My Prayer
"You don't always get what you want" Remembering what Shella once told me. Yes, very common line, very popular. But such is one of the many quarks which runs through my mind in my struggling to be obedient to God, … Continue reading

Dr. Stephen Tong Q&A: Fasting and Prayer
15、请问唐牧师，你对“禁食祷告‘的看法是什么呢？ 答：禁食以后大吃，那不叫禁食，那个叫做“等以后吃”；禁食时不祷告，不叫“禁食祷告”；只祷告不禁食，也不叫“禁食祷告”。那禁食祷告是什么？ 第一、“禁食”是表示我不依靠食物，我要更专心依靠上帝。 第二、“禁食”不是要建立功劳，是要完全领受神的功劳。 所以禁食不是建立功劳，是要废除人的功劳。这是基督教禁食和其它宗教不同的地方。所有其它的宗教都以为禁食以后人就更有功劳，基督教是在禁食中间否定人 的功劳，更多依靠上帝。所以禁食祷告就是——把我对吃饭的依靠，吃饭得到的供应，吃饭所用的时间都带到神面前来，更多依靠他，更多仰望他， 这个叫做禁食祷告。 第三、圣经没有明文规定禁食祷告需要多长的时间，也没有说明到底共有哪些事情需要禁食。 所以有好几次我感到争战特别大的时候我就禁食。但是我妈妈和我不同，我妈妈自己规定每一个礼拜天早晨她不吃饭，她每个礼拜天清早起来就为全世界所有要站 讲台的牧师、传道祷告。我又发现她这么做了二十多年还不够，后来连礼拜——她也不吃？说：“妈妈，你为什么不吃？”“因为每个礼拜一我为我五个孩子奉献作 传道祷告。”这是我母亲的习惯，和我不一样的。 [@more@]

Science
Science is the categorization of knowledge through the research of wonders and principles hidden within the operation of God created nature, using the reasoning power and intellect within us given by God. -Dr. Stephen Tong. My English translation. 科学是人用上帝给人的理性与智能当作工具去研究上帝创造的大自然奇妙的安排及各样的定律所产生出来分门别类一科—科的学问，所以科学是一科一科的学问。 [@more@]

Luke 11:18
The Western culture has not much experience in spiritual matters in ancient times, hence such verses are expounded in more details by Chinese commentators.[@more@]

Nietzsche: Ubermensch
Eventhough some would attribute Hollywood's Superman, taken from comics, to Nietzsche's Overman. But it is hard to deny that all these superheros notions are at some level inspired by his conception. Nietzsche thought he could raise his nose above christianity … Continue reading
