God has certainly blessed the event 'The Love from Above' held in FGC Changlun on the 13th February '09. The turnout was very good on that day as about a hundred students attended the function. The message was conveyed by Bro. Jimmy Wang of SUFES.

The next event FGC Changlun is organizing will be on the 13th March '09. Start thinking of friends to invite. This would be the opportunity to share Christ with our friends who has yet come to know Him. Most importantly, pray that God would soften their hearts to come to the event. And it is not by our effort that the person comes into a relationship with Him, but rather it is the Holy Spirit who convicts a person's heart.

Pray that they too would know of the Saviour's love on that night. Pray also, for wisdom in organizing the event and that the message of the Gospel is preached. The success of the event comes from God alone.

Wishing you all a blessed week ahead and ALL THE BEST IN THE MID-SEMESTER EXAMS!!!

God bless.

In Christ,
FGCChanglun

Come next Friday(14th February 2009) is Valentine’s Day and here’s some food for thought. Before that, an item entitled, ‘Love from above’ will be held in our church on the 13th February 2009. 

When we talk about love, do we really know what it means, especially for us Christians? Think back to the days when you were new in the family of Christ, what actually attracted us to enter into a relationship with Him?

Is love merely an emotion that one experiences and a good feeling that occasionally and momentarily warms our heart? It has definitely nothing to do with the oh-so stale subject such as the BGR(Boy-Girl-Relationship) or a celebration to commemorate what some guy named Valentine did for his lover. Or is it some sort of an infatuation(in chic lit terms: a crush)?

 This brings us back to the question earlier on; it is because of His great love. God’s love in action through Jesus Christ and also, all the events that God was involved in in the lives of us humans. It was not only the death He paid for us on Calvary’s tree, but also His ministry days on earth. We loved Him because He first loved us. The initiative taken to draw us back to Himself, because there is simply NO WAY we’re able to do so by our own means. Allow me to put it in other words, we can NEVER draw ourselves to Him by whatever our human means. 

Also, there’s nothing good in us that validates us to all the blessings we receive. As Romans 5(kindly open your bibles) puts it, “While we were still sinners, Christ still died for us. The hymn writer has expressed this, “And can it be, that I should gain an interest in the Saviour’s blood?”. Even the vilest(baddest!) of us humans will receive forgiveness from God because of the death of His own son, Jesus Christ. 

No human love can demonstrate this. Ourselves, including myself, can’t possibly love those closest to us perfectly, how are we then, to love those whom we think are ‘hopeless’ cases, destitutes and some people whom we would rather not associate ourselves with? Jesus did all that when He was on earth before his death and ascension to heaven. He had meals with sinners, tax collectors and what nots! It was indeed very radical at Jesus’ time, so imagine having lunch and chatting with the most ‘uncool’ and ‘weirdest’ person in your college or your faculty?   =)

Haha. It doesn’t stop here. God even adopted us as His children and made us co-heirs with Christ!!! How marvellous is this? He also listens and answers us when we pray to Him. What sort of love is this? As the theme for the following Friday(on the 13th February) answers this question… It is divine love. ‘Love From Above’. 

God bless. Please pray for all the friends that we're bringing that they may one day come to know and accept Christ as their Saviour and enter into a relationship with Him. =)
