Ephesians 4:20 says, “But you did not so learn Christ”. What does it mean “to learn Christ”? To learn Christ does not mean that because Christ loved people, we should also love people. This is merely imitation. To learn Christ does not mean that we imitate Him; it means that we, within whom Christ dwells, have […]
not just believe in God or fear God, but love Him and set our heart on Him!
This morning I really enjoyed the verse in 1 Cor. 2:9 which says, But as it is written, “Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard and which have not come up in man’s heart; things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” What a wonderful verse! Here it doesn’t […]
our heart is the switch of life – turn your heart to the Lord
Today I enjoyed the verse in Prov 4:23 which says: Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it are the issues of life. Surely we must exercise our spirit, but me must realise that our heart is gateway of life, the entrance and exit of life. The coming in of life and the going […]

take time to behold Christ, to fellowship with Him and absorb Him
Ever since the Lord has appeared to us the first time, we have been captivated by this lovely One. Now we just love to take some time – even “steal” some time from our daily activities/routine/things to do – to fellowship with Him, pray, enjoy Him, read the Word, and just spend time with the […]
our Christian life is a life of preaching the gospel by loving one another
Until the Lord comes, since we are saved, we preach the gospel through our living, our attitude, our words – our very Christian life is a preaching of the gospel. Actually, according to Paul’s word in Phil 1:5-6, it is Christ who does this good work of preaching the gospel. Christ preaches the gospel in […]
