Revelation 1:1-2 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.

The word “servants” means “bond-slaves”. It describes those performing the service of a slave by unquestioning obedience. It describes Christ’s servants. All who will take heed to His Second Coming and live their lives in the light of it.

We are reminded of the man Noah living in the midst of the godless world before the judgment of the global flood who obeyed fully God’s instruction to build an ark – Genesis 6:8, 13-14, 22 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD… 13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. 14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch… 22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.

Revelation 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

This book is the unveiling of future events leading to the Second Coming of Christ ushering in the transition from time to eternity, here, spoken of, as the Revelation of Jesus Christ.

Revelation 1:1-3 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: 2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

The study of the Book of Revelation holds the key to unlocking the door of understanding to current world events. As the future is unveiled before us in study of the Book of Revelation, it provides the clues to understanding current events leading to the Second Coming of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, the climatic reunion between the church, the bride of Christ, and her bridegroom, Jesus Christ!

2 Corinthians 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. The second epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi, a city of Macedonia, by Titus and Lucas.

It was John Newton who wrote this rendition of the Apostle Paul benediction to the Corinthian Church to the tune Sardis by Ludwig van Beethoven.

May the Grace of Christ Our Saviour

May the grace of Christ our Saviour,
And the Father’s boundless love,
With the Holy Spirit’s favour,
Rest upon us from above.

2 Corinthians 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. The second epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi, a city of Macedonia, by Titus and Lucas.

This is the pronouncement of the blessing of God upon the congregation of God’s people with a prayer for God’s guidance in the days ahead. It is the invoking of the Triune God to make a good way for His people as they are committed to the Lord’s perpetual care.

Lord Dismiss Us

Lord dismiss us with Thy blessing, May Thy peace our ways attend!
Send us forth to do Thy bidding, Leading men to Christ our Friend.
May we never, may we never, Stray from Thy almighty hand!

Baptism of Mr Tang Kok Kwan

Thank God for the baptism of Mr Tang Kok Kwan (husband of Mdm Peh Choo Pun and father of Jonathan Tang Meng Wei) on 26 September 2019. He suffered a haemorrhage stroke on Friday – 13 September and was sent to the Sengkang General Hospital for treatment. Under normal circumstances he would require three operations to treat his condition. Due to his health condition and age, there was no operation.

Our brother Jonathan himself suffered a haemorrhage stroke five years ago and underwent these operations. I recalled a portion of his skull was removed for the operation and later he had to bear the pain of putting a metal cap to replace that portion of skull removed, in a painful process of stapling. Thank God he has recovered well enough to continue normal work and driving. As a result of his stroke, by the providence of God, Jonathan’s family consisting of his wife, Jacqueline, and two children Jovan and Janelle and mother Mdm. Peh came to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Tang family were baptised by our late Pastoral Advisor Rev Dr Tow Siang Hwa in 2014.

Jonathan’s father, Mr Tang Kok Kwan, however, did not follow the family to come to church although he had been to church in his younger days. I recall there was a visitation made to Jonathan’s home where my wife and I had the opportunity to witness to Mr Tang, before he had to stay in a nursing home due to his medical condition about 3 years ago.

2 Corinthians 13:11-13 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. Greet one another with an holy kiss. All the saints salute you.

The Apostle Paul’s ministry was not a one man’s work but undergirded by the prayers and support of God’s people who knew him and are co-labouring with him in unseen, often unheard, also unknown to the church in which he was ministering. Here he shared with the Corinthian church that there were other saints who were concerning and were upholding them in prayer and support.

2 Corinthians 13:11-12 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. Greet one another with an holy kiss.

A kindly affection out borne of God’s love filled the heart of the Apostle Paul has he sends a final greeting, concluding his letter to the Corinthian church. He sends them an holy kiss, an sanctified expression of his love for them that God has first imparted to him. It genders peace, God’s peace. A state of harmony and unity, strength and rest amongst the people of God undergirded by the desire to glory God’s Name according to His Word. This is his prayer for the brethren.

2 Corinthians 13:11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

We need to be assured time and again that the Lord is with us to aid us along in life. Have you sent anyone off in the airport before? If you have, you will know that we are quite helpless to provide for the needs of the person who may leave for long periods of time either for work, studies or migrating to a foreign land. Where does our help come? Psalm 121 is a truly blessed traveler’s psalm, to remind us that in our temporal sojourn in this earth, it is God that sustains and keeps us by His power. He says to them, keep trusting the Lord, He will be with you to help you.
