Our Story
(:
"The good news, this revival in E149 was started on Oct'05; within a year under Gabriel's leadership we multiply on Nov'06.
The better news is that within 9 months time we multiplied again on August'07.
Now finally the best news is this, the revival is burning on stronger and stronger in the 3rd generation of E149, and they shall arise to greater heights!
How did we did it? OUR God is Faithful! Jesus is the answer =)
In closing, One CG in 21 months time grew and became Four CG.
Although four CG is not alot, but give it time, give it focus, it will grow.
From four CG, who will they be in another 21 months time and another 21 months time?
Glory be to God!"
Verses of the season
(:
1 Corinthians 9:19-23 (TMSG) Paul's Use of His Freedom.
Even though I am free of the demands and expectations of everyone,
I have voluntarily become a servant to any and all in order to reach a wide range of people:
religious, nonreligious, meticulous moralists, loose-living immoralists,
the defeated, the demoralized—whoever.
I didn't take on their way of life.
I kept my bearings in Christ—but I entered their world and tried to
experience things from their point of view.
I've become just about every sort of servant there is in my attempts to
lead those I meet into a God-saved life.
I did all this because of the Message.
I didn't just want to talk about it;
I wanted to be in on it!
The message:The first sentence that Jesus say after he was Resurrect. - Women, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking to? Are you guys weeping because of sickness,studies,career etc. Jesus can raise a dead, Jesus can raise all of your troubles you're facing now ! (:

Have you been following pastor Kong and Phil twitter? Here's some glimpses for you.
This is from pastor Phil: Never let yourself be brought down to the level of someone who hates you by hating them back. Love your enemies!
This is from pastor Kong: Just brought Sun and Dayan to the LA Zoo, which is 6 miles from our home. Sun had to sit in a wheelchair but happy to get some fresh air :)

Holiness In The Camp
For the LORD your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you and give your enemies over to you; therefore your camp shall be holy, that He may see no unclean thing among you, and turn away from you. Deuteronomy 23:14
Many Christians get very intimidated by the word “holiness.” Its very connotation seems old-fashioned and abstract. What exactly is holiness? How do I become holy? For most nonbelievers, their concept of holiness is one that is very solemn and somber. To live a holy life is to live a life that is dark and gloomy; a life devoid of color, fun and excitement.
Unfortunately, that is also the idea many Christians have whenever they think about being holy. But nothing can be further from the truth. We worship God in the beauty of His holiness (1 Chron. 16:29). That means holiness is something attractive and beautiful. No wonder people followed Jesus everywhere He went. Even little children wanted to come near to hug Him. Holiness makes a believer a very attractive witness for Christ. The Bible says that God is glorious in holiness (Ex. 15:11). Holiness carries with it the glory of the Lord. “Glory” means two things:
(1) Light. A holy person is never dull or gloomy. On the contrary, he stands out head and shoulders over everyone else. The Christian who is holy is a bright and radiant person, shining powerfully for Jesus.
(2) Weight. In the Hebrew language, the word “glory” is kabod, which means weight or substance. The Christian who is holy is a person who carries the tangible presence of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit comes with a very substantial presence. When a holy person walks into a room, the anointing of God goes into that room with him. When a holy person speaks, his words carry weight and authority.
When Jesus spoke, everybody listened: “Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, ‘What is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him’” (Mark 1:27).
Deuteronomy 23:14 says we have to make a decision to keep our camp—the house of God—spiritually clean. God only walks on holy ground. Our words, actions and thoughts have to be sanctified because we can build an environment where God enjoys coming into. And when God walks among us, there will always be blessing, provision and protection. Make a decision today not to entertain any more unclean ideas, conversations or deeds that would grieve the Holy Spirit. God says, “Be holy, for I am holy” (1 Pet. 1:16).
