Gospel Light Christian Church

By Pastor Jason Lim False teachers are Satan's agents to lead people away from Jesus. They seem to preach Jesus, the gospel and the Spirit, but in reality, they are seducing people with a counterfeit Jesus, gospel and spirit. So what are the most dangerous false teachings in our world today? Who are these false teachers? Should we point these men and women out? And what should we do with false tea...

By Pastor Jason Lim "How much should I give?""And how do I know if the money is properly channelled to the intended recipients?"These are 2 questions regarding financial giving that Paul addresses.1. AffordabilityThough Paul used the churches of Macedonia as an example of grace giving, he is careful to also emphasise that it is not the benchmark for all churches. One should give according to what...

By Pastor Paul Choo Christians have little concept of our Final Destination, the New Heaven and New Earth (NHNE). Few sermons are preached on the NHNE. Most Christians have only heard a sermon about “the spirit of our dearly departed brother is now with the Lord” at a funeral service. The concept of a resurrected body living eternally in a NHNE (which is a super version of the Garden of Eden) is h...

By Pastor Jason Lim Supernatural giving. That's what Paul is talking about in 2Corinthians 8. It is a giving that arises from extremity , that overflows into generosity , and is characterised by humility . This kind of giving is not possible by human endeavour alone. It must be the result of God's grace or gracious enabling. Are you wondering how you can grow in gospel generosity? Are you tired an...

By Pastor Jason Lim Few things are as precious as the reconciliation of feuding Christians. Yet many choose to walk away from conflicts or difficult relationships, and leave a trail of messy and broken relationships. The Apostle Paul never gave up on the Corinthians. He reached out lovingly and patiently to them. And his efforts were rewarded when they sincerely repented of their sins. This passag...

By Pastor Jason Lim "Unequal yoke" is a common lingo amongst church-goers. But what does it really mean? And in what areas does it apply to? Marriage? Business? School? This sermon will help you understand the real meaning of "unequal yoke" the Apostle Paul intended it to be. It will also provide guidance for some of the decisions in your life. Take some time to find out more about "unequal yoke"...

By Pastor Jason Lim "No one cares what you know, until they know that you care." Before we confront or rebuke sin in others, it is important we assure them of our love for them. That's what Paul did. He shared his heart to the Corinthians in 3 areas: His Concern He was not convincing them to make himself look good. He was concerned for their spiritual well-being. He appealed to them that they will...

By Pastor Jason Lim A Christian is a miracle of God, for he is a whole new creation! It is all God's work. But what is a new creation? Paul teaches us 3 things about the new creation: A New Perspective A Christian is giving a fresh pair of spiritual eyes. He sees things differently. His perspective and worldview is radically changed. God has "turned on" the lights (shone in his heart) to enable th...

By Pastor Jason Lim We all need motivation to get things done. Figuring the "why" is as important as settling on the "what" we are to do. The Bible speaks quite a lot about the motivations of the Christian life. Paul gives us 2 motivations in this passage: The Fear of the Lord In light of the Bema judgment by Jesus, Paul would not be complacent, but made it his life aim to please Him in faithfully...

By Pastor Jason Lim The preacher Charles Spurgeon said in 1865: “We encourage our members to leave us to found other Churches; nay, we seek to persuade them to do it. We ask them to scatter throughout the land to become the goodly seed, which God shall bless.” He believes that church-planting is the venture of faith that God will bless. Indeed, when we look at the movement of the gospel in the boo...

By Brother Daniel Yip The Word of God is given to us not just for our information but for our transformation. When we know Jesus personally and are growing in the faith, the next step is to 'Go' for Him through serving Him and His people. God has gives us the means to "GO" by graciously giving us spiritual gifts. These are supernatural abilities believers receive to serve the body of Christ. Belie...

By Pastor Sin Yu Fei Sanctification is absolutely essential to the life of faith—so much so that Scripture frequently treats holiness as the identifying mark of a true and growing believer. It is God’s will for all believers to grow in our sanctification process, to be set apart from sin and to become holy as God Himself is holy—to be like His Son Jesus Christ. It takes time to grow and we each gr...

