Today’s theme is walking in humility. It is the humble who belong to the kingdom of heaven. Daniel 4:37 says, “Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and exalt and glorify the King of heaven, because everything he does is right and all his ways are just. And those who walk in pride he is able to humble.” This is today’s theme: walking in humility. Let’s read chapter 4. Verses 2 and

However, don’t you think it would be a great compliment if someone said, “You really remind me of Jesus”? Because, that is one goal of the Christian—to be like Christ Jesus. And since we believe Jesus is the Son of God, it implies that our goal is to resemble God, to reflect his image. This is my topic for

“Being Born Again” (John 3:1-8 )

[Acts 9:26-31] 26 When he came to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he really was a disciple. 27 But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles.

“Even if He does not deliver us” (Daniel 3:18)

↓Audio link to the sermon:(Sunday worship recording) (If you can’t listen on your iPhone, please update your iOS) During my last sermon we started reading the book of Daniel, which contains prophecies about our Savior, Jesus Christ. One of the prophecies was about a rock cut out of a mountain (2:45), which symbolized that the rule of the Romans and all other powers would be destroyed, and there would be a new kingdom. That rock which is stronger than anything is the Messiah. The Messiah to be born was Jesus, and the followers of this Messiah would spread throughout the world, going beyond national borders and eras of history. The

As you work during the week, I’m doing some work during the week. Guess what? I’m teaching Korean to a group of Japanese people. I teach them for an hour and a half per week. Personally, I think my students need to practice not once a week, but six times a week to improve their Korean skills. I mean almost everyday. If they do
