"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 "When Jesus said, "You must be born again" ( John 3 ), He didn't say it to a prostitute-it was Nicodemus, a respected rabbi. Jesus said to this man: "You need your whole life to be recreated from the inside." The new birth is a sovereign work of the Holy Spirit. It happens when He moves in a person's life. When you see that, you'll want to pray.   We're looking for more than behavior modification, we're looking for new life from above that makes us the kind of people who are joyful always, pray continually and who give thanks in all circumstances. This only happens through divine power. You have the privilege of knowing the One who holds that power, and He invites you to talk to Him.

Does God Exist? Does evil exist? Did God create evil?

" I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details. " -- Albert Einstein I found this clip on Youtube and quite interesting on how the young Albert Einstein argue his case regarding the issue on whether God exist. Watch how he silence the arrogance of his professor. If you can see the video, please click here . FULL TRANSCRIPT: Did God create everything that exists? Does evil exist? Did God create evil? A University professor at a well known institution of higher learning challenged his students with this question. "Did God create everything that exists?" A student bravely replied, "Yes he did!" "God created everything?" The professor asked.  "Yes sir, he certainly did," the student replied. The professor answered, "If God created everything; then God created evil. And, since evil exists, and

Enough (Chris Tomlin)

" All of You is more than enough for all of me For every thirst and every need You satisfy me with Your love And all I have in You is more than enough" This is another great song of Chris Tomlin from the album See The Morning Album. As I look it into the lyrics of this song, it points me to Philippians 4:19 that declares that our God shall supply all our need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. And on the same book, of the bible, we are reminded to "be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;  and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7) Thank you Lord for your promises. Truly you are the God of increase; the God of blessings; and the God of miracles. Glory to your Name on high. You are more than enough for us.

Come Boldly To The Throne of Grace

"No judge or dissenter can thwart the sovereign purposes of a God who hears and answers the pleas of His people. Believers in Jesus Christ can come "boldly to the throne of grace" (Hebrews 4:16), now that His sacrificial death, burial and resurrection has atoned for sins and opened the way into His presence through faith in Him." Franklin Graham ( Praying Without Ceasing )    Yes Lord! In your freedom I will live. Thank you that I can boldly to your throne of grace made possible by your Son, my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. I humbly offer my life to you. Guide me in all the days of my life. Credits: In Your Freedom by Hillsong from Youtube , user WimNL

The Jesus I Never Knew

Christianity is not a doctrine, not truth as truth, but the knowledge of a Person; it is knowing the Lord Jesus. You cannot be educated into being a Christian. -- T. Austin-Sparks A funny church sign says: " There are some questions that can't be answered by Google!" With enough curiousity, I typed in "Jesus" in Google Search and bingo! There are about 175,000,000 results in 0.15 seconds! The top 5 results is from Wikipedia , a funny titled website called " Jesus Dress Up ",  a question-captioned site called " Who is Jesus-Really? ," Youtube videos, and The Jesus Film Project . With the advance technology that we are in nowadays, we process a lot of information. Good or bad. True or not true. Relevant or irrelevant. But who is Jesus really? With 175 millions hits in Google, where a lot us rely for quick information, Jesus is undeniably one of the most popular Person throughout our history. In fact He is very controversial. A lot o

Chris Tomlin: Your Grace is Enough

"Great is Your love and justice God. You use the weak to lead the strong.You lead us in the song of Your salvation. And all Your people sing along" - Chris Tomlin ,  Your Grace Is Enough (Arriving Album Version) .  Chris Tomlin were at the Youth Specialties convention when his band was asked to to back up a guy named Matt Maher who originally wrote and composed this song. What is "Grace"? For most Christians, we define "grace" as God's unmerited favor. It is kindness from God that we don't deserve. An unconditional gift! There is nothing we have done, nor can ever do to earn this favor.  "In Christian theology it is defined as a state of sanctification by God; the state of one who is under such divine influence; a virtue coming from God; a state of sanctification enjoyed through divine favor.( 1 )"  The famous acronym for GRACE is this: G od's R iches A t C hrist's E xpense. This is the exact message of Ephesians 2:
