"I have been a Christian my entire life, but my lifestyle had not been a worthy representation for Christ even though the Lord had blessed me richly.
I was a CEO in a non-profit organization and had tried my best to be a good influence for my employees and those I served. But I lived a secret life dominated by pot smoking, alcohol, and pornography. I knew I was leading a double life. Needless to say, despite my best intentions, I lost my job, my reputation was tarnished, and all that I had built up was torn down.
During that time, I kept asking God to forgive me and change my heart. I knew I couldn’t become the person I wanted to be without the help of the Holy Spirit. But no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t change my behavior. Then, I found your program on television and as I listened to your teaching on God’s grace, my spirit started to stir within me. It took many months of listening before anything changed in my life.
Pastor Prince, your message of grace was the turning point for me. When I heard God loves me and cares for me even as I struggled with my sins, my heart was moved and I knew it was time to change. You said to remind myself, even in my sin, that I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I did that and I also started partaking of the holy Communion daily. I also received a vision that inspired me to change the way I was living.
With the help of the Holy Spirit, I lost the desire to smoke pot, drink, and watch pornography! Today I am delivered from my shameful addictions and have joined a local church where I can enjoy the company of fellow believers. I earnestly seek God’s will for me and ask for Him to complete the plan He has started in me.
Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings because they changed my life so that I could become the person God wants me to be. With the years I have left on this earth, I wish to serve God and be an instrument of His grace and love. God bless you for reminding me how much God loves me."

down to earth person 在 Milton Goh Blog and Sermon Notes Facebook 的最佳解答
Where is Jesus Now?
“Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17:24 WEB)
The day is coming whereby Jesus’ prayer request in the verse above will be fulfilled.
We, the church (bride of the Lamb) will be received by our heavenly bridegroom into His Father’s house.
How amazing it will be to live where Jesus is, to see His glory in person.
Did you know that even the apostles who have since fallen asleep in death are not yet exactly where Jesus is?
“In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.” (John 14:2-3 WEB)
Jesus resides with Abba God in the sanctuary that is on the Mount Zion in the Heavenly Jerusalem. That is the location of God’s throne.
The Jerusalem on earth is actually a miniature mirror image of the Jerusalem above. Even the layout is the same—God made sure this was so.
None of the saints are there in the sanctuary yet. Those who are dead in Christ are in a part of Heaven called Paradise which is the garden of God.
“I know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I don’t know, or whether out of the body, I don’t know; God knows), such a one caught up into the third heaven. I know such a man (whether in the body, or outside of the body, I don’t know; God knows), how he was caught up into Paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.” (2 Corinthians 12:2-4 WEB)
In the original Greek, the word is Paradeison which means “a pleasure garden”. In Hebrew, the name is translated as “Gan Eden”, which is literally the Garden of Eden. Eden also means “pleasure”. Both the Greek and Hebrew agree that it is the Garden of Eden.
So that is where the Garden of Eden and the tree of life went! It was translated up to Heaven, protecting the tree of life from the world-destroying flood, and is now used as a waiting area for the saints.
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of my God.” (Revelation 2:7 WEB)
We see that this is true. The Holy Spirit testifies that the tree of life is now in the Paradise (Garden of Eden) in Heaven. The cherubim with fiery swords who guard the entrance to the garden do not stop the saints there from accessing the tree of life!
The dead in Christ are still waiting for the Rapture so that they can receive their glorified bodies and finally be where Jesus is.
If what I’m saying is not true, then Jesus would not have said to the apostles, “I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.”
We know that the apostles who heard these words spoken by Jesus have already fallen asleep in death.
This promise will be fulfilled at the Rapture. The Lord will come back, and in the air, He will receive us to Himself. The apostles and all the saints will receive glorified bodies, and we will finally be with Jesus!
These days, I find myself reading and re-reading the four gospels a lot because I love to read Jesus’ words and read about Him in action. Such a perfect, wonderful God-Man, and He is our Lord.
