  5. day of the new year. I know it's like, yeah, go en

  6. one, but yeah, with Jesus there is no end. Okay. I

  7. prepared this because, uh, Pastor Samuel, I said, hey, what

  8. what are they studying? What is studying? You know? And then he

  9. said, oh, we're studying what the end times? Studying what the end

  10. times? You know. Whenever I hear that topic, I get a little

  11. bit frightened because it's a challenging topic to teach. Right. Honestly, I

  12. didn't go to Bible school, so all of the you know, all the

  13. preaching on the Bible studies is self self, you know, study in a

  14. sense holy spirit, you know, teaching me. I would say, but

  15. right, he's saying, we've gotta he's teaching about the end times, and

  16. so I look to Revelation. I try to get something to teach, you

  17. know. But I prayed, most importantly, I prayed. It's great to

  18. be able to pray. And the Holy Spirit will show us, and you

  19. will tell us. And so I got this word. You know. Actually

  20. you're going to talk about end times. But you know, with Jesus,

  21. there's no end. With Jesus, there's no end. It's only new beginning.

  22. Everyone say, new beginning. What looks looks like an end is actually

  23. a starting of something new. Amen, let me show you why. Right.

  24. Revelation, Chapter twenty one, Verse five. I read verse five to

  25. a. Okay, should we get children to read? Yeah? Okay,

  26. okay, parents, if you have your Bible, so somehow with you if

  27. you can open up you know the verse there? Uh yeah, actually you

  28. can use the screen as well. We we get some children now to read

  29. for us five six, eight four verses only, okay, any volunteers,

  30. children, volunteers. If not, we pig okay, volunteers, all right,

  31. who anyone? Anyone? Okay? Come? Okay, hella, well,

  32. don let's give it a lot. Clap Hey, we want four four

  33. adi Okay, do you come anyone else? That side? And A say,

  36. Okay, Meggie, come Meggie, right, well done, Okay,

  37. thank you for volunteering, okay. Versus five, six, seven eight,

  38. Okay, the rest of us we look okay, I guess yeah, we'll

  39. just read from the screen. Verse five. Come hell, and the new

  40. one sitting on the trone said, look, I'm making everything new. And

  41. then he said to me write this down, for what I tell you is

  42. trustworthy and true. Thank you, Ella. So what does it say making

  43. everything new? Okay, so addie? Verse six and he said also,

  44. and he also said it is finished. I am the Alpha and the Marga,

  45. the beginning and the end. To all who are thrust thirsty. I

  46. will give free leaf from the springs of the water of life. Oh,

  47. Buddie, thank you. And verse seven, all who is victorious will in

  48. her in herrings on the blessings, and I will be there caught and they

  49. will be my children. Man, thank you. And a sent Maggie for

  50. the last one. But coward and believe the corrupt murders the emperor, all

  51. those who practice craft I don't worshippers, and all liars. Their faith is

  52. in their prairie for this is the second that whoa thank you, Maggie.

  53. All right, you can go back to your seats. Okay. So see

  54. these four versus. First one says Jesus says, right, I'm bringing I'm

  55. making all things new, everything new. Right. So that's why we say

  56. with Jesus there is no end when it When there's an end, it's the

  57. new beginning. He makes all things new. But then actually the last verse

  58. here, verse eight, uh, says what but cowards were very strong words

  59. here, unbeliever us, the corrupt murderers. I pray none of us fall

  60. into this category here, cowards. What cowards are? Cowards are those who

  61. don't live by faith. Right. Opposite is of faith is fear. No

  62. faith is fear because when you need to have faith, you're going to have

  63. to do some some things that don't make sense. Like I said earlier,

  64. all right, uh, And so I don't want to back off like I

  65. don't want to know enough money rough time, you know, know enough energy.

  66. Then that's the word cowards. It's it's a strong word. Unbelievers,

  67. the corrupt murderers, the immoral right, those who practice witchcraft. Witch craft

  68. I read before, I think in Book of Samuel rebellion. Rebellion is witchcraft,

  69. right, and so if you are rebellious to whatever parents, rebellious you

  70. know, to your leaders, rebellious to the word of God, that's witchcraft.

