harvesting the bad grain
have i told you about city harvest?
i don't know why i have such strong feelings about this particular church, because i can't pin down one specific nagging reason behind this stand, but i guess sometimes, instincts do help.
when you enter the church, you get the impression that it's a very up-to-date church. hip. people are well-dressed, no more than when they go clubbing. just want to share with you some very interesting things i have observed during my few visits there.
1) they love statistics. 5000 people were converted in one conference, another dunno how many passed PSLE with flying colours...
2) in their weekly bulletins, they STIPULATE how many hours a person needs to study, explicit classifying them into pri, sec, jc, poly, uni etc. this is nothing but stupid.
3) in one visit, they managed to slide a letter into the bulletin, seemingly to justify why ho yeow sun deserved to be termed a pastor and refuting the press' alleged negative statements about her
4) disgusting and shamelessly, they always publicize ho yeow sun. "buy her cds!" they would eagerly flash at every service on the big screen, as if the proceeds go to the church fund.
5) the only church in singapore where a pastor isn't a pastor but someone who is a pastor on the basis that she is the pastor's wife. the husband in turn names himself senior pastor simply because he's the founder of the church. talk about deserving.
6) arguably the most costly church in spore. tens of millions for its jurong west compound
7) not only helped organized the FOP 05, but sold it's own cds there at 18?
8) "first, take our your wallet, then take out your money, put it in the envelope, and GIVE EXTRAVAGANTLY, ABUNDANTLY" blah blah all that jazz. dont be lame lah kong hee hee. ure not leading a bunch of kindergarten kids. u think ure the only one who speaks good english?
9) camera cranes. macham the ones in mediacorp.
10) video-conferencing facilities. can't you wait till the leaders come back?
many people consider new creation the parallel of city harvest. oh come on. a world of difference.
