The document discusses ways to strengthen families based on biblical principles. It provides divorce statistics in America, China, and Malaysia. It then outlines biblical roles for husbands, wives, parents and children according to passages like Ephesians 5. Husbands are called to love their wives as Christ loved the church. Wives are to submit to their husbands. Parents command honor from children through obedience, while children should obey, care for and remember their parents' teachings. Strong families are built on principles of love, respect, forgiveness and commitment.

Jesus actually had a lot to say about the Internet.... indirectly of course. Man's nature has not changed over the millenia, only the context in which we live our lives.
The Internet presents many opportunities and challenges to men. This presentation is what was shown during a 35 minute talk to men in May 2011.
Covers topics such as
- Men's purpose
- Internet | Distractions
- Internet | Knowledge
- Internet | Temptation
2 Peter 3: Because some scriptures are hard to understand and some will force them to say things God never intended, Peter warns us to take care.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
