The Following Session on March 6th!


Bible Study: Homework (February 27th)

Hey guys and girlzz, how are ya'll?! Hope all things are going well for you!
Last Saturday, we went to Teacher Mun Wai's house for a bible study session on "homework". Well.. .. .. she didn't exactly talked a whole lot on homework, but homework was part of this big picture she "painted" for us.. .. ..

We arrived at her place at 2.30-ish. We were given two pails and nets before being sent on a mission to kidnap some kiddy fishes within half an hour. oh yes, kiddies, 50 of 'em all! muahaha - 50+ small little tiny fishes(guppies) that ended up at teacher mun wai's house - Don't worry they're still alive.

After that, Teacher Mun Wai spoke on the greatest commandment which is taken from Mark 12:28-31(NIV)
One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"

29"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'31The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'There is no commandment greater than these."

Love.. Love.. Love.. So how do we show this love? One of the ways that we can show love is through the actions we do:

1) By obeying Him

If we say we love Him, we should learn how to obey Him. we can look at an example given in,

Colossians 3:23

23Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, 24since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

this passage talks about slaves submitting to their masters. However, we can look at the heart, purpose and intent of people doing these things on earth. Before we continue, lets also look at

Matthew 5:16

16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

God has given us roles to play in life. Most of us are students, daughters and sons, brothers and sisters, or even brothers and sisters in Christ. It is when we play our roles well, people can see God in us and that is the way that we can show this love to God. It wouldn't be right if we were to say that we love God and yet neglect all our responsibilities for that is not waht God wants of us.

As we soar through this month, how well do you think you're playing this role as a student? Let's do our best in everything that we do that they world around us may see God in us and praise the Father in Heaven.

2) By Trusting Him

The second thing that we can do to show love is to trust in God as we become obedient to Him. ESPECIALLY, when we feel like we're failing. It's easy to trust when things are calm and easy, the test comes when things are falling apart and feel tough.

In all that we do, we should always trust Him to lead you on and that He has a purpose for everything that happens. Therefore, do not give up even when you feel like doing so! You have a God whom created the world and loves you to fall on, depend on, and trust on!



That's all for the bible study, hope that all we learn together as brothers and sisters remain in our hearts and mind as we live out our lives as Students Of Absolute Righteousness!

Let's stay near the Word with our knees to the earth.
