The Gospel has ramifications beyond what evangelicals and reformed believers purport....certainly beyond our concerns of self and community. From behaviour modification to heart transformation- hmm...... must remember the phrase. Hi Jenni,

From behaviour modification to heart transformation- hmm…… must remember the phrase.

One act / word of GOD the Transcendent cannot be easily captured, defined and contained no..? but yes Kenny i grew up in church and one day just felt we are working the wrong angles: focusing on behavior modification and not heart transformation - something we cannot do in effect! So i needed to welcome myself to the ministry of powerlessness (in human terms)! bless the hearts of all pastors -- and may GOD's greace explode these same hearts ! to be fair, perhaps we should ask, “are singapore churches…”

Yet, there is certain things i don't agreed with him. He is a theologian. No doubt he is a professor, academician etc. Yet, he is not entirely right/true talking about Singapore's churches. Half true is like half boil egg. Agreed with Prof Horton. Yet, there is certain things i don’t agreed with him.

He is a theologian. No doubt he is a professor, academician etc. Yet, he is not entirely right/true talking about Singapore’s churches. Half true is like half boil egg.

Does he really come off as mercenary as you make him out to be? Perhaps we ought to give him the benefit of the doubt, being of your tribe and all that. I would like to think he has a burning message he urgently wants to get out to Christendom. But I have read only two of his books so I do not speak with knowledge and facts. Hi Joshua,
