After such amazing hymns and melodies from the choir and orchestra, here are some of the things I learnt from the teachings in the Bible Exposition.
The power of God can work in us to truly understand.
1 Corinthians 5:3
For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed.
More than 30% of Americans are now atheist, which means they no longer believe in God, because they believe the church is only for the pastor's to enrich themselves.
The Chinese don't believe in God.
Psalms 53:1
The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
Those who say they is no God according to the Bible, they are fools, they don't have logical education, they don't understand.
They are so many proves in the Bible, in science, in reality and in so many ways to prove that God do truly exist.
It is foolishness not to believe in God, it is wisdom to believe that we have a God who is the Almighty.
If we believe in God, he created man from the dust of the ground.
Genesis 2:7
Man is a direct creation of man from the dust of ground and not from evolution, or single cell evolutions.
It is senseless to teach these kind of thing without basis.
There is no link atall between man and the lower forms of animal.
The DNA is part of us and is not found on apes. it is passed from parents to offsprings, it is called the blueprint.
How can they be creation when they is no creator, the big bang theory, how can they be an explosion when no one started it.
Genesis 1:1
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
The heavens was created first before the earth, the universe is more holder than the earth even according to the scientific research.
Acts 13:47-49
For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth. And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
Hebrews 3:13-15
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
When we hear the word of God, we should hearken to the voice of God we hear and receive the baptism, if we don't listen they will be consequences.
Proverbs 1:24-29
Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord :
When God calls we should answer, because in the Bible verses above, these are the consequences we will get for not accepting the word of God.
2 Corinthians 6:2
(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
Baptism is important as a believer, so that our sins will be cleans and we will be born again.
James 4:17
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
Everyday that we do not do what we know is a sin before God.
When a person dies, there is nothing else the body can do, even if we keep praying for the death, there is no way to change the person's destiny anymore.
Ecclesiastes 9:10
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.
Revelation 20:12
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Once we are dead, we cannot do anything anymore, the basis of our judgement will be the things we did while we were alive. We should take the chance to do good as much as we can, because we will be judged by these.
Masses or prayer for the dead cannot change anything no matter how long we have to pray for a dead person.
Ecclesiastes 12:7
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Our body returns to dust and our spirit returns to the creator.
Ezekiel 37:4-6
Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord . Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord .
On judgement God shall reconstruct our body and we shall rise to face our judgement.
