The Day That God Listened to the Voice of a Man
“And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel” (Joshua 10:14) There was not a day like this one. It was a day when the sun stood still. It was a day when God fought for His people. It was a day when God listened to the voice of a man. Joshua and the Israelites were fighting their enemies in the land of Canaan. It seemed that they needed more time in order to utterly defeat their foes. Jos

No "Christ" in Christmas
In less than two weeks’ time, most of “Christendom” will be celebrating the birth of Christ on Christmas Day, 25 December. During this period, we are constantly being bombarded with messages like “Christ is the reason for the season”. Various “churches” have organized Christmas events and put up Christmas banners.

AI: A Powerful Tool, But Beware the Pitfalls
Recently, I had the privilege to learn more about Artificial Intelligence (AI). Last month, I attended a 2-day AI course organized by SMU academy, and also, during the Four Seas Lectureship, bro Jonathan Burns delivered an insightful lesson about using AI in our Bible study.

I can’t even remember the name of the American speaker, neither can I recall the topic that was preached. But I do remember that this particular gospel moved me to be baptized 1 month later. A person cannot be converted in one night… do Gospel Meetings work? The Philippian jailor was converted in one night (Acts 16:25-33). Howe

It is often said that distance makes the heart grow fonder. After spending my first two years of married life separated by the Pacific Ocean and then some, I feel that this is a rather unique experience that I have learned and strengthened my faith from.
