I can't stop feeding myself!!!! ^.^"

By Daughter Of Sarah -

Yes, yes, you read me right.

I eat-like-there-is-no-tomorrow on the Word of Christ =) I eat like I do when I stumble on a good sashimi buffet - whack ah! Mai tu liao! =D

The insatiable appetite began some 5 years ago when I stumbled out of Roman Catholicism to discover the Truth found in the Bible & I've not stopped eating my healthy diet of Psalms, Proverbs, Gospel, Epistles and a pinch of OT since then.

My favourite munch? Grace - the amazing grace of Christ Jesus.

What I find will cause Food Poisoning? Law, Condemnation and Guilt.

It is good to feed on the Word, but it is also important to feed on the right substance.

Mixing Law with Grace is not advisable... it will cause a spiritual tummyache. It's like consuming Hot Soup with Ice Cool Refreshing Water. =p The mix will cause your tummy to hurt and be confused.

Some victims of Spiritual Poisoning caused by over-consumption of a "Law & Grace Mix Salad" go around spewing hurt around because they were hurt by the wrong teachings. It is like a bad flu bug and can be transmitted like an air-borne virus - spreading anger, misunderstandings, grief, hatred, confusion and doubt.

Whilst Law helps one understand what is wrong with oneself, it is Grace that helps bring about the solution to those problems.

Law does not solve problems; it is like a most feared food critic that comes to tell you how good or bad your food is & condemn your restaurant to winding down, but it can't tell you how to better it. No cook is perfect after all, only the Maker Himself is. Cooking with the food critic hovering over you merely confuses and embitters you. It might even cause you to resolve never to stop cooking forever or to just become a passionless cook that churns mediocre stew out - just for the sake of churning something out.

In comparison, the Holy Spirit is like a Chef who has taken you in as an Apprentice. It comes to us with Grace-filled messages, encouragements from the covenants made by our Abba Father in the bible and whispers to us reciepes for finding joy, peace, love, freedom, security, healing, forgiveness and good fruits in our life. Cooking your life stew under its watchful eye, you know when to add the salt and how much, when to stir, when to turn the fire up and when to turn it down. It teaches you all things and as you cook, the stew just gets better and better.

Having spoken about food, this hungribunni is feeling a tad hungry. Happy munching my bizarre post as I hop along for a bite. =)

Sermon 31/08/2008 - Pastor Lian (NCC)

By -
Pastor Lian has been in NCC for 20 years!! Joke- There was this really old obese lady who was so fat she had serious heart problem. One day she had heart attack and brought her to hospital and she died on op table. She came face to face with God and said sheepishly I guess my time is up… and God said no you are still young you are only 50 plus and you are a NCCer - u can live till 120 years. She woke up and told the doctor and told the doc she just want to have something else done. So she had an extreme makeover. It took a few mths and as she stepped out of the hospital, a car knocked her down and she died - God was as surprised to see her as she was to be back there. Just then, the angels sheepishly admitted - they could not recognise her. Lol. ---------------------------------------------------------- From young, Pastor Prince has always said - "God said", "God can" - he has always possessed a good opinion of God. 14 years from moving to The Rock location - 2 x 7 ...

What the Anointing Oil is & Prayer for the Anointing Oil

By -
Pastor Prince from New Creation Church has recently called upon the church members to use the Anointing Oil to bless every area of our lives. He had gone to Tiberius Church in Indonesia and seen how the anointing oil has made a difference to the Christians there. The senior pastor of Tiberius Church, Pastor Yesaya Pariadji, had been led by the Father to get his church to use the anointing oil radically. He had a vision of a biblical quotation when he was still not yet a Christian - he had no idea what it was. When he became a pastor, he finally understood what it meant. He felt very led to get his church to use anointing oil so they went ahead and used it; their testimonials are plentiful and amazing. Pastor Prince being a huge believer in Sola Scriptura, decided to discern further, pray about this and read up on the scriptural references on Anointing Oil before telling us to use it. He believes in doing things biblically - meaning we can be radical in our faith (for example our churc...

You have Comeback Power - Joel Osteen (Transcript) Pt 1

By Daughter Of Sarah -
I like to start with something funny - I heard about this pastor, he decided to skip church one Sunday and go play golf. He told his assistant he wasn't feeling well and he drove to another city's gold course there so no one would recognise him. He teed off at the first hole. All of a sudden a huge gust of wind caught his ball, carried it an extra hundred yard and blew it right into the hole for a 421 yard hole-in-one. The angel looked at God and asked, "What didcha do that for?" God smiled and said, "Who's he gonna tell?" Alright. Hold up your bible. Say it like you mean it - “This is my bible I am what it says I am, I have what it says I have, I can do what it says I can do. Today I will be taught the Word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert, my heart is receptive, I will never be the same. In Jesus’s name.” God bless you. I want to talk to you today about how you have Comeback power. We all face situations that seem like they could bury us - the...
