MY GOSPEL @ Desmond R Singh

We do not attend church merely out of tradition or to receive an emotional fix. Instead, we gather to reprogram our minds with the thought patterns of Christ. Two verses form the cornerstone of our Pastor's life: "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly… But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night" (Psalm 1:1–2)....

After several saints testified, Brother Sam watered Wednesday's lesson, Concentrating particularly on "setting our affections on things above, not on things of earth" (Colossians 3:2). Mortify, or put to death, therefore, the components of our earthly nature: Sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires, and greed, which is idolatry.  Because of these behaviors, the wrath of God i...

Concerning the church in the last days, Jesus warned, "Because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold" (Matthew 24:12). This sobering statement highlights how iniquity numbs our love for truth and one another. "Iniquity" is often misunderstood. While some modern translations refer to it as "lawlessness," Brother Singh provides a more precise definition...

Brother Singh shared a deeply personal moment with our congregation: His grandson, angry at God, had asked, "Why does God allow so much suffering when He could fix it instantly?" It's a question that echoes in many hearts—a cry born of pain and confusion that even the most faithful believers occasionally feel.

A favorite chorus sung by our assembly includes the chorus: "And the God on the mountain is still God in the valley; when things go wrong, He'll make them right. And the God of the good times is still God in the bad times—the God of the day is still God in the night." Brother Singh and Sister Carol Smith combine to lift the spirits of saints in the valley of trials and afflictions. M...

A few years ago, Brother Singh wrote an article titled "I Beg to Differ ," challenging popular teachings in our fellowship that conflict with scripture. This lesson summary focuses on two commonly misunderstood and emotionally charged doctrines often promoted: 1) A restored church at the end of the age. 2) Latter rain blessings (Acts 2:15-19).

Building on Saturday's message, today's message reinforces Romans 12:1-2: "...present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is  your reasonable service, and be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind. Br. James shared the stark realities facing youth today in a world that defies God, whereas Br. Sam entreats God's...

Emphasizing that God measures success much differently than humans, Brother Singh equated what the world calls a loser to be a winner in God's eyes. By worldly standards, Paul's ministry is a failure. In 2 Timothy 4:16 , he lamented, "At my first answer no man stood with me, but all  men  forsook me." Fellow workers like Demas left him for worldly pursuits ( 2 Timothy 4:10 ). All...

"Patient continuance in well-doing" is a divine principle. It requires faithful service today, tomorrow, and for a lifetime. Jesus said, "I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father" (John 5:30). If we follow Brother Singh's Christ-centered example, we will be saved.

How we express our faith is not just a matter of words but a journey of the heart. After a profound session with the Vasai saints, Brother Singh was deeply moved by their heartfelt testimonies. He teaches that in God's sanctuary, the true essence of worship lies not in the words we speak but in the profound truths that emanate from our hearts.

After two weeks of fellowship with Brother and Sister Singh, Brother Arun, his family, and Sister Neena Matthew from India testify to what they learned and felt during their visit. Kinship in the family of God is unrestrained by race, skin color, or language. For by grace, we have been saved through faith. And this is not our own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one...

Addressing young people striving for education and professional careers, Brother Singh stressed the importance of hard work and self-sacrifice. He explained that self-sacrifice is not a loss, but an investment in your future. It's about giving up immediate pleasures or comforts for a greater purpose. His inspiring example is rare but vital to understand. Called to the ministry at twelve, he fi...

Many fantasize about their relationship with God and imagine reigning with Christ, assuming they're among the overcomers without truly counting the cost. Our hubris leads us to fantasize about our relationship with Jesus in His coming Kingdom. Our fellowship is particularly prone to imagining ourselves as overcomers. This lesson injects some reality into our understanding of scripture.

Sister Nadine led our congregation in a tender dedication song, "Willing to Be Changed," echoing Psalm 139:23-24: "Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." This heartfelt plea expresses a desire for divine examination and guidance. It reminds us that no elect child of God is...

God has a plan for each of His elect children. We are like clay on the Potter's wheel, being formed into vessels of His honor. Are we willing to be part of His honorable plan, or do we resist His will because we want to shape our lives according to our image?

God never promised the angels immortality! They have eternal life for as long as God desires, but He can put them out of existence. By contrast, we in the church have the possibility of attaining immortality. "For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate  to be  conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among MANY brethren." (Romans 8:29).  

Brother Singh's belief that 95% of Christianity today is deceived is shocking. This alarming statistic should stir every child of God to action, as it suggests that many well-intentioned believers are placing their faith in a counterfeit gospel. (See Galatians 1:6-8). Some readers will ask, 'How can a man of God make such a statement?' The answer lies in the Bible's warning, "...

Expanding upon Wednesday's lesson, "SUDUE & HAVE DOMINION," Brother Sam cautioned against developing a lying spirit.  Ananias and Sapphira are a couple in the Jerusalem church who lied against the Holy Spirit and were struck dead as they stood before Peter. We lie against God if we say Jesus is Lord when he is not Lord of our lives. Lying against the ministry is lying against Jes...

In a world clouded by religious tradition and theological complexity, God still calls people to listen to His voice through His ministry, think deeply, and walk in truth. Scripture states that "love believes all things" (1 Corinthians 13:7), but not naively so, but rather "Love believes in God concerning all things! Moreover, "Love is patient, Love is kind" (1 Corinthians...

Our beloved Brother Moses divides his time between Canada and Uganda, where he and his wife operate an orphanage for girls. In this poignant exhortation, he contrasts the gospel preached by Brother Singh with what is preached in the so-called "Christian world." While one emphasizes what God desires, the other focuses on the desires of the lusts of the human heart.

The Apostle Paul's profound truth, 'God will render to every man according to his deeds: to those who by patient continuance in good deeds seek glory, honor, and immortality, eternal life' (Romans 2:6-7), is a cornerstone of our faith. This patient continuance, a life committed to God year after year, in good times and bad, in poverty or plenty, is a crucial inspiration for our Christi...

Watering Brother Singh's message "AN AGE OF SELF-LOVERS," Brother Sam reiterated the importance of being part of the church. He stressed that we are not just church attendees, but integral parts of the church. Quoting 2 Timothy 3:2, he pointed out that those who are lovers of their own selves are not willing to make sacrifices for the Body of Christ. This lack of dedication and commi...

The Apostle Paul, in his last epistle written before his execution in Rome, urgently warned, "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers ..." (2 Timothy 3:1-2). Paul was writing about the state of Christ's church around 62 A.D. Little could he have known that his statement would...

We are grateful that internet technology allowed our sister assembly in Vasai, India, to commemorate the Lord's Supper simultaneously with our assembly in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. While this summary conveys Brother Singh's lesson, it cannot capture the spirit of love, unity, and peace that God poured out on our assemblies. Over this past week of Easter preparation, two themes have eme...

The Apostle Paul cautioned to the Corinthian saints, "All (the Hebrew children) were baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; All ate the same spiritual meat; and all drank the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. But with many of them, God was not well pleased, for He overthrew them in the wilderness." (1 Cor....
