Artaxerxes, Daniel, and the Crucifixion: The Undeniable Prophecy That Proves the Bible’s Divine Inspiration. (Daniel 9:25)

Exploring Daniel 9:25, I discovered a prophecy so precise it shook my skepticism. Historical records of Artaxerxes and the crucifixion align perfectly, revealing the Bible’s divine fingerprints. This realization anchored my faith through suffering, proving Scripture is more than history—it is God’s inspired Word, alive and true. … More Artaxerxes, Daniel, and the Crucifixion: The Undeniable Prophecy That Proves the Bible’s Divine Inspiration.

Joseph Prince’s “Give Me This Mountain” (A man that had few years to live reflects)

“Give me this mountain”, spoken by Caleb has always had a special place in my heart. It’s stored just above my boxes of disappointments with the world, my near-death experiences and faded scars to where wounds on my body used to be. Today, those boxes are covered by a scarlet cloth that make those boxes that were once decrepit to redemptively unmistakable.

I suppose you can call this blogpost “what Give Me This Mountain!” means to a person with a few years left to live. I hope this blogpost gives you a different perspective from a person who has gone through his “40-year wandering” to add dimensions to an already powerful verse in the Bible. … More Joseph Prince’s “Give Me This Mountain” (A man that had few years to live reflects)

The Predictive Mind Under Prolonged Suffering

I’ve been developing a theological companion to the book—a kind of foundational operating system consisting of biblical, theological, and psychological concepts that undergird the larger project I’m currently writing, tentatively titled 10,000 Days of Sickness: A Christian Memoir and Survival Manual through Prolonged Suffering and the Impossible Constraints of the Abyss. So, partly as an … More The Predictive Mind Under Prolonged Suffering

Pinpointing the Start of Artaxerxes I Longimanus’s Reign: Why 465 BC is Rock-Solid

Artaxerxes I Longimanus began his reign in 465 BC after the assassination of Xerxes I, a date firmly anchored by Babylonian cuneiform tablets, Ptolemy’s Canon, and Greek historians. This convergence of evidence secures the timeline of Nehemiah’s mission in 444 BC, aligning Daniel’s prophecy with Christ’s crucifixion. … More Pinpointing the Start of Artaxerxes I Longimanus’s Reign: Why 465 BC is Rock-Solid

From PSLE 211 to Ivy League: Beating 0.0001% odds and the Christian Faith.

I got 211 for my PSLE (Primary School Leaving Examination) in Singapore in 1987. This score is considered between the 40th and 50th percentile nationally. I eventually scored 4As for A-levels, then got into an Ivy-League graduating from Chemical Engineering with a Cum Laude. I fed ChatGPT my educational statistics. I asked it to give … More From PSLE 211 to Ivy League: Beating 0.0001% odds and the Christian Faith.

Why God doesn’t always answer prayers the way we want

We often want quick and myopic answers to our prayers. It’s in our nature. We cannot help being myopic – not knowing what we don’t know if perhaps the greatest of our weaknesses. If God’s grace is boundless and it is his general will that we all prosper as our souls also prosper, does it … More Why God doesn’t always answer prayers the way we want

Don’t miss the great revelation behind “delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart” (Psalm 37:4)

“I delighted myself in the Lord. I worshipped, I sang, I served.” My wife continued, “but how does it work when my prayers don’t get answered? I didn’t win the lottery, I didn’t get pregnant last few months, I didn’t get the job I wanted.”

I think many people go through similar experiences and in understanding the verse this way, it understandibly leads to disappointment.

“I think there are two things that I suspect if you chew on, will open up that verse to it’s full potential.” I replied thoughtfully. … More Don’t miss the great revelation behind “delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart” (Psalm 37:4)

Little “Gods”, The Oven and Futility.

This post is for the people who are suffering to the brink of being broken, but also for those who haven’t got to that point but want to know the thoughts of a brother that has gone ahead in the journey of longsuffering and impossible adversities.

Dear sufferer, this is for you. I hope this revelation on suffering, the form that God can use, might cause suffering to “lose it’s teeth”, and we can have courage to traverse this season into victory on the other side.

I call this post Little gods, the Oven and Futility.

What I learnt from Carl Lentz’s failing …

Last month Hillsong pastor Carl Lentz publicly admitted to cheating on his gorgeous wife of 17 years who he met when they were both Hillsong Bible college students. He has since been fired from Hillsong Church. Sadly, cheating preachers, pedophile priests, snake-oil televangelists have existed before, but why did this particular episode hit me differently? … More What I learnt from Carl Lentz’s failing …

My Prayer for the US Election outcome.

The US elections are here, my prayer is for God to preserve the precious soul of the country. Why? I am not American, but I have spent 12 years living in America in three blocks of 3 to 4 years. While I was in grade school in California, then university in New York, and then working as a business analyst in Nashville. I spent the rest of my life in Asia. Because of this, I realized many things about America that some Americans don’t realize because they have always stayed in America and hence don’t realize what they have because they have nothing to compare it with. There is a spirit in America that is intangible but very real. … More My Prayer for the US Election outcome.
