He Who Is Forgiven Much, Loves Much
The verse in Luke 7:47 baffles me. There, Jesus said, “Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
Does it mean that only those with many sins and have been forgiven are able to love God deeply? And those whose lives are not so messed up will not be able to express and experience that deep love for God? I don’t think that’s what Jesus meant. To me, this verse seems like an invitation to those who are hungry to search out the hidden and deeper truths of God.
It reminds me of the ‘Super Lemon’ sweet, which is very sour on the outside but sweet on the inside. To get to the sweet part, you’ve to endure the initial sourness in read more...
Services This Weekend
Title: The Two Fields of Cornerstone
Date: 18 May 2019
Venue I Time: Cornerstone Katong 5pm
Speaker: Ps. Yang Tuck Yoong
God has given us wonderful promises and a great inheritance in the nations. We must not lose sight of the prize. In June 2008, in a conference that my spiritual father, Bro. Brian Bailey was speaking in, he shared how he was given a vision of a beautiful lake in Heaven and by the side of this lake, was a gorgeous field of daffodils. He asked his heavenly escort what this field represented and was told that the members of Cornerstone had planted this field in heaven. This is significant and we need to unpack the promises of God.

Title: The Hidden Lesson of Exodus
Date: 19 May 2019
Venue I Time: Cornerstone Bugis 9am / 10.30am
Speaker: Ps. Lim Lip Yong
Exodus contains such an amazing account of national deliverance that it’s often quoted as the inspiration of Freedom Movements. Such is the attractiveness of the book that many movies have been made about it. But contained within the subtext of Exodus are five events that duplicate itself over the course of the book. These five double narratives reveal to us an amazing instruction – not only for what it takes to obtain freedom, but what’s needed to sustain it.
Title: Lost!
Date: 18 May 2019
Venue I Time: Cornerstone Katong 1.30pm
Speaker: Ps. Sng Peh Han
The fundamental problem with man is that he’s hopelessly lost and inclined to evil. We’re in bondage to our sinful desires and are in serious trouble. We’re lost from God, from ourselves and from the people around us. Good becomes boring; sin and evil become attractive. God sent us a Saviour because of the depth of the sin of mankind. His heart is for the lost, our task is to attract the world to the saving beauty of Christ and bring them home.
