Proverbs 30 - Walkthrough

 Hello! Let's jump into Proverbs 30.

Proverbs 20 was written by Agur son of Jakeh, a wise man. This was his words:

Verse 1b: We are sinful people, but we can succeed.

Verse 2: We are people of evil and of sin.

Verse 3: We are foolish people without as much wisdom as the Lord.

Verse 4: Jesus is all powerful, the wisest, and has gone to and from heaven.

Verse 5: The Bible is flawless, and it is a shield to those who take refuge in the Lord - The Wise.

Verse 6: Do not modify or change the Bible, for that is lying and you will certainly be rebuked.

Verse 7,8,9: We need two things from the Lord, says Agur: The justification for us and the border between us and sin. For if not, we will dishonor the name of the Lord Almighty.

Verse 10: Do not lie, do not gossip, for you will be faced with consequences.

Verse 11,12,13,14,: There are foolish people: those who hate their parents, think that they are wise, the gossipers, the offenders, and the oppressors of the poor. Avoid them.

Verse 15,16: Fools are never satisfied, their greed is many.

Verse 17: Do not hate your parents, do not offend them, for you will be punished.

Verse 18,19,20: Do not fall into the way of the adulterer, do not fall into their seductive methods, it brings chaos, yet to the adulterer, confession is not present.

Verse 21,22,23,: Do not put fools in power and wealth, do not fall into adultery, for these are foolish.

Verse 24,25,25,27,28: Be like an ant and be hardworking, work hard for your needs, and be wise.

Verse 29,30,31: Be tough and do not fear for the Lord is with you.

Verse 32,33: Do not be a fool: Though fools' folly is terrible, it also makes them think they sre wise. They also plan evil and their intentions are malicious, they cause strife and conflict.

That's all! The verse:  

5 “Every word of God is flawless;
    he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

BCN 2025 - Kasihilah Tuhan dan Pimpinan Roh Kudus

 Hello! It's been four months since the last blog. When I started a year ago, one of the first blogs was about BCN 2024. It is the next year already, and now we have BCN 2025. This will be a full summary - last time we did it in 3 parts.  Introduction - What is BCN? BCN, or Bible Camp Nasional (Bible Camp National) is a 3-day 2-night event held by Gereja Reformed Injili Indonesia. While most people who attend are from GRII, everyone can join, though it is limited to grades four to seven. Since it is held in June and after the time students typically graduate from a grade, a "seventh grader" means a sixth grader who had recently graduated, and is now considered a seventh grader, for example. BCN is a summer camp, with its main focus on teaching the Bible to children. Before grade four, most people go to Bible Trip , and after grade seven to  NRETC. BCN has seventeen sessions (sermons), this year over a dozen speakers. The event costs 800,000 rupiahs to enter for  earl...

People like to say "Jesus is coming soon", and it's incorrect: Argument Series #1

 Currently, a lot of people has reacted to the tension between the United States and Iran by saying "The end times are soon". Not only do they say this because of the "war", but also because of technologies such as artificial intelligence and Neuralink. In this post I want to challenge this claim. Of course, we shouldn't even try to say "this is near the end times", this is misleading, none of us know when, and we cannot even say that it is vaguely soon. Nevertheless, I will still bring up other points. I will go one by one for each claim. #1: The Iran-US-Israel controversy conflict is a sign of the End Times Many claim that chapters like Ezekiel 38, which speaks about Israel and surrounding powers at war, point to today's conflict. There are several approaches when it comes to interpreting Biblical verses. One of them is covenant theology, which is the reformed approach in this area. God has an Old Covenant, which is with the nation of Israel, and...

Chapel SKC Grade 7 #1

Wednesday 23 July Chapel, SKC, Grade VII #1 By Roy Pangemanan Introduksi Katekismus Heidelberg/Introduction of Heidelberg Catechism A catechism is like a theological explanation usually in the format of Question and Answer and is oral teaching. There are many catechisms, one of them is the Heidelberg Catechism. Personally, I already heard about the name Heidelberg Cathechism once but never knew anythung about it until this Wednesday. Heidelberg is a city in Germany, but at the time it was in the Holy Roman Empire. (The speaker did not say that at the time it was under the Holy Roman Empire, but I added that, he only said that the government was different). The church had just undergone the Reformation and many wanted to know about the Bible, but still needed some direction or explanation. Thus, Frederick III, that governed the area, who was Reformed (Reformed = Sola Scriptura), who was an "elector", commissioned Zacharias Ursinus and Caspar Olevianus to make a catechism. The ...
