us to Eternal Light

    Jesus Leads Us to Eternal Light
    Sep 23 2024
    Jesus - the Light of the World - did not simply come to illumine our lives here but to lead us to His everlasting light! Revelation holds before us the hope of the new creation, our eternal abode where God’s presence, glory, and light (the lamp of the Lamb) alone beautify us and satisfy our every need. There may or may not be a literal sun and moon in the new cosmos; either way, the lamp of Christ is sufficient to make the saints resplendent. Moreover, the absence of night and darkness here emphasizes the fact that (1) nothing from the old world will be able to hinder God’s glorious presence from filling the new creation; and (2) God’s children will enjoy unhindered access to the full presence of Yahweh. God’s presence does not fully dwell in this creation because evil still resides here, and our access to God here is limited to faith, not actual sight. In the new creation, however, the age-long benediction of Numbers 6 reaches its fullest possible extent where God’s face forever and unhindered shines upon us.

  • Jesus Makes You to Shine

    Jesus Makes You to Shine
    Sep 16 2024
    When Jesus came into our heart with all of His light, He re-made us to shine His light right where we live, work, worship, and play. God didn’t give us His light so that it could be hidden or kept on the DL; rather, God gave us His light that we would shine brightly. Moreover, Jesus underscores our identity and calling when He says: “You, yourselves (emphasis), are the light of the world. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” This identity and calling is unique to Christians; no other people on earth can truly illumine this world. Moreover, we enlighten this world and bring glory to God when we do good works in His name, which is precisely what God has prepared in advance for us to do (Eph 2:10).
