1881 | Die unexposed to Jesus no redemption? | Eph 1:5 | azurelaw | 186431 | ||
An echo to Rom 1:19-20 with a Chinese perspective May I add a little bit of my thought (though I am not an expert). The English word "righteousness" is expressed and developed into Chinese by using "pictograph" and "meaning borrowing words". Perhaps some of you may already knew that Chinese originally develop words with "pictograph". A very simple example is the Chinese word meaning day. Ancient Chinese drew a circle representing the sun and put a dot in the centre. Then we have the word "day" in Chinese. For the English "righteousness", this Chinese word is composed of the upper and the lower part. The upper part was developed from the "drawing of a lamb with fire burning underneath" - this symbolizes the meaning of sacrifice (now, you see how it represents the work of our dear Jesus, though the ancient Chinese did not know Jesus). The lower part is the Chinese word means "I". Therefore, the interperation is that by the sacrificing of the Lamb, we (I am) are able to be called righteous. So, we can see before the gospel was spread to China, God has used His own way to reveal Himself to different nations in the ancient time. Shalom Azure |

1889 | "the two" and "one new man" refer to? | Eph 2:15 | azurelaw | 216187 | ||
Does "the two" here refer to "both groups (the Jews and gentiles)" in v14? If so, what does "into one NEW MAN" mean? Does it refer to the true church (the body of Christ)? Thanks for your help. Shalom Azure |

1893 | Explain Ephesians 3:5-6? | Eph 3:6 | azurelaw | 192714 | ||
Dear Grace, When you read through verse 1 to 6, it clearly talked about the gospel of salvation through Jesus Christ has been extended to gentiles. The mistery of Christ lies in verse 6. Gentiles had no part in the Kingdom of God under the old covenant (see Ch 2 v 12).

1899 | a whatsapp message | Eph 4:14 | azurelaw | 238023 | ||
In about 2 months' time, I have received the below whatsapp message (1st in Chinese, 2nd is this version) twice to my mobile by members of our church. It seems to me that it is pretty much widely spread among Christian circles. However, I refused to forward the message to anyone. I am posting it here is not that I agree with it, but to hope that we may have some discussion (with scriptural support) on it concerning if it (what part "yes", what part "no") is biblical. As I think we should be careful in reading this kind of message before sending it to anybody. If you think it not worth/suitable for discussion on the forum, please feel free to delete it. Thank you and Shalom Azure *************** Please read this to the end. My name is God. You hardly have time for me. I love you and always bless u. I am always with you. I need you to spend 30mns of your time with Me today. Don't pray. Just praise. Today I want this message across the world before midnight. Will you help ? Please do not cut it and I'll help you with something that you are in need of. Just dare Me ! A blessing is coming your way. Pls Drop everything and pass it on. Tomorrow will be the Best Day of your Life. Don't break this chain. Send this to 14 friends in 10mins. Why Do we feel sleepy in Prayer, But stay awake through a 3 hour movie? Why are we so bored when we look at the HOLY BIBLE, But find it easy to read other books? Why is it so easy to ignore a msg about God, Yet we forward the nasty ones? Why are Prayers getting smaller, But bars and clubs are expanding? Why is it so easy to worship a celebrity, But very difficult to engage with God? Think about it, are you going to forward this? Are you going to ignore it, cause you think you will get laughed at? Forward this to all your friends. 80 percent of you won't forward this. God said: If you deny me in front of your friends, I will deny you on the day of judgment: When one door closes , God opens two : If God has opened doors for you, send this message to everyone including me.... God has no BLACKBERRY but he's my favorite contact ... !! He is not on FACEBOOK but he is my best friend .... !! He is not on TWITTER but I still follow him .... !! and even without the INTERNET I am always connected to him .....!! He is not on WHATSAPP but he's always online .....!! Forward this if God's been good to you .. |
