The Evidence Bible

I found it at Ray Comfort's page
I fell in love with it right away hahahah

The Evidence Bible. All you need to understand and defend your faith.
New King James Version. Includes a Concordance, Topical Subheads, and the Words of Jesus in red. Hardcover.

How do you respond when a coworker labels you intolerant for believing Jesus is the only way to God? How would you answer those who claim the Bible is filled with contradictions, or there is no absolute truth?

Newly revised and expanded, The Evidence Bible arms you not just with apologetic information to refute the arguments of skeptics, but with practical training on how to effectively and lovingly share the truth.

• Discover answers to over 200 questions such as: Why is there suffering? How could a loving God send people to hell? What about those who never hear of Jesus?

• In addition to thousands of verse-related comments, over 130 informative articles will help you better comprehend and communicate the Christian faith.

• Over two dozen articles on evolution will thoroughly prepare you to refute the theory.

• Dozens of articles on other religions will help you understand and address the beliefs of Mormons, Hindus, Muslims, Jehovah's Witnesses, cults, etc.

• Hundreds of inspiring quotes from renowned Christian leaders and practical tips on defending your faith will greatly encourage and equip you.

The Evidence Bible provides powerful and compelling evidence that will enrich your trust in God and His Word, deepen your love for the truth, and enable you to radically impact those you care about.

Norman Geisler: "The Evidence Bible is filled with excellent apologetic tools and insights to help Christians reason with those who need to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. I highly recommend it."

Franklin Graham: "In a day when Christians are too often silenced by the questions of skeptics, The Evidence Bible will help you be prepared to give an answer. Compiled by seasoned evangelist Ray Comfort, its innovative format makes it especially easy to use. You'll find it to be an invaluable tool for becoming a more effective witness."

D. James Kennedy: "The Evidence Bible is specifically designed to reinforce the faith of our times by offering hard evidence and scientific proof for the thinking mind."

Tim LaHaye: "The Evidence Bible is a handy tool for anyone interested in proving the reliability of Scripture, the deity of Jesus Christ, and the incredible offer of our eternal salvation. It makes the defense of Scripture easily understood and should be read by all serious Bible students."

Allan Parker, President, The Justice Foundation: "The Evidence Bible is the most interesting, amazing and useful Bible I have ever read. It has become my favorite of all and is incredibly useful for devotionals, evangelism, apologetics, and even nagging doubts or questions we hear in the world and don't quite have the answer. I urge everyone to have a copy."

Kirk Cameron: "The Evidence Bible is a reservoir overflowing with powerful quotes from famous people, amazing anecdotes, sobering last words, informative charts, and a wealth of irrefutable evidence to equip, encourage, and enlighten you, like nothing else could. I couldn't recommend it more highly."

Ken Ham: "In our modern scientific age when God's Word is coming under increasing attack, Christians need to be equipped with answers to defend the reliability of the Bible from its very first verse. I thank God for resources like The Evidence Bible and am glad to have had a small part in it."

Josh McDowell: "The Evidence Bible will certainly assist you to always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks to give the reason for the hope that you have."

Preachers who talk about everything but the reality of Hell, are likeable betrayers of the gospel.

Facebook Posts of Comfort

"JC Rider: Jacob, history absolutely does not prove "jesus" was real and most atheist and many historians believe he never lived. You are not educated on the historicity of this fictional character. No one wrote a single solitary word about this character until somewhere between. 40-100 years AFTER his supposed death. It's just mythology, which is why it is dying out." 

JC. Would you agree that the year in which we are living is 2013? Since Whom? (If you are not sure, your first two initials should give you a clue).

(Almost) Everything Important in 2012

2012 had been a pleasant journey for me personally

I can't even describe the whole things happened
(But well, please let me describe it through this blog huahaha)

- Starting with my 2012 Resolution after consulting with Ko Reza: Hanging out with Jesus and Holy Spirit (sound cliche, doesn't it? But it's true :D)
I've been walking on this journey to find out more about Him
My reason is simple "If we are to call Him God, Lover of my soul or Father, you should understand with your life those titles of Him. Noone would call a stranger (or a non-lover) as your lover, right?"

- Godly jealousy
I shared with my friends about this experience, which I was reminded about being 'complete' as a single.
God loves me too much to let me be lovey-dovey with a particular person, no not yet, not this time.

