Why Worship on Sabbath Day?

The Sabbath reminds us of basic human and social equality before God; that we are all part of one family, God’s family. Regardless of our social status, whether we are property owners or renters, whether we are rich or poor, presidents of corporations or janitors, we are all God’s children. On the Sabbath there is no rank, no class status, no social privileges. God hears the prayers and accepts the worship of all His children.

Happy Sabbath! Enjoy the special blessings!


Read the Ten Commandments written on Exodus Chapter 20.. God bless us all!

The U.S. government estimates that less than 1/100 of 1 percent of U.S. paper currency in circulation is counterfeit. Considering recent advances in printing technology and the obviously vast incentive to counterfeit bills, that's a pretty small number. In part, that's because the U.S. Secret Service thoroughly investigates all reported counterfeiting cases, and because there are harsh criminal penalties for counterfeiting or passing fake bills. Perhaps more than anything, though, counterfeiting is difficult because of the bills' security features, which are hard to reproduce but easy to use to verify your money's authenticity.

Worship God or Not?

Season of Lenten is so special for us humans. For a week, we reminisce and recall in many ways the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ hath done for us, not because it’s His duty, but because He loves us so much.

It’s nice to know that we have a good God, a Father who always stays on our side, though most of the time we broke His heart by committing sins, and transgressing His commandments. Knowing that our nature as a human is sinner, He still let us live in this earth, and most touchingly, He sent His only Son to die on the cross of Calvary, to redeem us from all unrighteousness. So the question is, was it a valid reason now for us to worship God? Our answers may vary, but let me share to you some great things about worshiping God.
