well guys..June is halfway through..definitely fast yet i hope, enjoyable rites? okay..here's a link for all of u..do see and u can do it as a Qt for today..it's all about giving everything to God =) http://www.leewoof.org/leewoof/2000/10-15-2000.htm
hi guys, i guess i'm going to try something out on this blog, but not sure if it works. i have noticed that we like to ask questions that we are not sure of what the Bible says..so i'm thinking if we could post our questions here. then those who know the answers can help in explaining it..but with supported documents, making sure that they are reliable..eg. some verses from the Bible itself or trusted websites..
the reason why i'm suggesting this is because i hope that, through this, we can grow together..ask when we dont know and i'm sure that if we have the heart to learn more, God will surely let us know more about Him and His Word.
haha certainly there will be some rules: 1. we cannot ask silly questions (but questions that provoke thoughts are possible) 2. do not criticise anyone's questions or answers 3. no vulgarities (which i dont think anyone will) 4. if the answers are long, you may copy and paste onto a website or something else and place the link here
of course, daoshis will need to be involved in this to guide us along. hmm what do you guys think? if it's okay with you, i will post one or two questions here to start the ball rolling or anyone of you here can start it. but do keep up on what you normally post here, dont let it be just questions and answers..
This one should keep us all thinking. I chose #2, now you pick one.
Scripture tells us that it is the FOOL who says in his heart that there is no God. This is a true story of something that happened just a few years ago at USC. There was a professor of philosophy there who was a deeply committed atheist. His primary goal for one required class was to spend the entire semester to prove that God couldn't exist. His students were always afraid to argue with him because of his impeccable logic.
Sure, some had argued in class at times, but no one had ever really gone against him because of his reputation. At the end of every semester on the last day, he would say to his class of 300 students, 'If there is anyone here who still believes in Jesus, stand up!' In twenty years, no one had ever stood up. They knew what he was going to do next. He would say, 'Because anyone who believes in God is a fool'.
If God existed, he could stop this piece of chalk from hitting the ground and breaking Such a simple task to prove that He is God, and yet He can't do it.' And every year, he would drop the chalk onto the tile floor of the classroom and it would shatter into a hundred pieces.
All of the students would do nothing but stop and stare. Most of the students thought that God couldn't exist. Certainly, a number of Christians had slipped through, but! For 20 years, they had been too afraid to stand up.
Well, a few years ago there was a freshman who happened to enroll. He was a Christian, and had heard the stories about his professor. He was required to take the class for his major, and he was afraid. But for three months that semester, he prayed every morning that he would have the courage to stand up no matter what the professor said, or what the class thought.
Nothing they said could ever shatter his faith...he hoped. Finally, the day came. ! The professor said, 'If there is anyone here who still believes in God, stand up!' The professor and the class of 300 people looked at him, shocked, as he stood up at the back of the classroom.
The professor shouted, 'You FOOL!!! If God existed, he would keep this piece of chalk from breaking when it hit the ground!'
He proceeded to drop the chalk, but as he did, it slipped out of his fingers, off his shirt cuff, onto the pleat of his pants, down his leg, and off his shoe. As it hit the ground, it simply rolled away unbroken.
The professor's jaw dropped as he stared at the chalk. He looked up at the young man, and then ran out of the lecture hall.
The young man who had stood, proceeded to walk to the front of the room and shared his faith in Jesus for the next half hour. 300 students stayed and listened as he told of God's love for them and of His power through Jesus. In light of the many jokes we share wif one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke, it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking.............
Isn't it funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell.
Isn't it funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Isn't it funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, think, say, or do anything the Bible says. Or is it scary Isn't it funny how someone can say 'I believe in God' but still follow Satan (who, by the way, also 'believes' in God ). Isn't it funny how you can send a thousand jokes through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, But when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing.
Isn't it funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene pass freely through cyberspace, but the public discussion of Jesus is suppressed in the school and workplace. Isn't it funny how someone can be so fired up for Christ on Sunday, but be an invisible Christian the rest of the week.
I'm New Here !!!
Di Xiong Jie Mei Men Ping An ! Sorry i do not have chinese words in my computer. Arh finally i know how to CREATE blog le. Took me so long but still not sure what functions it have so post it here to tell me Thanks !
Haydn Cello Concerto in C Major
- Ok, wow. Sophia actually blogged! (once again) So anyway, I shall blog about my favourite thing too - MUSIC! And today/tonight, as is all other day/night, I'm introducing Haydn Cello Concerto in C Major to JYF! This is a must listen, must enjoy, must give-thanks piece. Anyone who has this recording for all the movements, lend to me!!
I say, please please please, listen to it.
Ok, for the next piece, a thumbs-up from Esther - Czardas by Monti, played by Vengerov and Bassiona Amorosa Its a pretty combi of violin, cello and 2 doublebass
And how can we forget about Karajan? Dvorak - Symphony No. 9 "From the New World" - 4th movement
He's much younger conducting beethoven recordings of course, but he'll always be the best in my heart! It's rather sad to see him ageing like that though, and it would be flashing if he had not left for Heaven that early.
He conducts almost an hour of pieces with his eyes CLOSED! Now how cool is that! God put these people around us!*
