12 October 2014 - ENCS

On Sunday, the "Go" series Pastor Larry did complete
He showed a video of a mission trip in the Philippine heat
Based on Acts 1:8, the series talked of what our purpose should be
Using God's anointing power, we can reach family and community
Breaking through cross-cultural barriers is a way to share the worth
His sermon was not surprisingly titled "To the ends of the earth"
As Singapore is prophesied to be the Antioch of the region
People come in and go out on mission trips by the legion
The apostles went around the world to many different places
All but John were eventually martyred, with joy on their faces
Similarly, reaching out to the world should become our norm
That is why Pastor Larry focused on the word "transform"
For although the world may be under control of the evil one
God has shown his far greater power in all He has done
Per John 5:19, sixteen forty three, and fourteen twenty seven
We can overcome, with the peace of God who resides in heaven
 
Pastor then mentioned transformations numbering four
Although I am sure he could have come up with more
To be transformed for a purpose must be the case
For we are not here on earth just to take up space
Transformed love, per John thirteen verse thirty five
As disciples of Jesus, our love for others should thrive
Per Luke five, we should also have transformed obedience
We should follow quickly, but not just out of expedience
Lastly, Pastor said we need to have transformed thinking
So that from our Christian purpose there will be no shrinking
