By Steven Chan 1. “The heart is used figuratively for the hidden springs of the personal life, the center of man’s inward life, and contains ‘the hidden man'(1 Pet 3:4)” (Vine’s Dictionary) According to Prov 23:7, the thoughts of our hearts shapes who we are. We are what we think about in our hearts. That’s the power of our […]

By Steven Chan 1. The challenge of ascertaining what is truly valuable is a daunting task.  From our observations, people ascribe different values to various things.  Is value subjective or objective? It is not the purpose of this article to discuss that question. The purpose of this present discussion is to highlight what God our […]

By Steven Chan 1. According to Vine’s expository dictionary of New Testament words, the word “gospel” is translated from the original Greek word, “εὐαγγέλιον :(Noun Neuter — euangelion — yoo-ang-ghel’-ee-on ), … the word stood for “the good news” itself. The Eng. word “gospel,” i.e. “good message,” is the equivalent of euangelion (Eng., “evangel”). In the NT it denotes the “good tidings” of […]

By Steven Chan 1. The Bible teaches us that acts of kindness, generosity and hospitality ought to characterize the disciples of Christ. “Be hospitable to one another without grumbling” (1 Pet 4:9; Rom 12:13). “For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. 36 Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful” (Luke 6:35-36; 2 Cor 9:13). 2. In Matt 10:42, Jesus revealed that even […]

The church of the living God had a starting point on the planet earth, and its […]

By Steven Chan 1. The very driven and hardworking apostle Paul shared his attitude towards the preaching of the gospel in 1 Cor9:16-18:  “For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel! 17 For if I do this willingly, I […]

By Steven Chan 1. Just because some things are hard to understand does not mean that these things are not Scriptures. The apostle Peter referred to these “hard to understand” things as “Scriptures”: “which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.” (2 Pet 3:16). Peter effectively categorized Paul’s writings […]

By Steven Chan 1. Whilst there’s consolation from being in Christ, comfort from the practice of love among brethren, and sharing in common by walking in the Spirit, as well as having affection and tender mercies towards one another, the apostle Paul urged that brethren ought also to be “like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, […]

By Roger D. Campbell When you think about Simon Peter, what comes to mind?  One of the original twelve apostles, more is said about him in the Bible than any of those other eleven.  Most of us can relate to this imperfect man because his weaknesses remind us of ourselves.  Let us take a quick […]

By Lim Chong Teck “Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the Lord your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.” Deuteronomy 8:19  One of the blessings of being a Christian is to be able to have fellowship with one another on […]
