RunNat 2010

There will be an event called ''RunNat2010'' or known as Run For The Nation. So, what is RunNat and what is the purpose of this event?

RunNat is a single morning running event that sees Christians praying as they run throughout selected areas in the city or town where the event is held. The Runners are grouped into teams of three and each Team is required to cover a 5km run of a preselected route passing by homes, schools, commercial areas, government buildings, religious sites and other places of interest. As the Team runs, one will lead in prayer while the other two will agree. With the aim to cover most grounds, the Run adopts the relay style by using Prayer Cards in replacement of batons.

RunNat Objectives
1. Pray for the nation
2. Encourage unity in the body of Christ through the participation of Christians from different churches and Christian organizations.
3. To encourage our youth to remember the nation in prayer.

The run will take place simultaneously in the Klang Valley and in the capital city of each of the 13 states.

WOULD YOU CARRY ME?

This is a song that gives me the hope that God is always with us and He will carry us all the time when we call upon His name.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. (Matthew 11:28-29)

I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand upon the earth. (Job 19:25)

The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him "Immanuel" which means, "God with us." (Matthew 1:23)

Always thank God for everything and having a relationship with God the Father will give you the peace.

God bless,
Ezra

DISCIPLESHIP IS CHRIST IN YOU

To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. (COLOSSIANS 1:27)

"The heavenly Father's plan from the beginning of time was to place His eternal Son in every believer. If you are a Christian, all the fullness of God dwells in you. Christ's life becomes your life. When Christ lives in you, He brings every divine resource with Him. Every time you face a need, you meet it with the presence of the crucified, risen, and triumphant Lord of the universe inhabiting you. When God invites you to become involved in His work, He has already placed His Son in you so that He can carry out His assignment through your life.

This has significant implications for your Christian life. Discipleship is more than acquiring head knowledge and memorizing Scripture verses. It is learning to give Jesus Christ total access to your life so He will live His life through you. Your greatest difficulty will be believing that your relationship with Christ is at the heart of your Christian life. When others watch you face a crisis, do they see the risen Lord responding? Does your family see the difference Christ makes when you face a need? What difference does the presence of Jesus Christ make in your life?

God wants to reveal Himself to those around you by working mightily through you. He wants your family to see Christ in you each day. God wants to express His love through your life. There is a great difference between ""living the Christian life"" and allowing Christ to live His life through you."

General Confession

I felt disappointed once again because of few things...

My parents were disappointed with me because I didn't discuss with them that I'm going to leave St. Gabriel...

Some more, it's by God's guidance that I'm leaving the church with 2 different purpose:-

1) Learn something with my new church
2) Leadership thing

But, its my fault for I didn't tell them about it...I've against the commandment in the Bible that i have to honour my father and my mother...

But I seek forgiveness from God for what I have done...

To all my SGC friends, I'm sorry for what I have done...plz forgive me...stay strong for the Lord...may His Holy Spirit come and anoint you guys...

To the worship team, plz forgive me...I know I've joined the audition but I didn't tell you guys that I'm going to leave...stay strong for the Lord...continue to praise Him in all kinds of ways and keep up the good work...

To my parents, plz forgive me coz I didn't tell you guys about it...

It's not because I felt unsatisfied with you guys...even though I'm joining the other denomination, my blood still an Anglican...

That's all,

God bless,
Ezra

PS: I won't be free till August...I'll be visiting you guys in September...

Di dalam dunia yang semakin dicemari oleh berbagai jenis polusi ini, ada begitu banyak racun yang mengakibatkan berbagai-bagai jenis penyakit. Semakin hari semakin bertambah jenis dan dampak buruknya.

Tetapi dunia ini bukan hanya mengalami pencemaran yang bersifat jasmani saja, ada juga pencemaran yang bersifat rohani.

Wicca: Satan's Little White Lie

I recommend everyone to buy this book...it could help you to know more about Wicca...

What is Wicca...??

Wicca is a Neo-pagan religion that believes the Horned God (Baphomet) and Triple Goddess...Witches of Wicca believe that they are created by Horned God and Triple Goddess on earth but without power so the Triple Goddess created mantras and magic for them...

Note: Wicca is known as ''Old Religion''

These are the principles of Wicca:

1. We practice rites to attune ourselves with the natural rhythm of life forces marked by the phases of the Moon and the seasonal Quarters and Cross Quarters.

2. We recognize that our intelligence gives us a unique responsibility towards our environment. We seek to live in harmony with Nature, in ecological balance offering fulfillment to life and consciousness within an evolutionary concept.

3. We acknowledge a depth of power far greater than that is apparent to the average person. Because it is far greater than ordinary it is sometimes called "supernatural", but we see it as lying within that which is naturally potential to all.

4. We conceive of the Creative Power in the universe as manifesting through polarity-as masculine and feminine-and that this same Creative Power lies in all people, and functions through the interaction of the masculine and feminine. We value neither above the other, knowing each to be supportive of the other. We value sex as pleasure, as the symbol and embodiment of life, and as one of the sources of energies used in magickal practice and religious worship. 2

5. We recognize both outer and inner, or psychological, worlds -- sometimes known as the Spiritual World, the Collective Unconscious, Inner Planes, etc. -- and we see in the interaction of these two dimensions the basis for paranormal phenomena and magickal exercises. We neglect neither dimension for the other, seeing both as necessary for our fulfillment.

6. We do not recognize any authoritarian hierarchy, but do honor those who teach, respect those who share their greater knowledge and wisdom, and acknowledge those who have courageously given of themselves in leadership.

7. We see religion, magick and wisdom-in-living as being united in the way one views the world and lives within it -- a world view and philosophy of life which we identify as Witchcraft, the Wiccan Way.

8. Calling oneself "Witch" does not make a Witch -- but neither does heredity itself, nor the collecting of titles, degrees and initiations. A Witch seeks to control the forces within her/himself that make life possible in order to live wisely and well without harm to others and in harmony with Nature. 3

9. We believe in the affirmation and fulfillment of life in a continuation of evolution and development of consciousness, that gives meaning to the Universe we know, and our personal role within it.

10. Our only animosity towards Christianity, or toward any other religion or philosophy of life, is to the extent that its institutions have claimed to be "the only way," and have sought to deny freedom to others and to suppress other ways of religious practice and belief.

11. As American Witches, we are not threatened by debates on the history of the Craft, the origins of various terms, the origins of various aspects of different traditions. We are concerned with our present and our future.

12. We do not accept the concept of absolute evil, nor do we worship any entity known as "Satan" or "the Devil", as defined by Christian tradition. 4 We do not seek power through the suffering of others, nor do we accept that personal benefit can be derived only by denial to another.

13. We believe that we should seek within Nature that which is contributory to our health and well-being.

But, is Wicca a safe religion...?? The answer is NO...!!!

Why...??

1. Horned God is referring to Satan
2. Practices magic and witchcraft
3. Sexual orientation
4. Wiccan rede: Ain't it harm none, do what thou wilt (Satanism: do what thou wilt)

Remember this:

Do not allow a sorceress to live. (Exodus 22:18)