By Pastor Jason Lim Food offered to idols. It was a problem in the Corinthian church because some of them are having fellowship meals over food offered to idols in temples! This can stumble other Christians, especially former idol worshipers when they are encouraged to also now eat food offered to idols. But the culprits allege that eating food offered to idols is no big deal because "they all kno...

By Pastor Jason Lim Having spoken to the singles and the marrieds, Paul now speaks to the betrothed. After coming to know Christ, should they go ahead in marriage or should they remain single? Well, some in the Corinthian church had taught that they should remain single. But Paul's reply is a lot more nuanced and balanced. He didn't speak of his preference as a command, to become a "noose" to trap...

By Pastor Jason Lim "The grass is greener on the other side" is the belief many people hold, even when it comes to serving God. This sermon is meant to help you if you had thought "maybe I can only be an effective Christian if I'm..." Paul, in this passage, shows that we can serve God right where we are, regardless of whether we are married or single. Learn principles about 1. Placement. God has "...

By Pastor Jason Lim Singleness is stigmatized in many parts of the world today. Single people are made to feel as if there is something wrong with them. So it is interesting that during the days of Paul, some Corinthians in the church believe singleness should be the ideal for Christians. So, which is better? Singleness or marriage? Paul sets out to answer this question, and much more, in the pass...

By Hanniel Sinon 1. Why do we need to know Jesus? Paul tells us that, without Jesus, all humanity is dead in sin, dominated, and stands condemned. 2. How can we know Jesus? But God, because of the great love, has given us life on the basis of his Son. This reality is a gift from God purely devoid of any human contribution. It is by grace through faith in the finished work of Jesus. 3. What happens...

By Pastor Jason Lim This title must have scared you! It sounds horrible, doesn't it? And it is exactly that. The Abomination of Desolation is a detestable act by a detestable man (probably somewhere in the future) who will also bring about a lot of destruction. His rise to prominence will ignite a season of great tribulation, unparalleled in history. Many will die. So, if COVID-19 is scary, imagin...

By Pastor Jason Lim Jesus is the greatest gift of all. "But why? I'm not even looking for Him. I don't need Him!" you may say. There are 3 reasons why He is the greatest gift: Greatest Satisfaction Perhaps you are thinking that if only you have the car, or the condo, or the baby, or the wife... you'll be happy. But the question is "will you be absolutely satisfied forever with that car or condo?"...

By Pastor Jason Lim Isaiah 7:14 is a popular verse during Christmas. And it should be! It promises the birth of Jesus, our Immanuel! And it is also important to know the context of why and how the promise was given. The promise was given in the midst of sin, rebellion & impending war. In spite of Judah's unfaithfulness, God remains faithful. He will not forsake His own, even if they should str...

By Pastor Nazario Sinon According to recent survey, less than 50% of millennials and Gen Z in the US are attending Church weekly. Is this one of the signs that belief, even reverence, unto God has waned? This trend might impact us here in Singapore sooner or later. How does this concern us? to you as a Christian parent? as a Christian teen or youth? How could we ensure that we would achieve the mi...

By Pastor Chee Keen Times of sufferings, whether great or small, can wreak havoc on our lives. They can bring us much sorrow and fear. They can make us angry and bitter with life. They can cause us to withdraw or even give up on our faith. But I have found that sufferings don’t have to wreck my life. There will still be unexpected changes. They will still be painful to endure. But sufferings that...

By Pastor Paul Choo As Gospel Light celebrates its 35th anniversary we want to take time to look back, look up and look forward. GLCC has been characterized as a church strong in BIBLE Teaching, GOSPEL Preaching and SERVICE to others. We are a FAMILY church that has always been deeply reliant on God’s provision. However these same strengths can become dangers: 1. We may become proud of our superio...

By Pastor Paul Choo Gospel Light’s vision is to be an ‘Acts Church For Today’, a church that proclaims the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and keeps multiplying. We also want to fulfil our mission of leading others into a life-changing relationship with Jesus through discipling new believers. THE GREAT COMMISSION given by Jesus in Mat. 28:18-20 should really be called the GREAT COMMANDMENT....
