There has been a lot of things happening and as result, this blog has been somewhat neglected but if you are reading this I want you to be informed of  few things that God has let me be a part of. Pray for faithfulness and God's sustenance and that I will trust in Him no matter what: 1. Care groups in Church After finishing our studies in Nehemiah, we now begin a study on the Sermon on the Mount. Its very different from Nehemiah but a worthwhile study. As ever I find myself learning so much as I try to teach. Both the care groups at Young Adults and Uncle HK's have been a blessing. I enjoy serving them and thank them for the privilege of serving them. 2. Acts Baptist Church I recently did two talks for the youths at this church. It was my first time being exposed to ministry at a different church. I gave two talks within the space of a month. One on baptism - what is its purpose and why do it.

The true man of God is heartsick, grieved at the worldliness of the Church, grieved at the toleration of sin in the Church, grieved at the prayerlessness in the Church. He is disturbed that the corporate prayer of the Church no longer pulla down the strongholds of the devil.

Will: Shakespeare, Nietzsche, Frost, O'Conner... Sean: Well that's great. They're all dead. Will: Not to me, they're not. Sean: You can't have a lot of dialogue with them. Will: Not without a heater and some serious smelling salts.

"The law of the Lord is perfect,     reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure,     making wise the simple; the precepts of the Lord are right,     rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure,     enlightening the eyes; the fear of the Lord is clean,     enduring forever; the rules of the Lord are true,     and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold,     even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey     and drippings of the honeycomb. Moreover, by them is your servant warned;     in keeping them there is great reward." Psalm 19:7-11

"The place of resort was now altered, it was no longer the tavern, but the minister's houses that was thronged far more than ever the tavern wont to be." Jonathan Edwards, A Faithful Narrative of the Surprising Work of God, 1736

The tragedy of idolatry is that we imagine God to behave in a certain way and to respond to us in a certain form. Not only do we then bow down to this self created idol but we then invite others to do the same. The real God cannot be imagined. He is known only when He reveals Himself. And He does so through His Word.
