SUNDAY COLLECTIONS
1) Offerings
Commencing from 7 August 2022 (Sunday), a group of our brothers & sisters-in-Christ has committed to count the cash offerings after Sunday worship services.
This is in anticipation of increased cash offerings following the resumption of on-site activities at our church premises.
However, if you are able to and/or convenient to do so, we encourage you to give your offerings electronically.
2) Receipt Issuance
As part of the efforts to go Green, except for "Sunday offerings", e-receipts would be sent to your email or mobile phone registered with our church unless otherwise advised. No receipt would be issued for offerings indicated as "Sunday offerings" or collections that have no specific indication. e-Receipts will be sent to you via the Church WhatsApp number. We assure members that such ereceipts are NOT sent as broadcast messages to the whole church.
For clarification on the above, please contact Wendy (Admin Manager) at our Church Office, Tel: 62938757

日期 Date 31/7/2022
Sermon Discussion Questions:
Introduction
1. It is normal for the church to have frequent conflicts. (v1-5)
2. The ways to Unity:
a. Related to Salvation: Seeking Unity with Christian Truth (v6-19)
Ways to discern God’s revelation:
• Experience of the whole assembly (v7-12)
• The Biblical Basis (v 14-18)
• Rational Analysis (v19)
b. Related to Fellowship: Seeking unity with Christian love (v19-21)
Conclusion:
In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, charity.” -St. Augustine
Discussion:
1. Have you ever experienced a heated argument in FMC？What do you think was the cause? How did you handle it at that time?
2. What does today's Scripture remind you about dealing with conflicts in church?
3. Have you recently found yourself in some conflict or difference of opinion with a believer or some believers? How do you feel about it? How do you find a balance between truth and love?