Even things that distract me most of all the times, manga, anime or anything.
He really dislikes when I'm not thinking of Him
It's affirming Ko Reza's sharing and Ko Geboy's sermon about "Surat Cinta Tuhan yang Bikin Guling2"

Renewing my resolution and improving my mindset regarding this matter, I focused on seeking Jesus

- Promotion
Viewing the previous days, I couldn't believe how much opportunities I've been trusted with.
Masih saja bingung soal teknik2 'worship leading', 'how to improve in singing' and my other life-long studies, gua sudah dipercayakan dengan banyak hal.
Memimpin pujian di acara Paskah (Servant King), acara Natal (Luminous) misalnya
Bertemu teman2 sepelayanan yang luar biasa, dan juga faithful yet excellent teammates in FGCC #Luminous

Bahkan sebelum itu, in 2011, I was trusted as Vocal Ministry Coordinator
Dan sekarang, as Fresh Ministry Coordinator menggantikan teman seperjuangan saya yang sudah lulus dan bekerja, Bu Leniwatih Handoko
many many things to be grateful for!!

Wow, who am I really?
I never miss the point I always say: It's not about us, it's about Jesus

- Apologetic and Evangelism
From Answers in Genesis' Demolishing Stronghold, until Living Waters' Way of the Master, I really learnt a loottt of things

I found who I am to be, my planning about future, my passion and my calling
I slowly began to understand the prices, risks, and facts in doing all these services

I have not completed my "What's next after I graduate?" plan yet
At least I know what I'm going to do, to keep, to bear in the future. Be it as a full-timer or a part-timer in this ministry

The more I see this thrilling yet exciting calling for me, I understand that some things should be done properly:
1. Getting more intimate with God
2. Faithful in what I've been given (Mechatronics Engineering in Monash, FGCC Fresh Ministry, Fresh Com, etc)
3. Communicating my plans with my family (believe me, not an easy task :D)
4. Finding out and doing what I have to do according to His plan (I'm seeking even more)

People asked me about this girlfriend topic and I found hard to explain it to some of them hahah
My calling in God is not an easy one (never be, for all God's followers, in meaning that you should carry His cross), so the question I'll ask to my gf-to-be is "Are you willing to suffer with me in fulfilling God's will?"

 27Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or remain absent, I will hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel; 
28in no way alarmed by your opponents—which is a sign of destruction for them, but of salvation for you, and that too, from God. 
29For to you it has been granted for Christ’s sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake, 
30experiencing the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

It's hard to find one like that, I know.

But I'm not afraid of my tomorrow, God will prepare a special one for me.
I will not focus on this thing, let's focus on what He wants us to do

Once I dreamed of building a happy family in God, but now I surrender everything to Him. Even if I am called to remain single for my whole life because of doing His will, I have no problem as well

(conversation with brother Brian Adam)

- Last thing in sequence, I am deeply grateful for everyone I know, especially in FGCC:

Ko Eddy and family, Kak Dicky and family, Kak Tama, Ko Geboy, Ko Epi,
Fresh Ministry Team 2011/2012 and 2012/2013
#Luminous Team (again)
Tea O' Ice, my family that I need
Brothers and Sisters in Christ


Thank you

Evangelism: On the Box - Answers in Genesis

Hey hoo, I've been spending my days trying to do productive things
(well, I do, actually haha)

I'm soooo deeply interested with Ray Comfort's blog: (●´□`)♡

and currently follow up his facebook and twitter B-) (〜￣▽￣)〜
can't believe that I spent minutes to find the previous jap-emots 

FYI, Ray Comfort's Ministry: Living Waters is a ministry whose curriculum we've been using to equip us in evangelism
He is the Way of the Master (WotM) host, together with Kirk Cameron

You can see from this blog's comments that people refuse to accept his teaching or preaching.
Although I think his points, ideas and sources are presented CLEARLY and TRANSPARENTLY
and this situation was not unpredicted

Matthew 13:14
In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:

“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving




You can view this blog, you can choose to believe it or not




Regarding some people's comment that Ray Comfort does not present enough proofs about God's existence, well he does actually.

However, he himself does not do the evangelism in apologetical way.

