<p><img src="/assets/2007/6/16/GrampiansSmall.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>This has been another blessed week with the Church Family Camp at the Grampians. Thank God for wonderful time that He provided for us to gather together to study the Scriptures together and to be led by Rev Quek Suan Yew and also for Constance and Timothy Tan in leading the children’s messages. This year’s theme of ‘Growing in Love’ centers around the principle motivation for all Christians and the manifold aspects of what growing in Christian love means.</p>

It has been about 4 years since our last visit from Rev Quek, and this year’s theme of ‘Growing in Love’ has been a timely reminder to all, new and seasoned believers, about the motivation that we should have in doing anything in life as we testify of the work which God does in our lives.</p> <p><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Bethel2008Camp-GrowingInLove"><img

<p><img title="The Planet Earth" src="/assets/2008/2/27/genesis.jpg" alt="The Planet Earth" /></p> <p>The book of Genesis and four other books – Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy – are known as the Torah (Heb.hrwt). These five books were written by Moses (Exodus 24:4, Numbers 33:2, Deuteronomy 5:22; 31:9). The Torah, comprising five books, is one of three parts of the Hebrew Old Testament. The other two parts are: the Prophets (Heb. nabi’im) and the Writings (Heb. ketobim). The order of the thirty – nine books in the Hebrew version is slightly different from the English version. The reason is because the English version is based on the Septuagint. The name “Genesis,” which means “creation” or “generation” is taken from the Septuagint (LXX). But the Hebrew title of the book of Genesis is bereshit which is the first word of the first sentence of the book, and it means “In the beginning”.</p> <p>Pastor Rev.

These five books were written by Moses (Exodus 24:4, Numbers 33:2, Deuteronomy 5:22; 31:9). The Torah, comprising five books, is one of three parts of the Hebrew Old Testament. The other two parts are: the Prophets (Heb. nabi’im) and the Writings (Heb. ketobim). The order of the thirty – nine books in the Hebrew version is slightly different from the English version. The reason is because the English version is based on the Septuagint. The name “Genesis,” which means “creation” or “generation” is taken from the Septuagint (LXX). But the Hebrew title of the book of Genesis is bereshit which is the first word of the first sentence of the book, and it means “In the beginning”.</p> <p>Pastor Rev.

<p><img title="Esther and Mordecai" src="/assets/2007/7/30/Esther.jpg" alt="Esther and Mordecai" /></p> <p>The book of Esther is another one of the thirty-nine books of the Old Testament that is inspired by God and is therefore infallible, inerrant, completely reliable and trustworthy. Although the name of God is not mentioned even once in the ten chapters of the book, it is not a legitimate basis for rejecting its canonicity. Many political leaders and nations in the world do not mention God or even reject Him, but that does not change the fact that He exists and He is very much involved in the affairs of men (Isaiah 45:15) . So in the book of Esther, in every turn of events, the unseen hand of God was working out the purpose and plan of His will. Indeed, if it had not been for God, who played a vital part in the flow of events as historically recorded, the book would not be easily understood. The inspired divine writer of the book is unknown. Some have suggested Mordecai. Others think that the writer was a Persian Jew who had returned to Judaea, and wished to commemorate the celebration of Purim with the children of Israel to remember God’s deliverance. Whatever the case may be, the identity of the writer is not as important as the fact that someone whom God had inspired had written the record. Today, we can understand why the Israelites yearly celebrate the Festival of Purim (February-March). Besides explaining the origin of Purim, the most instructive teaching of Esther is that of the providence of God sovereignly working over nations and individuals. A prayerful and careful study of the book should bring comfort and joy, increase confidence and courage, and change our small view of God into awesome amazement.</p> <p>Pastor Rev.

