BEHOLD, I HAVE COME TO DO YOUR WILL
THE LIMITATION OF THE LEVITICAL SACRIFICIAL SYSTEM
As we look forward to celebrating Easter, it is good for us to consider what it means for the Lord Jesus to die for our sins. Each time we think about the Lord’s suffering on the cross, let’s seek to re-appreciate His love and commitment to us. Jesus came to atone for our sins that the Old Testament animal sacrifice system could not. When the Lord instituted the Levitical sacrificial system, it was meant to be a shadow of the good things that would come (Heb. 10:1). It was not meant to be the final product of how we should relate to the Father and in the attaining of redemption of our sins. The law could not make a person perfect. The sacrificial system also cannot make a person justified and perfect in the eyes of the Lord.

This picture was taken at a coffee house over-looking acres of rice fields in Bali. I was taking a few photos of this lone labourer working the fields when he suddenly looked at me and smiled.

The theme for Family Camp this year was "Fishers of Men". We learnt about our personal faith and relationship with God, which needs to be cultivated first, before we will be able to reach out to others.
Nature Sings Out the Lord's Glory
It was one of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen. On top of a cliff at Bali, I saw God’s creation in one of its majestic displays of glory and praise to its Creator.
Treating Our Old Like Gold
How can we think of others instead, this Chinese New Year? One great way we can be outward-looking this CNY is to show respect to our parents and our elderly relatives.

The Triumph Over Death & the Triumphant Life
The Apostle Paul was a man to whom God revealed many secrets – things which had been hidden in God, wrapped up in Christ, and kept away from man since he first walked on earth.
Filial Piety
Chinese New Year is here! When I think of Chinese New Year, I think of family. Does “family” also feature strongly in the Scriptures? The answer is yes!

As I come to the end of my undergraduate studies, I have much to be thankful for as I reflect on how I have been blessed by the Lord!
He Shall Be Like A Tree
As young people, we often feel uncertain of the future. Questions arise in our hearts: Am I going to make it in life? Will my next year of studies go smoothly? How will I get through my army days?
