Dear All,
Ai Mo Dah Yu Xin Srrrrrr
Try to translate this into Mandarin.
Despair was the worst negative emotion of humanity. Hope was the antidote against despair.

Concerning the last day of our life, there was an interesting story about Mendel, who discovered the laws of heredity. Mendel discovered such laws by observing the pea. Someone asked Mendel what he would do if Jesus Christ would come tomorrow, and his answer was I would observe the pea. Hopefully we could live our daily life AS IF that Jesus Christ would come today or tomorrow. Daily living in the last day would be the best preparation to face the last day...

Dear All,
Yeah, the self-righteousness might be the most heinous sin of a Christian. Self-righteousness was committed by the Pharisees of Jesus' days. So Jesus rebuked them publicly and repeatedly, with a hope of bringing them to their repentance

Dear all,
The setting up of the city of refuge was very interesting. It might also symbolize Jesus Christ. He was our refuge.

All legal system would differentiate between deliberation murder and accidental killing. The problem was how to find out the inner motivation of the killer. Jesus Christ also emphasized the importance of our inner motivation (Matthew 5:23, 28)

Dear JBC,
Yeah, the meaning of seven is perfect, so seventy seven means the perfect of perfect. Completely forgiving... Yet, someone would interpret it as meaning four hundreds and ninety times.... So another issue of interpretation...

Dear Mou,
You are right, because church consisted of fallible just forgiven sinners, though in the process of perfection...
The empty seat was often used to deal with some inner desire, when the family experienced a bereavement, or Jewish family in their new year festival still kept an empty seat to expect the coming of Elijah. (Mal 4:5)

Dear Eileen, Peng An,
You are right, humanity seemed to be tainted with selfishness, which might be part of the so called original sin....

Dear YuZe,
Yeah, any scripture could be distorted and abused to fit selfish purpose....