People who attended WotM basic training must understand what I mean, because in a wrong way, apologetic is just another 'knowledge fulfilling' tool (which is not its true purpose)

Anyway, those who give comments regarding their 'needs' about apologetical (scientific explanation about God of the Bible and stuffs) sometimes just practically try to 'test' him, not because they really want to know the answer

If you are interested in that kind of explanation, you can visit this Answers in Genesis website

or maybe the President, Ken Ham's blog

there you go, I got this picture from his FB haha

Again, the choice is yours (ノ￣ー￣)ノ
Just please think and decide carefully

Yang terus kucari ialah kepenuhan oleh RohNya, sebab cukuplah Dia bagiku

This sentence came into my mind just now, it describes my reason and longing on walking this journey pretty well:
"Yang terus kucari ialah kepenuhan oleh RohNya, sebab cukuplah Dia bagiku"

Penuh: Pimpremi (4092)

1. to blow, to burn
2. to cause to swell, to render timid
3. to swell, become swollen
1. of the parts of the body

Spirit of God is like the fire, its flame easily burns everything, and with the respect to the power given by Holy Spirit

Power: Dunamis (1411)
strength power, ability

1. inherent power, power residing in a thing by virtue of its nature, or which a person or thing exerts and puts forth
2. power for performing miracles
3. moral power and excellence of soul
4. the power and influence which belong to riches and wealth
5. power and resources arising from numbers
6. power consisting in or resting upon armies, forces, hosts

Which is something active, powerful and explosive

The Must-Hear-Song : Jesus It Is You

I am sooo in love with this song ever since I listened to it for the very first time
Without prolonging my words, please do listen to it ;)

Jesus It Is You Chords and Lyrics – True Worshippers


WHO MAKES THE SUN TO RISE AND BRING THE EARTH NEW LIFE IN EVERY BEAM

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO TURNS THE DAY TO NIGHT AND WATCHES ME AS I BEGIN TO DREAM

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO BRINGS ME FOOD FOR MY TABLE, WHO CARES FOR ALL OF MY NEEDS

WHO WALKS THE ROAD WITH ME

HAS GROWN WITH ME THROUGH ALL THAT I HAVE BEEN

JESUS IT IS YOU, JESUS IT IS YOU




SO I LIFT MY HANDS AND I BRING MY SONG

ALL OF MY DAYS, ALL OF MY RIGHTS, ALL OF MY WRONGS

I OFFER MY LIFE, HERE AND BEYOND

TO THE ONE THING TRUE, JESUS IT IS YOU




WHO SEES MY BROKENNESS AND CARRIES ME WHEN I AM FRAIL AND WEAK

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO TELLS THE STORM TO REST WHEN I AM OVERWHELMED AND CANNOT SPEAK

JESUS IT IS YOU

WHO WEARS MY GUILT ON HIS SHOULDERS, WHO HOLDS MY HEART IN HIS HANDS

WHO TAKES MY THOUGHTS AND FEARS AND HANGS THEM ON THE ARMS OF CALVARY

JESUS IT IS YOU, JESUS IT IS YOU

Daily Devotion 9/12/12 Part 2

I almost forgot to continue this post
However, I'm reminded to fulfill our Fresh Com's (newly found) motto: We finish what we have started (by Pendy Anggoro) huahaha
So, here we go, Part 2

Ephesians 3:14-15
14For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 

'is named' is an expression derived from the custom in a family, where they bear the name of the Head of the family.
That's why, in God, we are one big family :)

16That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man

Do we still pay attention in taking care of our inner man ?
Do we train our inner man routinely and give the 'proper food' (God's Words)?
It will be granted by His Spirit, so seeking Him with all our might is the key to strengthen our inner man

17That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

Does Christ dwell in your heart?
Does His love flow through your life?

18May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;19And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

20Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, 
21Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Knowing Jesus and His love that exceeds knowledge is a process, a continuous yet life fulfilling process

The point is that our ultimate goal is to know the personality of Jesus Christ

If you need after something like, His anointing, blessing, guidance, grace, favour , you are not exactly wrong, but above all, do you need Him Himself?

Ko Rizaldi Putra described it to us through this story about a couple.

The wife asked for a new car, granted by her husband.
New house, granted
Jewelries, granted
Getting their children into proper education, granted
etc etc

And then he said:
If I were her husband, I would wonder and ask "Do you ever ask for me? Do you need me?"

Same goes to us, we sometimes feel that we know God. But, DO WE?

Ask this directly to Him, let it be our prayer.

Jesus is all we need, He is sufficient for us
