Are you convinced?

Do you believe that all Scripture is God-breathed? Dr Yu-Lan Zhang firmly believed that God and Jesus of the Bible are true.

The following were some facts which convinced him and hopefully it will also convinced you:-

1) The Bible was written by more than 40 authors and had taken more than 1,600 years to complete. Despite the idiosyncrasies in the various authors' professions, state of mentality, birthplaces, opinions and life styles, the scriptures they wrote fitted well into one great master plan. This combination was without any contradition; even the intellectuals believed and received their blessings. If the Bible were not God-breathed and the words spoken by men who were not moved by the Holy Spirit of God, then nothing could explain this great masterplan.

2) The Bible is full of prophecies, confidently predicting the events of the future: the fall of a nation; the vicissitudes and the destruction of the Old City; the birth and the death of the Saviour; His life and work on this earth. These were evidenced by geographical and historical facts. How thrilling!




3) Scripture foretold scientific truths in accordance with the findings of modern science. The Easth is a sphere suspended in mid-air and it revolves continuously like the rollers of the printing press. The Bible stated this truth long before scientists verified it.

4) The existence of a Jewish nation, its historial experiences showed that the Bible is authentic. The Scripture predicted that Israel would fall but it would not be consumed by other nations, only remain in exile.

She would be tossed amongst the nations on earth, suffer humiliation, be ridiculed and cursed. These were the historical facts through the ages. In 1950 the nation of Israel returned from exile and was restored in accordance with the prophecy of the Scripture.

New lawyer Darren Tan once spent 10 years in jail PUBLISHED IN ST ON AUG 25, 2014 11:47 AM

I love to hear testimonies of God's transforming works in a person's life.  It encourages me & I hope when I post it here, it encourages you too!    Mr Darren Tan with his proud parents - Mr Tan Chon Kiat and Madam Ong Ai Hock. The new lawyer changed the course of his life while he was behind bars.  BY CHANG AI-LIEN SENIOR CORRESPONDENT Darren Tan, 35, is finally a full-fledged lawyer. He reached that milestone yesterday when he was called to the Bar during a mass ceremony at Nanyang Technological University. It was a far cry from his shaky start in life when drugs and gang activities led to over 10 years behind bars and 19 strokes of the cane. "This is the culmination of what I've been working towards for the last 10 years," he told The Sunday Times. "It's like waking up from a dream and finding out your dream has become reality." His life of crime began at the age of 14, and he was in and out of prison for offences that ...

He giveth more grace - a hymn by Annie J. Flint (1866-1932)

The author of the poem, Annie Johnson Flint, suffered with arthritis for 40 years. But that terrible affliction did not embitter her. And out of the crucible of her suffering came a new and beautiful understanding of the meaning of guidance expressed in these lovely words: "He giveth more grace" Tonight we sang this hymn and the lyrics are as follows:- He giveth more grace as our burdens grow greater, He sendeth more strength as our labors increase; To added afflictions He addeth His mercy, To multiplied trials he multiplies peace. When we have exhausted our store of endurance, When our strength has failed ere the day is half done, When we reach the end of our hoarded resources Our Father’s full giving is only begun. His love has no limits, His grace has no measure, His power no boundary known unto men; For out of His infinite riches in Jesus He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again. The second stanza is experienced by many christians. We always come to a point where our en...

Idle Word

Matthew 12: 36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. In the past, whenever I read this verse, I am very much afraid because I am always guilty of saying many worthless words. However, now I began to see this verse in a different perspective. This verse is meant for our protection, a reminder and also our guiding principle in the way we talk and relate to people because there are consequences in our spoken words. In Proverbs 18:21 we see that Death and life are in the power of the tongue. There is power in our words, it may either bring life or death to the hearer. The Psalmist also knew there are consequences in men's spoken words and thus they sought God's help:- Psalm 141:3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. May this be our prayer : "Let my speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that I may know how I ought to answer every man. Col 4:6
