Of course, we don't force people to go if they really don't want to. City Harvest Church is a charismatic church. The way MANY of them do is about the same but don't take it as a force or a pressuring things to go. WE DO NOT FORCE PEOPLE TO GO. I agree, some may be a bit pestering.
REMEMBER we do not want your sympathy kind of money. If you want to give this kind of money, then they will not accept even if you give $10 or $1000. We want people who will give willingly. The money they gave is not for them but for GOD. We use a these funds to build church,school,hospital in other countries such as Banda Ache & Malaysia.
You may be know the goodness in it. When you know it, ou may think it ortherwise. I am not trying to change your mindset but to explain why and how the things we do.
We are imperfect people including people. So don't think that CHC people should be a perfect people and set an example for others. We are all human, we do sin also.
Whoever seen a CHC member take a gun or knife to force people to go. Never right. You want or don't want to go is up to you. It's your decision. One of CHC goal, to take the nation by storm and to be a whole new generation for them.
You may not agree but you cannot stop they way they do. They do is not because they want to be yaya-papaya or what, they just want to do good thing for GOD. How many peoples here think that CHC will not be able to build a builing in 1998(Economic Slump). Maybe you thought of that right, but we proved it wrong, not by the work of man but by the words of GOd.

And by the way, Libra Girl, every heard what Jesus said, "Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone."
do you advocate Christan teachings or stick to solid biblical facts? if you don't you guys shouldnt call yourselves Christians..call yourselves fun seekers instead.Originally posted by libra_gal:my apology of it!if u cant understand but i had already stated clearly over here.Do i need to simplify for u??if u urself hav knowledge in christianlity u should understand it.
I dun c tat she is a fun seekers.. Its e fact some people goes to church with some purposes.. Its true tat some people out there treats CHC as a match-making centre.. But through her msg, I could c tat she's trying to tell them tat CHC is built for e purpose of worhipping God & not other purposes which they could think of.. Shdn't we tell them wat is e purpose of building a church instead of we having some misunderstandings with each other?Originally posted by vito_corleone:do you advocate Christan teachings or stick to solid biblical facts? if you don't you guys shouldnt call yourselves Christians..call yourselves fun seekers instead.![]()
hmm, i am just wondering, if you are trying to assume all mega church are bad and have false teaching cause I personally feel Saddleback is one of the most solid church around, and really have one of the best pastorsOriginally posted by macjoe:Bible says to beware of false prophets, preachers in the name of Christ
who uses spirituality and the Word to gather followers and
achieve fame and fortune.
How do you tell the real from the fake? By their talk and walk and fruits -
how do they match with and differ from that of the world?
What powers is at work at the church?
idols, idol followers, manifestation/power of "spirits", song-n-dance fever, girl power, youth power?
Does God even want a grand 5-star church building, worship atmosphere
for its followers?
Is the pastor's wife operating a fashion outlet (saw on ch8 where sun showed fiona and kim some trendy clothes)? Any other businesses/investments they (or church) are involved in?
Becoming a christian or attending a church is like buying a
diamond. There are many diamond salesmen and saleslady.
To avoid getting badly burnt, scrutinize, scrutinize, scrutinize
for the real from the fake.
As a christian,we base on bible.As a human being,we all sin.Fun seeker are only for those who do not believe in bible,not believe got sin or in any religious jus for playing therefore most of the time they opp the normal way....!r u the one?Originally posted by vito_corleone:do you advocate Christan teachings or stick to solid biblical facts? if you don't you guys shouldnt call yourselves Christians..call yourselves fun seekers instead.![]()
