alive and free

i was watching part of this "Jesus Revealed" thing on NGC, and i see these guys trying so hard to find out, who exactly was at the passover feast, who exactly used her hair to wash Jesus' feet, How the cross was really shaped like a capital "T" or a small "t" like the symbol today.

they look so much into these things and then they fail to comprehend the messgae that the Messaih brought - Salvation.

I personally don't really care how the cross was shaped. all i care about was that Christ's crucifiction was of significance and one of the most important events in the history of mankind - greater than any war, economic crisis. That through His death on the cross we are given freedom and salvation, and through the resurrection, we are given eternal life.

Many a time we miss the whole meaning of it all

Oh and also - the NGC programme was kinda more finding fault in Christ (as all of em are). They illustrated the arrest of Jesus and claim that Jesus conspired against himself and then they mention that Peter cut off one of the guard's ear, BUT skip the part where Jesus heals the guard..

That's seriously not from God. Its the end times that we're living in, and its evident all around.

I'm gonna run the race for God, and tell the world who Jesus is...
How about you?

------------------------------

The past few weeks have been really wonderful, i have been learning new things, and understanding many new things, and now i see many things in a different light..

I now understand more about intercession, the power of the cross, God's love for man...

I've been a christian for 16yrs, but i only truly understand God's love now. And its simply awesome and overwhelming! The "Intercessory Prayer" book by Dutch Sheets really opened my eyes to the power of the cross... all this while i just accepted the fact that Christ's death paid for our sins and now we have the victory - but only now do I really understand - hey! We have the VICTORY!!!

Like, wake up from your slumber, as Christians we have the authority in Christ and we are victorious! We can do all things through Christ who has strengthened us - if only we were to wake up and take hold of that authority and live in righteousness...

So I thank God for helping me understand more about his love and who we are in Christ.

Recently, I've seen God working so much in my life and school. Its really like everything that has happened was orchestrated by God to teach me something or for something better to take place..

Haiz... i can just go on talking about how real God is and how much he has done for me

Even today when talking to Wei Siang (I thank God for being able to spend time talking to him and for him to come to church), i could just go on testifying of God's goodness =)
