In a world clouded by religious tradition and theological complexity, God still calls people to listen to His voice through His ministry, think deeply, and walk in truth. Scripture states that "love believes all things" (1 Corinthians 13:7), but not naively so, but rather "Love believes in God concerning all things! Moreover, "Love is patient, Love is kind" (1 Corinthians 13:4), yet it does not rejoice in a congregation that does funny stuff!" Love "rejoices NOT in iniquity but rejoices in the truth" (1 Corinthians 13:6).

Our beloved Brother Moses divides his time between Canada and Uganda, where he and his wife operate an orphanage for girls. In this poignant exhortation, he contrasts the gospel preached by Brother Singh with what is preached in the so-called "Christian world." While one emphasizes what God desires, the other focuses on the desires of the lusts of the human heart.

The Apostle Paul's profound truth, 'God will render to every man according to his deeds: to those who by patient continuance in good deeds seek glory, honor, and immortality, eternal life' (Romans 2:6-7), is a cornerstone of our faith. This patient continuance, a life committed to God year after year, in good times and bad, in poverty or plenty, is a crucial inspiration for our Christian walk.

Watering Brother Singh's message "AN AGE OF SELF-LOVERS," Brother Sam reiterated the importance of being part of the church. He stressed that we are not just church attendees, but integral parts of the church. Quoting 2 Timothy 3:2, he pointed out that those who are lovers of their own selves are not willing to make sacrifices for the Body of Christ. This lack of dedication and commitment to the work of God is a sign of unwillingness to for discipleship, as Jesus defined in Luke 9:23.

The Apostle Paul, in his last epistle written before his execution in Rome, urgently warned, "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers ..." (2 Timothy 3:1-2). Paul was writing about the state of Christ's church around 62 A.D. Little could he have known that his statement would be magnified many times over by the year 2025, as we see in the lack of commitment and genuine faith in our congregation today. Talk about our faith is meaningless without evidence that we live by faith.

We are grateful that internet technology allowed our sister assembly in Vasai, India, to commemorate the Lord's Supper simultaneously with our assembly in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. While this summary conveys Brother Singh's lesson, it cannot capture the spirit of love, unity, and peace that God poured out on our assemblies. Over this past week of Easter preparation, two themes have emerged: The cup of the Lord and self-examination.

The Apostle Paul cautioned to the Corinthian saints, "All (the Hebrew children) were baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; All ate the same spiritual meat; and all drank the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. But with many of them, God was not well pleased, for He overthrew them in the wilderness." (1 Cor. 10: 5-6). As we prepare to commemorate our Lord's life and death in communion, we must individually ask, "Is God well pleased with me?"

As the world indulges in the commercial aspects of Easter, blending pagan customs with the most solemn Christian memorial, we, as Christ's church, are reminded of the urgent need for spiritual change.

Just as the Apostle Paul confronted challenges in the New Testament Church, Brother Singh helps us to face similar issues today.

Tasked with preparing the minds and hearts of our congregation for communion, celebrated yearly as a memorial on our Passover weekend, Brother Sam exhorts us to revive the reverence for God's house we once held years ago. It is noteworthy that we do not refer to the death and resurrection of Jesus as Easter. That is a pagan term coined to honor the Anglo-Saxon goddess Eostre. Paganism and tradition are two serious threats invading Christ's Church today. Let us seek holiness, without which no person will see God.

As we prepare to commemorate the death and resurrection of our Lord, Brother Singh urges his followers to focus on the sacrifice Jesus made to cover our sins and iniquity. Isaiah wrote prophetically about 650 years before the crucifixion: He was wounded for our transgressions,  bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes, we are healed. All we, like sheep, have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way, and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all." (Isaiah 53: 5-6)
