…because we hope in a living God…
On God’s words — read up, teach & grow on it :
1. Be Good?v.1…6?– Nowadays heresies overrun. We have to read and teach Bible everyday – to save ourselves and the others.
2. Be Godly?v.7…12?– Be a man with purpose pursuing eternity and goodness!
3. Be Growing?v.13…16?– Let God works on you, so that God can work on others through you!
?Bible “addiction”?…Last week a friend was back to HK from Canada. Lasy year he asked me how to study Bible . I advised him to focus on the NT, read and learn every book by heart, then write an outline for each book and write down the main point of every chapter. Read it until the verses are in your heart, that anytime you can recall the content of any chapter of any book …This time when I see him again, the brother had read through the NT twice and is reading the third time now. He said he is “addicted “to the Bible! Now he can remember the content of any chapter of any book. Thanks the Lord! ?Why not try it out by yourselves? It works!?

… God’s house…assembly of the living God?
The mystery of godliness — God among men:
1. We become “God’s household”!?v.14…15?– The life of saints is like pillar, hoisting high the truth in the torrent of times!
2. We can sing ”the song of Christ”?v.16?– The core of truth is Christ. God seems to be far away ,but He’s indeed near, even living among us.
May we have “the song of Christ” on us!
*Bro SY Wong ?? is back from Europe, his deep feelings – “There are many alcoholics and gangsters in England.Churches in Edinburgh everywhere , but they are either rebuilt into rave bars or become playground of the drunken! Czech obtained religious freedom, but surprisingly there are few believers in the church…in contrary – Poland -at least 5 or 6 churches in the old zone are full on Sundays , all passageways are crowded with people, kneeing or standing. There are whole-day programs in the square -in memories of devoted saints , singing for praises…”“…If anyone hears my voice and open the door, I wil come in and eat with him, and he with me.”

*Testimony of C. S. Cheng ??? —- Cheng suffered from cancer for years, but lived in joy. He and his wife became gospel messenger. This year his father passed away, his cancer relapsed, and his son Won-kit (20) suspected having a tumor. Cheng despaired like Job. The next day another doctor gave Kit detailed check, and nearly sure it’s deformed blood vessel rather than tumor ! now the son willing to offered his life to Jesus! . In these yrs Cheng lost working ability & relied on a relative. Recently the relative make a charm for Won-kit , forcing Chengs to worship idols, but God’s hands kept the testimony. Pls pray for them—- “may God give them comfort & strength in every good work and word.” (2 Thes 2: 16-17)