  71. Be careful with that. I do worship ers and liars, what's their

  72. faith? The fiery lake of burning sulfur is secondary. And so there is

  73. an end without Jesus. Without Jesus, then that's the end. But with

  74. Jesus, it's a new beginning. Amen, hallelujah. So let's not end

  75. up into this category. Let's let's let's be people of faith who will follow

  76. Jesus. All right, And now I want to show you some more why

  77. with Jesus there is no end. Okay. Uh, Let's look at the

  78. Book of John right now. Book of John. I will go through chapters

  79. two to eleven, two to eleven. Don't worry, I won't read all

  80. of it. Okay. I'm just gonna talk and I'm gonna make maybe do

  81. a quiz and you you kind of tell me the answer. Okay, right,

  82. we did someone this chapters right here, right? I share this with

  83. x sks well speak of my mind, right uh? And Chan did basa

  84. translation? Yeah, Okay, so here we go in chapter two. Let's

  85. see what happened here? What's chapter two about? Jesus was inviteded to a

  86. wedding right where it's open book like in see chapter two Cana All right,

  87. children, tick part of so if you remember, Okay, this is a

  88. Bible quiz. Okay, uh, Jesus was invited to a wedding in Cana

  89. and so what happened there? What happened to the wine? What happened to

  90. the wine? Finished? Finished? That's another word for end. And everyone's

  91. looking at finish right, Sometimes we feel our life is finished. Okay,

  92. there's an end. But what happened when Jesus's mom told him, hey,

  93. do something? All right? Of course he said, it's not my time

  94. yet. You know, even when when it's not his time yet, he

  95. still does something. You know how amazing Jesus is. He's almost like,

  96. don't bother me, but I'm just gonna do something anyway. All right,

  97. Okay, your prayer like, oh lord man, this guys still praying these

  98. prayers. But I'm gonna do something anyway. Jesus loves you. He's gonna

  99. do something even if it bothers him. And I'm sure it doesn't bother him.

  100. Huh, he's he will still bless us. Right, So what happened?

  101. What? How? What he turned the water into wine? Right?

  102. He turned water into wine? And was it lousy wine? Was it lousy

  103. wine? It was rich wine. It was rich, it was expensive wine.

  104. I would say it was the best wine. Right. It is mentioned

  105. there right chapter two. When the person drank it, the master of the

  106. ceremony is like, oh, you kept the best wine. Normally people keep

  107. the lousy wine at the end because they give the first the good wine first,

  108. and then run out. Then when you bring the back up right expired

  109. wine. But but this one was the better wine, you know, miss

  110. He already gave good wine, and then later the wine that came that Jesus

  111. turned from water wine is even better. So I want to tell you again,

  112. with Jesus there is no and there's no end. Why because he makes

  113. new wine. He makes new wine. You feel like you know your life

  114. is at the end. The wedding was was it was gonna be a bad

  115. wedding, right? The party was bad, right because the guys maybe didn't

  116. budget properly, didn't buy enough wine or whatever it is. I don't know

  117. what the mistake was, but there was no more wine. But then Jesus

  118. does a miracle for them and they had the best wedding ever. Amen.

  119. So I want to prophesy that over your life as well. You know,

  120. you look, it looks like an end. Something looks bad, the results

  121. look bad. Whatever it is, when you'll bring it to Jesus, he's

  122. going to turn water into wine. Amen. Now chapter two was that?

  123. What's chapter Let me see, I'll go to chapter four. Okay. Chapter

  124. four is this woman from Samaria? Okay, what was her problem? She?

  125. Uh, you know, Jesus met her at well, she was ticking

  126. water, right, and she was avoiding people. Why was that right?

  127. She had a social problem. She didn't want to meet people, Okay,

  128. and so she at the end Jesus talked to her saying, you know,

  129. bring me your husband, right, he said, she's and she said no,

  130. I don't you know, I don't have a husband. Why Because then

  131. Jesus said, yeah, the person that you're living with is not your husband.

  132. And he knew stuff about her, and that's what she was amazed.

  133. Wow, this is the Messiah all right? But uh, what I'm trying

  134. to say here is she has given up on relationships. She has given up

  135. on love in that sense, right, anyone here you're giving up on love?