Have you read my eBook bundle “Understand the Four Gospels Through the Lens of Grace”? It is packed full of revelations that will make difficult and confusing pieces of Scripture easy to understand. Every parable, miracle, and action is explained.
These are what some of the readers have been saying:
“We highly recommend this book. Milton breaks it down for all to understand. Such a powerful book that will touch your heart like it touches ours. Hallelujah! Get ready to grow in Grace in the knowledge of King Jesus!” - Juan Espino, USA
“I use this for preparing for bible study group. Great commentary.” - Tammie S, USA
“Well worth the money. Wish I had done it sooner. Wonderful study.” - Linda B, USA

【國立臺灣大學109學年度畢業典禮 致詞代表 政治學系林語萱】
Student Address, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
Yu-Hsuan Lin from the Department of Political Science
.
校長、師長、家長,和在螢幕前難以置信這就是我們的畢典,卻也真實面對的所有臺大畢業生,大家好,我是政治學系四年級的林語萱。
比起說著我們會鵬程萬里、前程似錦,今天,我更想邀請各位一同擔任NTU Sweety Course的貢獻者,整理出綜合過去四年,且能帶著走出校園的三個成長學分:勇氣、彈性和自己。
大二上,我休了學,在零下三十幾度的低溫、強颱般的逆風和看不見天際線的白色大地中,越野滑雪了半個多月,只為了跟著亞洲第一支南極長征隊伍,在世界的盡頭,找到那個能夠超越極限的自己。參與這個計畫,或許是大多人眼中的不正常,然而它卻成為了我人生中最有收穫的選擇之一。相信在臺大這個充滿可能性的校園裡,許多人心中,也有這麼一個想征服的南極,它可能不怎麼正常,也不怎麼容易,但別忘了帶著勇氣這個學分去做、去闖你認爲是對的事物。
再來,還有個學分,叫做彈性。還記得那些腳踏車被水源阿伯給拖吊,只好改成走路或騎Ubike2.0的日常嗎?我們在一次又一次的校內小組合作、校外的家教實習中,反覆上著適應不同情況的實驗課,而疫情又加重了它的loading,原本以為上一屆已經夠慘,沒想到這一屆竟然還更糟的情況下,我們滾動式的調整上課的樣貌,努力用NTU Cool的1.5倍速上課。在唯一不變就是變的這個世間常態中,臺大教會了我們保持彈性的生存之道。
最後,最最重要的學分,是我們自己,沒錯,就是在螢幕前的每一個你你你。從大一忙碌於轉系和雙主修的菜鳥,變成焦慮著左右張望他人下一步的大四老人,我們總汲汲營營的害怕落後別人,擔心無法成為自己心中想成為的樣子,但當回過頭,騎過幾千次椰林大道後的我們,其實早已不是從前那個自己了。所以未來,當外界的環境,督促和逼迫著我們精益求精,好還要更好時,記得回到內心,聽聽它的聲音,由它來告訴我們:你不必成為誰,你只需要相信自己。
除了勇氣、彈性和自己這三個學分外,還有一張加簽單也別忘記,是一路陪伴我們的家人和師長,一個人的任性,需要很多人的愛才能夠成全,謝謝你們在成長路上的陪伴和鼓勵,我們才能夠放肆的任性。
最後的最後,我想起了一戰後的西班牙大流感,它帶走的生命比戰爭還多,但在時間洪流下也終究有結束的一天。誰知道一百多年後的今天,我們也被迫參與了歷史的進程。也許未來看似困難重重,但卡繆在瘟疫裡提醒了我們:「惟有甘願在困難的堅實土壤中去生根立足,才能夠獲得果實。」今天後的明日,我們將在不同的土壤中勇敢挑戰、彈性應對和相信自己,且帶著滿滿的愛去生根立足,為自己、為我們所身處的社會,產出最甜美的果實。準備好了嗎?讓我們一起推動歷史的進程吧!臺大109屆的畢業生們,畢業快樂,或許現在的我們無法面對面相聚,but I’ll see you down the road!謝謝大家。

President Kuan, respected faculty, honored guests and family, and to my fellow NTU graduates who would never have imagined our commencement hosted in this way but still making the best of it, good morning. I am YU-HSUAN LIN, from Department of Political Science.
