Dear reader,
axiomation has moved on due to various changes, and each individual would be moving on, getting closer with God in various places/cells.
do pray for us, that each of us would ultimately be moving towards the common goal, getting closer to God, as an individual, as a cell and as a body of Christ.
nevertheless, axiomation would never cease to exist. in our hearts and our memories. as we move on, into a next level of intimacy in our walk with God.
moving on.

(This is a very good reminder to us that we are ambassadors of Christ. people always say things like 'i dont want christianity because of some bad christians i know'. it's unfair to God to say this but it is also true that we should reflect His character and glory. **It is indeed a very difficult and heavy responsibility but let us not waver and continue running the race with perseverance!)
Several years ago, a preacher from out-of-state accepted a call to a church in Houston, Texas. Some weeks after he arrived, he had an occasion to ride the bus from his home to the downtown area. When he sat down, he discovered that the driver had accidentally given him a quarter too much change.
As he considered what to do, he thought to himself, "You'd better give
the quarter back. It would be wrong to keep it.." Then he thought, "Oh, forget it, it's only a quarter. Who would worry about this little amount? Anyway, the bus company gets too much fare; they will never miss it. Accept it as a 'gift from God' and keep quiet."
When his stop came, he paused momentarily at the door, and then he handed the quarter to the driver and said, "Here, you gave me too much change."
The driver, with a smile, replied, "Aren't you the new preacher in town?
"Yes" he replied.
"Well, I have been thinking a lot lately about going somewhere to worship. I just wanted to see what you would do if I gave you too much change. I'll see you at church on Sunday."
When the preacher stepped off the bus, he literally grabbed the nearest light pole, held on, and said, "Oh God, I almost sold your Son for a quarter."
Our lives are the only Bible some people will ever read. This is a really scary example of how much people watch us as Christians, and will put us to the test! always be on guard -- and remember - You carry the name of Christ on your shoulders when you call yourself "Christian."
(sometimes, we say that we are JUST a christian. but being JUST a christian is a very difficult thing indeed. It is only for those with true courage. do you have it?)

Hey guys,
I have like 28 more days before my internship finishes. So currently in the 5/8 week.
Just to let you know,
Was knocked down by a motorbike/scooter last Sunday night. But thank God that I didn't fly in the air/get any cuts/see any blood. Just got a small bruise on my right arm.
Somehow the taxi alighted my friend and I at the pathway meant for "two wheelers" (humans not included). I got out and saw that the road was clear of traffic and I cross to head to the pedestrian pathway. And out of no where this motorbike didn't honk at me or anything, and I got hit.
Thankfully, I already had cross almost 70% of the road so I wasn't fully hit. Feels like my right arm and leg got hit by a soccer ball. The impact made me fall on my bum. And I was sitting on the road. The driver turned to my direction (he had a helmet on), then I wanted to get of the road fast before I get into anymore accident. And when I turn around the guy left.
Really thankful I'm still alive. Just that I'm a little weary when I cross then road especially when I see a motorbike on the road. I'll just have to pray and try to overcome that fear.
Now my lecturers all want me to see a doc. But I haven't really thought of doing that because the bruise is looks like a big mosquito bite.
Just got to tell this whole thing to my supervisor tomorrow.
Cheerios,
Sam