  136. Don't raise her hand. They have a broken heart, all right,

  137. I don't know what you went through, Okay, relationship, breakups, separation,

  138. all right, maybe you've given up and you say stuff like men are

  139. all the same, right, okay, giving up one girls, right,

  140. whatever, you're given up one. But this, this woman has given up.

  141. That's why she doesn't want to marry anymore. She's married many times,

  142. right, Mary separate, marry, Mary separate, and then finally, let's

  143. not even get married, let's just live together. That's what she's been doing.

  144. And so Jesus knows that. And so she has given up, and

  145. it looks like the end. But she meets Jesus at the well and he's

  146. not supposed to talk to her, but he does, right, And so

  147. with Jesus there is no and and so she gets, you know, pumped

  148. with life again and she wants to now do what is right. Because then

  149. she goes and calls tells everyone about the Messiah, and she calls them and

  150. the whole group comes to meet Jesus. Right, And so she's filled with

  151. hope again. And I believe, I mean it's not mentioned in the Bible,

  152. but I believe she started to do what's right again, all right.

  153. She I believe she's she stopped living with this guy, you know, without

  154. getting married, and she, you know, she goes back to the word

  155. of God. That's what I believe, because she you can hear the tone,

  156. you can hear the sound. She's filled with hope. And she said,

  157. I found the Messiah. Maybe she's given up on that as well.

  158. It was like, oh, so bad the relationships whatever. And I don't

  159. know whether there's still a God. Maybe there's someone here. I don't know

  160. what you're thinking. But she now found a Messiah again. And she said,

  161. now I believe there is God because I found a Messiah. And I'm

  162. gonna call people, but to tell everyone. And so that's what and that's

  163. how we save souls when we meet Jesus and when we are inspired by his

  164. word and his wonder, you know, his miracle in our lives. Amen.

  165. Now there was the next one about the woman. What's next? There's

  166. this guy in chapter five, Chapter five, there was a pool what's the

  167. name of the pool? Siloam right, there was this guy at the pool

  168. of Siloam, he was sitting there. How many years was he there?

  169. Children? How many years was this guy sitting at the pool of Siloam?

  170. Seven? Right? How many? How many years? Thirty eight years?

  171. Okay, we rounded up for you almost forty years, Okay, thirty eight

  172. years. This guy was sitting there. What is he doing there? What

  173. is he doing there? He's gotten used to his situation, He's gotten used

  174. to his his you know, I don't know what his situation is. That

  175. maybe his crippled, maybe he couldn't walk, but he's given himself that excuse

  176. not to do anything, but to sit there for thirty eight years, all

  177. right, And he claims, he says, oh, there's some healing there,

  178. you know, in a pool. If only I get there, it's

  179. just a few meters away, I think, all right, But he doesn't

  180. even try anymore. Thirty eight years. You can't tell. Why would anyone

  181. sit there for thirty eight years? Even if you waited. You know,

  182. I'm gonna try. I'm gonna try. I'm gonna try. At least two

  183. years you will reach there, right, But thirty eight years is this guy

  184. just sitting there? Like yeah, they're always going before me, No one

  185. helped me, poor me. Right, it's just excuses, complaints, grumbling,

  186. he doesn't care anymore, given up. Sounds like the end. But

  187. then Jesus comes and asks him, what are you doing here? Right?

  188. He's asking do you want to be healed? You know? When Jesus asked

  189. the question, he can't even answer it. He can't even answer it.

  190. He doesn't even say yes or no. What's the answer to do you want

  191. to be healed? Yes or no? Right? But if you say no,

  192. kind of something wrong? Right? Of course you want to be healed,

  193. Right, you have a problem. Of course you want to have financial

  194. breakthrough. Of course you want to be healed. Of course you want to

  195. get a good job. Of course you want to have good results. Right.