Rather than wishing the best and the brightest futures to us all, today, I want to urge each and every one of you to join in and contribute to NTU Sweety Course, and put together three amongst the most important credits from these past four years. They are courage, elasticity, and ourselves.
I took a temporary leave in my sophomore year. At minus 30 degrees Celsius, with howling headwinds and blizzards all over the sky, I did cross-country skiing for more than half a month, to challenge myself beyond the limit at the very end of the world. My Antarctic venture may seem absurd to many, but it was one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done in my life. At NTU, a campus of endless possibilities, we all have a South Pole in our hearts, an undoubtedly challenging and perhaps laughable goal we yearn to achieve. But do not forget the credit of courage we have gained from these past years, and choose whatever it is that you believe is right.
The next credit, is adaptability. Do you remember the days when our bikes being towed and having to walk or take Ubike 2.0 to class? We learned to adapt through group projects in the classes and private tutoring off-campus, and the ongoing pandemic has added extra loading to our everyday challenges. We thought the previous year was bad, but this year is even worse. We adjust the way we took courses on a rolling basis, trying to catch up from NTU COOL at 1.5x speed. The only thing that doesn't change is change itself. NTU taught us how to adapt to survive.
Last but not least, and arguably the most important credit, is ourselves. That’s right, It’s each and every one of you behind the screens. From a first-year newbie busy planning your double major or transfer, to a senior wandering around anxiously as our peers taking next steps, we work hard painstakingly in fear of falling behind of other, and wonder if we can become the person we want to be. But looking back, after countless rides along the Royal Palm Boulevard, our old selves have already long gone. So, in the future, when the outside world is constantly pushing us to make the best even better and to reach beyond limits, remember to listen to that little voice inside of you. Listen to it as it tells you, there isn’t a certain or definite role you must fulfill, all you need is to have faith in yourself.
Besides the three credits I just mentioned, don’t forget the Petition for Adding Course: our families and professors who accompanied us along our journeys. It requires loves from many to accomplish caprice of one. Thank you for your company and encouragement along the way to allow us to be self-willed boldly.
Lastly, the Spanish flu outbreak after WWI came to my mind recently. It took even more lives than the battle fields. However, it too, eventually ended as time went by. Who knew that after a hundred years, we would also be a part of a similar history? It seems that adversities are awaiting us, but Albert Camus had already reminded us in La Peste “Like wandering shadows that could have acquired substance only by consenting to root themselves in the solid earth of their distress.” When tomorrow comes, in different corners on the Earth, we shall challenge, respond adaptively, and believe in ourselves. With each step that we take, we take with all the love there is within us. Let us contribute to ourselves and to our society, and may our efforts bear the sweetest fruits. Are you ready? Let’s push history forward! Hats off to all NTU graduates of 2021! Although we are unable to celebrate face to face now, I’ll see you down the road! Thank you all!

蕃薯嬰仔代表著腳踏實地
蕃薯嬰仔代表著刻苦耐勞
用這首歌為正在奮鬥的人們加油
In the past, when the native Taiwanese just came to Taiwan to reclaim this new land and cultivation. At the time, they lived in a poor environment and there wasn't much food but only sweet potato. It was their only food.
‘Han G’ is the Taiwanese way of saying sweet potato.
‘Han G Kiann’ means sweet potato kids in Taiwanese, and also it is the metaphor of a person who is down to earth and work hard for living.
Hopefully, this song can cheer up those people who work hard for their living and dreams.