The series of messages on the theme of ‘Christian Living in the Last Days’ was timely and apt for our times.</p> <div> <img src="/assets/2007/7/30/2007ChurchCamp.jpg" alt="" /> </div> <p>The following article was published in the Church Weekly (15/07/2007) under the pastoral chat and has been edited for presentation purposes. Please note that the recordings are now available to be downloaded off this page for your own review.</p> <h2>My dear Bethelites,</h2> <p>This has been a truly blessed week with the Church Family Camp at the Grampians. Thank God for the time He provided for us to gather together to study the Scriptures together and to be led by Rev Dr Jeffrey Khoo. The series of messages on the theme of ‘Christian Living in the Last Days’ was timely and apt for our times.</p> <p>There was an introductory message provided by Pastor Khoo who encouraged us to live out the truth found in Hebrews 10:19-25. We were encouraged to understand that Christianity is the ‘new and living way’ and we ought to draw near to God and to focus on others to provoke one another to love and good works.</p> <h2>Introduction Message – Pastor Khoo</h2> <p>Our introductory message was delivered by our Pastor. It centered around the passage of Hebrews 10:19-25 – which reminds us about the work of Jesus Christ as the only way to God.</p> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/0_Introduction_Message-Pastor_Khoo-20070708.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Introduction Message – 12.1 MB</a></p> <h2>Message 1 – “Make Sure Your Salvation”</h2> Message 1 was titled “Make Sure Your Salvation” (1 Peter 1:1-9). The message was centered around the nature of true faith: <ul> <li>knowing the Gospel, </li> <li>agreeing with the underlying message of the Gospel (man is unable to save himself), and </li> <li>believing or submitting to the Gospel truth. If any one of the elements is missing, true faith is not in existence.</li> </ul> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/1_Make_Sure_Of_Your_Salvation-Dr_Jeffery_Khoo-20070709.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Make Sure Of Your Salvation – 21.6 MB</a></p> <h2>Message 2 – “Are You Growing In Your Spiritual Life?”</h2> <p>Message 2 was titled “Are You Growing In Your Spiritual Life?” (1 Peter 2:1-12). This was focused on ensuring we understand that we need to grow in our spiritual life. A sign of a true believer is the appetite for God’s Word, as the illustration in v2 provides that as newborn babes would demand milk, new believers should similarly be demanding to have God’s Word to grow and mature.</p> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/2_Are_You_Growing_In_Your_Spiritual_Life-Dr_Jeffery_Khoo-20070709.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Are You Growing In Your Spiritual Life – 24.7 MB</a></p> <h2>Message 3 – “Using The Right Bible”</h2> <p>Message 3 was titled “Using the Right Bible” (1 Peter 1:13-2:3). The message was focused on emphasising the need for us to recognise that Satan’s usual pattern of attack is to aim at God’s Word. We should all be aware of this and make sure we know the basis for why we need to preciously guard and stand firm on God’s Truth. Critically, we need to appreciate 2 Timothy 3:16 and understand that God’s inspired Word is both verbal and plenary.</p> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/3_Using_The_Right_Bible-Dr_Jeffery_Khoo-20070710.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Using The Right Bible – 29.6 MB</a></p> <h2>Message 4 – “Submission To Authorities”</h2> <p>Message 4 was titled “Submission to Authorities” (1 Peter 2:9-25). and is aimed at highlighting submission to human authorities as a sign of the Holy Spirit in us, as this is not entirely possible without the Holy Spirit in our hearts. Rebellion and imperfect submission is the trademark of the world we live in. By submitting and yielding to those in authority (where it does not contravene the God’s Word): our employers, those in government, and law enforcers; we are able to create opportunities for those around us to see that we are different, separated, and witness to them more effectively on our faith.</p> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/4_Submission_To_Authorities-Dr_Jeffery_Khoo-20070710.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Submission To Authorities – 25.5 MB</a></p> <h2>Message 5 – “Be Prepared To Suffer”</h2> <p>Message 5 was titled “Be Prepared To Suffer” (1 Peter 3:8-18) and focuses on how we ought to reflect Our Christian nature within by not repaying evil for evil by with good. This high standard of Christian living is challenging and is not possible without the Holy Spirit within us.</p> <p>An example illustrating this was from Daniel 3:16-18 where we read of a measured and controlled response to adversity faced by 3 saints: Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, Daniel’s 3 friends. They refused to bow to King Nebuchadnezzar’s new idol as this would violate God’s laws. Despite the King’s harsh sentence to burn them in the furnace, the 3 saints respectfully entreated the King to explain their faith and accepted the King’s sentence.</p> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/5_Be_Prepare_To_Suffer-Dr_Jeffery_Khoo-20070711.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Be Prepared To Suffer – 27 MB</a></p> <h2>Message 6 – “Be Indoctrinated With God’s Word”</h2> <p>Message 6 was entitled “Be Indoctrinated with God’s Word” (1 Peter 5:1-4) and it stressed the importance for us to be truly grounded on God’s Word. Our Christian walk can be easily compromised where we don’t know and understand enough Scriptures.</p> <p>There are also examples from Church History where Athanasius stood up to Arius in the controversy surrounding the nature of Christ: whether He was 100% God or some lesser percentage. Thank God for Athanasius’ knowledge of Scripture and resulted in a convincing vote of the Bishops in attendance of the Council of Nicene.</p> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/6_Be_Indoctrinated_With_Gods_Word-Dr_Jeffery_Khoo-20070711.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Be Indoctrinated With God’s Word – 25.8 MB</a></p> <h2>Message 7 – “Know Your Enemy”</h2> <p>Message 7 was entitled “Know Your Enemy” (1 Peter 5:1-11). This sobering message was to alert us to the nature of Satan and how he works to prowl on those who are weak or young in the faith, just as roaring lions would prey on the weaker (young and sick animals) prey when hunting. The main mode of attack is to tempt us to succumb to the sin of pride. The only effective antidote for such attacks is to constantly check our hearts, to be clothed in humility and to quickly build our faith by having a good understanding of Scriptures. Satan himself is the expert in pride, as this was his undoing, thinking that he could usurp God.</p> <p><a href="http://2007bethelchurchcampmessages.s3.amazonaws.com/7_Know_Your_Enemy-Dr_Jeffery_Khoo-20070712.mp3"><img src="/assets/2007/7/30/mp3Icon.gif" alt="" /> Download Audio – Know Your Enemy – 20.5 MB</a></p> <p>The messages have been recorded and everyone is encouraged to get a copy to listen to and to search the Scriptures earnestly whilst listening to them. Elder Charles Choong will be willing to make copies available.</p> <p>During testimony time, it was clear that everyone was touched by the week’s messages and interaction. There were moving testimonials and some challenging personal commitments were shared with the other campers. Indeed, it was a blessed week for all who attended.</p> <p>Next year’s camp is booked at Grampians again. It is a beautiful site and prayerfully, everyone in the congregation can make it. The confirmed booking dates are from Tuesday, March 25 2008 to Friday, March 28 2008, immediately following the Easter long weekend. Please plan to make yourselves available and don’t miss out on such a blessed week of studying God’s Word and fellowship with fellow believers.</p> <p>In Christ, Dn James Nah</p> jasonn tag:www.bethelbpc.com.au,2007-07-18:23 2007-07-18T00:25:00Z 2007-08-04T21:56:03Z

