Happy National Day

CGBC Youth wishes Malaysia a HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!!!

In the national day message, PM Najib said that the time had come for the current generation to take the lead to propel the country to greater heights. Similarly, what better time is it than now for this current generation of CGBC YOUTHS to take the lead for Jesus, our Almighty God?

How exactly do we do that? We will need to worship God, not only just in church every Sunday, but every day, in our daily life. God is not interested in religious pageantry and ceremony, but He is concerned with LIFE. Hebrews 13:9b says "It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by ceremonial foods, which are of no value to those who eat them." Christianity is not a matter of externals but a matter of the heart.

So even as we go about our daily life, remember that we are to continue practising our faith. Hebrews 13 also teaches us to "keep on loving each other as brothers. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it." (v1-2)

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." - James 1:27
