How to Pray?
The following question came to me from some of the congregants:
Larger than the Heavens
When the Lord appeared to Moses in the burning bush and sent him to Pharaoh to deliver the people of Israel from the land of servitude, He said to him “I have surely seen the oppression of My people and have heard their cry. So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey.” (Exodus 3:7-8). The land of Canaan is geographically small, not as large as the land of Egypt. It is only 30 miles wide, limited by the Dead Sea and the Jordan River from the East and the Mediterranean Sea from the West. Therefore, it is clear that God means something other than the large land because the people of Israel were choked and oppressed in the land of Egypt despite its large size.

The Birth of the King of kings
When we hear about the birth of a king or an heir of a king it occurs to us how much attention this heir will get from people and how much honor and glory will envelop this important event. However the events of the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, are rather mystifying!
Distinct Characteristics of the Christian Faith (3) Love
God is Love. This phrase was mentioned twice in one chapter in the New Testament (1 John 4: 8, 16) and has been the embodiment of the Christian faith as a whole. It has also been a distinct identity for Christians and for the Christian faith. Perhaps one would need to research the history books to uncover how and when this phrase was chosen as a symbol to Christianity and Christians. Who chose this phrase” Where it was first used? How did it spread? In any case, this short phrase is indeed the most powerful and most representative of the Christian faith as a doctrine, on the one hand, and a way of life and a code of conduct on the other.
