20 Apr 2014: "Easter Message"
Jesus Christ conquered death by resurrecting after being crucified, as described in the Bible. His resurrection proved His deity as God and allows believers to pass from death to eternal life. The resurrection is confirmed by eyewitnesses including the apostles who saw and interacted with the resurrected Jesus, and by transformed lives through faith in the resurrection.
Third Day Sermon
The document discusses how Jesus' resurrection established his authority, guarantees future judgment, confirms God has a plan, and is the basis for real hope. It argues that the resurrection shows Jesus willingly gave his life and rose again, proving he is the only way to God and salvation. The resurrection gives believers hope that God keeps his promises and intervenes in human life.
Unpacking Salvation
The document discusses different views on salvation:
1) Calvinism - God unconditionally elects those who will be saved through irresistible grace.
2) Arminianism - God's election is conditional on freely choosing faith. Believers can lose salvation through rejecting God.
3) The document concludes salvation cannot be lost as long as one does not willfully reject God, as Jesus said it is God's will that none be lost.
Grace & truth 2 reset and reboot
This document summarizes key passages and themes from John 5-8:1-11 in the Bible. It discusses how Jesus faced opposition, offered grace freely to all including a woman caught in adultery, and described himself as the bread of life. The document emphasizes that while grace is offered to all, it does not condone sin. It aims to show that Jesus Christ is the source of grace and truth that can save through faith.
Blood and flesh
This document discusses Jesus giving his flesh and blood as true food and drink that provides eternal life. It notes several Bible passages where Jesus describes himself as the bread of life and that one must eat his flesh and drink his blood to abide in him. It emphasizes that through his blood, Jesus provides forgiveness of sins, freedom from bondage, deliverance, healing, protection and spiritual life. It concludes that while no one can fully understand God's ways, through taking communion we have the mind of Christ.
02 19 the battle within
This document is a summary of a church service at SSMC Sungei Way-Subang Methodist Church on 19 Feb 2017. The sermon focused on Romans 7:14-25 and discussed the internal struggle or "battle within" that Christians experience between their sinful desires and wanting to do good. It described this as a daily war against the sinful nature. The sermon emphasized that through acknowledging our weakness and dependence on Jesus Christ, Christians can experience victory over sin, though the struggle continues in this life.
The Lord's Supper- Present
The document discusses the institution and meaning of the Lord's Supper. It begins by summarizing the biblical account of Jesus instituting the Lord's Supper during the Last Supper before his crucifixion. It then explores theological perspectives on the real presence of Christ from the early church councils to the Protestant Reformation. Finally, it describes the spiritual significance of communion as communion with Christ, unity with other believers, and nourishment for the soul through faith in Christ's atoning death.
Lttf Talk 1
The document is an introduction to a series called "Life to the Full" that discusses finding fulfillment in life. It references quotes from Solomon in the Bible expressing dissatisfaction despite wealth and pleasures. Jesus is presented as the answer, offering life to the full as referenced in the Bible. The document claims that either Jesus was the son of God or a madman, as his extraordinary claims could not be from a merely human moral teacher. It poses the question of how Jesus can be considered the only way to a full life.

Through faith in Jesus' sacrifice, believers are connected to God and can receive his grace, power and help through staying connected to him through religious practices. This allows praying to God the creator rather than to oneself.
The document encourages choosing the New Birth path which involves confessing one's sins and accepting

A Mighty Fortress (explanation only)
This document appears to be notes from the song "A Mighty Fortress" based on Psalm 46. It contains verses from the song broken up into lines with annotations on the key elements and themes within each line, including references to God and Satan, God being a mighty fortress, and Christ defeating Satan. The notes discuss how God/Christ are humanity's strength and protection against Satan and evil in the world, and that ultimately truth and God's kingdom will triumph over evil forever.
A Mighty Fortress
The document is a passage from Psalms 46 that describes God as a refuge, strength, and help for those who trust in him. Verses 1-3 establish that God's people will not fear though the earth and mountains are shaken. Verses 4-5 describe a river that brings joy to God's city and how God dwells within it and will help it. Verses 6-7 state that nations and kingdoms will fall but God is with his people and the God of Jacob is their fortress.

Receiving God's Gift
The document is a map showing the conquest of Canaan by the Israelites under the leadership of Joshua. It depicts the major cities and kingdoms of the region, including Hazor, Megiddo, Jerusalem, and the kingdoms of Og and Sihon. The map illustrates the division of the land among the 12 tribes of Israel after their victory over the native Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites and others according to the biblical account.
Inheritance
Having conquered the land of Canaan, Joshua divides the land into the various inheritances for each tribe of Israel. In this we see that God is faithful to keep his promises (but we must be faithful no matter how long it takes)., that our inheritance is much more than we could imagine, and just like the Israelites we must continue to work.
It Is Finished (part 1)
John’s account of the death of Jesus Christ is examined using John’s affirmation that it is true, pointing to the fulfillment of prophecy, and most importantly that the work of redemption is finished as Jesus cried out in triumph.
When Emotions Become Sinful
It is important to know that God made us to have emotions, therefore, having emotions in itself, is not a sin. However, if we are not careful, satan can manipulate our emotions, such as anger, and cause us to hate or kill another person! Satan can lead one to believe that the lust they have is really “love,” justifying acts of adultery, fornication and sodomy.
It Is Finished! (part 2)
John’s account of the death of Jesus Christ is examined using John’s affirmation that it is true, pointing to the fulfillment of prophecy, and most importantly that the work of redemption is finished as Jesus cried out in triumph. This lesson focus' on the final point.
We Know
John concludes his letter by reminding us of the things that we know because we believe and have eternal life: 1) that our Father hears our prayers; 2) that we can overcome sin; and, 3) that we know the true God.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.

Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