  196. Nobody says I want to have bad results. I purposally want to have

  197. bad results. Nobody wants that, right, And if anybody wants that,

  198. something is not right. So this guy can't even answer the question. Jesus

  199. asks, do you want to be healed? What does he say? He

  200. says, ah, you know, every time the water gets thered, I

  201. can't go it. He said. The answer to do you want to get

  202. healed? It doesn't make sense, right, So but he explains, and

  203. Jesus listens to him anyway, and Jesus says, get up and get up

  204. and walk, right, Jesus instructs him, and so he, thank God,

  205. he obeys Jesus. He gets up and he walks. That's a miracle.

  206. That's a miracle happening, all right. Jesus made him able to walk.

  207. And then he tells him go and sin no more, because you've been

  208. sitting sitting here for thirty eight years. It's a sin. It's a sin

  209. to sit around for thirty eight years. Tell your neighbor that it's a sin

  210. to sit around for thirty eight years. Right, If any one of you,

  211. you know, you're still sitting around, waiting around, not doing,

  212. not moving all right, Jesus tells you get up and walk and sin no

  213. more. All right, You got to move because the Holy Spirit always moves.

  214. Hey, man, he moves all that. There's time. Of course,

  215. he tells you to wait, but he doesn't tell you to wait for

  216. thirty eight years. Okay, I don't know about relationship, right, I

  217. like this girl wait for thirty eight years. Okay, maybe you tell you

  218. wait for a few years. Two years, one year, six months.

  219. God, but to it for thirty eight years. That doesn't doesn't make much

  220. sense. So okay, so uh, Jesus says, get up and walk.

  221. It goes and now he can walk, and the end is no more.

  222. It's a new beginning. This guy is a new life. So he

  223. moves and so with Jesus there is no and Jesus there's no end. Amen,

  224. harleelujah. Right there, We move on to chapter six. What is

  225. it? They were a lot of hungry people, hungry people. There's at

  226. least five thousand some some scholars say they didn't count the women for some reason.

  227. Okay, not that women don't count, but at that time the cultures,

  228. they just counted the men first because it's very hard to count, you

  229. know, mathematics was very good at that time. So five count, five

  230. thousand many enough? Really, then everythink, okay, we can include the

  231. women. And it would have been a ten thousand and children, all right,

  232. If at least there were five thousand children, maybe fifteen thousand people were

  233. there, right, a lot of people there. So it was a very

  234. difficult situation. Is a big project, right, big project? How many

  235. of you have handled big projects? Big projects? Huh. I'm sure many

  236. of you have, right, depends on some of you. The project looks

  237. big, but to others it's like I have done that really, okay,

  238. all right, and I have bigger projects. So there's a big project.

  239. And Jesus looks at his disciples and say you feed them. Wow, okay.

  240. And then to some of you, such a big project, you already

  241. give up, right. And so there's a big project, a lot of

  242. people hung. It looks like, you know, looks like hopelessness, looks

  243. like the end. And what happens. Jesus tells them to sit down.

  244. Tell the disciples, get them seated, right, And so they get him

  245. seated. And there was this guy who you know, they found this boy

  246. right at five loaves of bread and two fish. Okay, right, What

  247. was this guy's name? What was this boy's name who had five loaves and

  248. two fish? Huh, Gary Gerald, I can give him a name.

  249. Actually has no name, He has no name. His name is not mentioned.

  250. Jimmy, Okay, all right, So anyway we call him Jimmy and

  251. actually has no name. But this guy brings five loaves and two fish right

  252. to Jesus. Uh, And that's the best way to do it right,

  253. Bring it to Jesus. What you have, you have little, bring it

  254. to Jesus. Tell your neighbor, bring it to Jesus. Bring it to

  255. Jesus, because he's gonna do a miracle for us. And so what does

  256. he do? He multiplies the bread, right, he starts to distribute through

  257. the disciples. They give, and then all of them will fed to their

  258. hearts content. If you look in the Bible, you can see that to

  259. their heart's content, to means, to their satisfaction. You know, it's

  260. not half full, it's too full until there's too much left. That's how

  261. Jesus works too much. He goes more, he goes abundance, he goes

  262. generosity. All right, and some of us here we go like I don't

  263. have enough. Yeah, I know the feeling is real. Towards the end

  264. of the year, I felt like I don't have I didn't have enough.

