Today was a LONG day! And finally it's over!!!!!!!!!!! I was in YWC the whole day since 9am because the previous night i was told to go there to do some amazing last minute work that should have been done a month ago! Yeah, so you say, how in the world did i finish it so fast? Well, give thanks to God first. He was the one that provided me such a good brain and fast thinking.hehhee..it was a good experience though. I learnt that i could still work under stress and it also taught me to handle myself better when the next stressful situation crops up. I was disappointed today that my friend couldn't turn up because he got a terrible flu. Seemed to me that the devil has worked so hard such that my friend was striken by such an illness. It was only just the day before that he told me he could come and today this happened...i feel so sickened by this thought, that we are not fighting against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers..things that i have no control of unless God steps in. hai...to make matters worse, stephen msn me today telling me that he's not coming. I told him it's the most important seminar in the whole series and his church will NEVER teach him this. He said yeah..the church will teach him and i was even willing to bet with him for $1000 that nobody will tell him about it. He still didn't believe me. Well, of course he had sufficient reason not to believe me but at least he could have spent a few hours listening to the seminar and then not come again if he wants. Now, he's not going to hear of the topic again unless someone tells him but it's not going to be his church for sure. Why did i say his church is never going to tell him?? Because if the pastor says that saturday is to be church day, then he will lose alot of members firstly because alot of them work on saturday and secondly some of them believe that sunday worship is right because the majority are keeping sunday. The latter do so because they are guilty of not studying the bible for themselves with an open mind. Hai..
In the previous night i met a man sitting at the corner in the auditorium. Pei fong asked me to talked to him the first thing he saw me come up. Pei fong had told me about this man and had wanted me to explain things to him since i'm better equipped. I thought this guy was a sincere person wanting to know more about the Sabbath so i was enthusiastic. I let the guy talk for about 5 mins along with some simple questions and i knew what kind of guy was he. He was the kind that was so closed minded that not even a sharp knife had a chance. He had taken out a huge stack of notes from his bag and referred to them saying "All the statements you ppl say have been refuted here"..i looked at some of them and i noticed that he had printed those from some non-sda website. Again i was exasperated because this guy was claiming to be open minded and yet he didn't bother to go to official sda sites to check out what we have to say about his "refutations to our statements". I was sad that a person could have been so deceived by satan and be so closed-minded..yet again, satan seemed to have an upper hand. So i told myself it's not worth it to tell him what i think because all he will do is point me to his stack of toilet paper and say that it's all argued there. If he were that smart, he would tell me why himself instead of pointing to his stack of toilet paper. So i decided to try to prise myself out of the conversation(or one sided conversation) since i'll be wasting my time with him...i mananged to do so finally saying that i wanted to watch the video on screen.
