Education Crisis
I was nearly collapse on 17 Feb 09.
歌 林 多 前 書 10
13 你 们 所 遇 见 的 试 探 ， 无 非 是 人 所 能 受 的 。 神 是 信 实 的 ， 必 不 叫 你 们 受 试 探 过 於 所 能 受 的 ； 在 受 试 探 的 时 候 ， 总 要 给 你 们 开 一 条 出 路 ， 叫 你 们 能 忍 受 得 住 。
1 Corinthians 10
13No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

基督徒的5大确据 - 得救的确据 (The Assurrane of Salvation)
前言
当一个人刚相信耶稣后，时常会受到撒旦的攻击而对自己的信仰产生怀疑。以下是一些撒旦常使我们产生怀疑的问题：
- 你不一定得救。
- 神是圣洁的，你这个人犯了滔天大罪，必不能得救？
- 相信耶稣就能得救，真得那么简单吗？
这些问题只是撒旦的诡计，因此我们要以神的话来战胜撒旦。（约翰一书５：１１－１３）
定义：
所谓确据就是指信徒凭信心完全相信基督在十字架上为我们所成就的工作，我们已经拥有永生，并且永远在神保守之下。
经文：
約翰一書 5
11这见证就是神赐给我们永生；这永生也是在他儿子里面。
12人有了神的儿子就有生命，没有神的儿子就没有生命。
13我将这些话写给你们信奉神儿子之名的人，要叫你们知道自己有永生。
关于得救的确据
- 谁赐给我们永生？神
- 谁可以得到永生？信徒/相信耶稣的人
- 如何才可以获得永生？相信耶稣
- 三重保障
1）圣父（约翰福音10：29）
2）圣子（约翰福音10：28）
3）圣灵印证 （以弗所書1：13）
确据的根基
1）永不变的真理
希伯來書6
17 ..神愿意为那承受应许的人格外显明他的旨意是不更改的..
18 ..神决不能说谎，好叫我们这逃往避难所、持定摆在我们前头指望的人可以大得勉励。
2）无条件的应许 （约翰福音3：16）
3）完全的救赎 （希伯来书9：12-14）
4）基督的公义 （哥林多前书1：30）
5）三重保障
6）神赐新生命与儿子的名分 （约翰福音1：12）
确据与犯罪
既然相信耶稣必然得救，那岂不是鼓励信徒去犯罪吗？绝对不是！
- 耶稣教导人要远离罪恶，而真正的相信必然显露在行为上。
- 神必管教他的儿女（希伯来书12：5-8）
难道医药的发达就是鼓励你随意割伤自己吗？绝不，而是更应提高健康的意识！

Faith in God
An interesting conversation between a Professor and his Student (true account). I got this from a Bro Shivaram.... I believe, must be Shivaram Meta from USA, a former youth from Singapore. Please read the conversation below and the student..... you will be amazed.....
An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty. He asks one of his new students to stand and.....
Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Prof: Is God good?
Student: Sure.
Prof: Is God all-powerful?
Student: Yes.
Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then? Hmm?(Student is silent.)
Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Is Satan good?
Student: No.
Prof: Where does Satan come from?
Student: From...God.. .
Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.
Prof: So who created evil?
(Student does not answer.)
Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness?All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?
Student: Yes, sir.
Prof: So, who created them?(Student has no answer.)
Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory
perception of God for that matter?
Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.
Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student: Yes.
Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.
Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.
Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?
Prof: Yes.
Student: And is there such a thing as cold?
Prof: Yes.
Student: No sir. There isn't. (The lecture theater becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)
Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that.There is no such thing as cold .. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy . Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it .(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theater.)
Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?
Student: You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and it's called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?
Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.
Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing.. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor.Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)
Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher? (The class is in uproar.)
Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain?(The class breaks out into laughter.)
Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain,sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable. )
Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.
Student: That is it sir... The link between man & god is FAITH . That is all that keeps things moving & alive. NB: I believe you have enjoyed the conversation. ..and if so...you'll probably want your friends/colleagues to enjoy the same...won't you?....this is a true story, and the student was none other than........ .

进化论与创造论 Evolution VS Creation
创造论与进化论
进化论不能成立因为：
1）进化论只是假设，只是人的设想
2）进化论建立在“物竞天择，适者生存”／“不适者淘汰”／“优胜劣败”的基础上。所谓的基础，其实完全不可靠
3）达尔文的《物种起源》(On the Origin of Species)之三大难题：
A）化石的难题
B）进化论需要漫长的时间
C）创造的证据无处不在
其上3点的解释如下：
1）进化论已毫无根据的假设为前提，企图把无比奇妙及复杂的生命简化
2）西班牙的斗牛角是向外生长的，中国的水牛角则是向后弯向颈部的。分析以上所谓的基础，前者可以理解因为是出于生存和自卫，但是后者则无从解释
3）
A）从地质学及古生物学，寒武纪早期（约5.7亿年前）大量动物同时出现，展现了地球上生命的形势的爆炸性突变，无进化痕迹可寻 –达尔文坦白说他不能提供满意的答案
B）以物理学的角度，著名物理学家开尔文(W.Thomas,LordKelvin)计算机地球年龄只有一千五到三千万年，不足以让需要漫长时间的进化成立 –达尔文自己也接受其理论与化石证据不符合
C）达尔文承认其中一个创造物，眼睛不可能自然选择形成
结论：自从造天地以来，神的永能和神性是明明可知的，虽是眼不能见，但藉着所造之物就可以晓得，叫人无可推诿