  265. Christmas is quite scary, right, I think all the gifts all you have

  266. to buy and your Chinese, your Chinese Chinese news coming, yeah, yeah,

  267. till February Chinese news coming. You eve ang pao money is literal money

  268. in the packet giving like that, Okay, Christmas, you can still trick

  269. a bit, buy things from shopping in bout right, it's like a right

  270. and then and presents can look good, can look like expensive. But money

  271. you cannot trick people. You know they can. You can trick them for

  272. a while because the red packet looks nice. Then when they open its like,

  273. huh. Some people put Bible Versus in there, and and and and

  274. and they'll be like Christians will be okay, oh, thank god Bibles.

  275. But the Chinese family, if you're like many got okay anyway, right,

  276. so right, sometimes it is this is real, man, I feel it.

  277. I feel it towards the end. And then you know, my family

  278. loves holidays. Let's go for holidays. Sometimes I say, I actually love

  279. to stay at home, just just stay at home, you know, ride

  280. bicycle around the park, home cooked food, you know, things like that,

  281. because I love to save money. Sound like sounds like the cowards just

  282. kidding, all right, but you know, just being practical. Huh.

  283. But then you know, by faith, we always try to go for the

  284. holiday, all right, try to go for a break. And so the

  285. money froze, you know, flows, and so it's towards the end and

  286. then I feel, you know, sometimes afraid money. Where's the money?

  287. All right? And you know God always comes true for us. God always

  288. comes true us. You know. Uh tell a bit. You know,

  289. we have a family member, we have an uncle. Uh. I've heard

  290. of some stories in the true jailties not very friendly when it comes to Christians,

  291. you know, but uh, this year he actually wished the family very

  292. Christmas, y'all. And he sends one interesting video, you know, got

  293. some songs non non Christian or non Christian version of Christmas, you know.

  294. And I took the opportunity. I took the opportunity because the family members maybe

  295. they they they've been trying to preach. But then I think through the years

  296. they they don't know, so you know, they don't preach so outrightly.

  297. But I took the opportunity, you know, I just heard Passica's message and

  298. then I, you know, I used, you know, the verses from

  299. Isaiah, and I said, you know, may you all experience and know

  300. you know the true meaning of I can't remember the exact words of Christmas.

  301. And I said, you know that you know God as yours as the wonderful

  302. God counselor you know, Almighty God, Prince of peace in your life.

  303. I preached out rightly in the message, in my Christmas message, and I

  304. thought, like, you know, ah, I don't know, it's gonna

  305. it's gonna, you know, ruffle some feathers. Some of the family members

  306. may not be so happy to hear these words. But it was okay,

  307. it was calm. There was no response. And then this the same uncle

  308. blessed us with some money. Non believer, all right, blessed with somebody.

  309. And I said, praise God. Wow, I thought I had nothing.

  310. I had nothing left but praise God. He you know, even when

  311. I preached out rightly in the chat group, he was still happy to bless

  312. us. Well, I said, I told you this is price gott,

  313. this is really blessing, all right, and it's really God's way of of

  314. honoring us. So thank God, we have enough. Amen, and so

  315. uh, I want to say with Jesus there is no and feeding five thousand,

  316. our and so and so right, there's many more if we go on

  317. until chapter eleven. There was the woman right caught in adultery chapter eight,

  318. and she was going to die. There was you know, they were going

  319. to stone her. And Jesus says, right, the first one who has

  320. no sin, you can stone her, and they didn't, and he didn't.

  321. He was the one with no sin, and he was the one who

  322. had the right to stone her, but he didn't. And he says,

  323. go and sin no more. Again, he releases her with Jesus. There's

  324. no end. Right, she was gonna she was supposed to die, but

  325. Jesus let her free. Jesus forgives her, and Jesus gives a new direction.

  326. Go and sit no more, live a new life, Amen, hallelujah.

  327. And then it was a blind man right got his side. And then

  328. finally we have Lazarus who was dead. He was really dead, right,

  329. they confirm, make sure he was dead for four days at least. But

  330. Jesus brought him back to life. And so the end what looks like the

  331. end, Jesus gives new life to Lazarus. Hallelujah. We hope you've been

  332. blessed by this message. For more information on our church, please visit as