<p><img title="Paul of Tarsus writing a letter" src="/assets/2007/7/18/PaulTarsus.jpg" alt="Paul of Tarsus writing a letter" /></p> <p>The study of the book of Acts should benefit the diligent and conscientious student in many ways. It is the only divinely inspired account of the beginning and early expansion of the Christian church. It is our main and reliable source of information of the Christians and the church in that period. Luke recorded the period which began with the ascension of Christ (around A.D. 30) to the time when Paul was under house arrest (A.D. 62) – a period of about thirty two years. Although it was not his intention to give a total historical account of the church as a whole, Luke aimed at giving a proper account of the geographical expansion of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and its supernatural origin. The account of the charges brought up by the Jews against Gentile Christians at the Jerusalem Council shows Luke’s purpose to eliminate any religious suspicions against Judaism by the Gentile believers. In addition, Luke’s accounts of Paul’s trials before the Roman governors show that Christianity was not and is not against the Roman government.</p> <p>Pastor Rev.

<p><img title="Naomi entreating Ruth and Orpah to return to the land of Moab by William Blake, 1795" src="/assets/2007/5/24/Ruth.jpg" alt="Naomi entreating Ruth and Orpah to return to the land of Moab by William Blake, 1795" /></p> <p>Ruth is a wonderful book. It is loved by everyone who would read it. The theme of love, commitment, kindness, loyalty and integrity fill in the book. These themes are timeless. Ruth is one of two books in the Bible that bears the name of a woman. The other is the book of Esther. The inspired writer of the book is unknown. Jewish tradition named Samuel as the writer. The date is around 1050 B.C. and the historical background of the events in the book was during the period of the Judges. Although it is a small book containing only four chapters, it is not lacking in the knowledge and understanding of God, and the marvelous and gracious way He deals with people who trust and honour Him. The first chapter of the book describes the tragedy experienced by Naomi and her return to Bethlehem with Ruth, her daughter-in-law, who expressed commitment to remain with her. The next chapter features the providential meeting between Ruth and Boaz who treated her with great kindness. The third chapter relates how Naomi devised a plan to inform Boaz of his right as her kinsman-redeemer to take Ruth as his wife. Boaz responded favourably. The final chapter records how Boaz became the kinsman-redeemer and married Ruth. A son was born who was the grandfather of David.</p> <p>Pastor Rev. Stephen Khoo – <i>Ruth 1 Commentary</i></p>
