Here I am again... sitting in one of the offices in the supreme court building. Got called here for NDP at the last minute. Hopefully they will release us at 5 o'clock. Sigh... I miss home. At least they have internet here...

I went for bible study at The Rock in Suntec City yesterday. I had to rush down in a cab. The journey took like 45 minutes and i felt carsick because of the way the cabbie was driving... And the cost of the cab ride was $19.40... Insane. Hopefully I'll be able to leave camp earlier for next week's session. I loved the worship there. I miss having such wonderful worship. We used to have that kind of worship at our church. Maybe not as technically skilled as the musicians and vocalists at The Rock but it was there... I don't know what happened the past few weeks. Is it me or is it the bands? I just find that our worships are becoming more jarring.

Pastor Derek Prince was talking alot on the message of grace. About how we're the generation that will see the rapture. And about how the modern day church is not moving into the 'Holy of Holies'. (The place where the ark and the presence of God was residing in the temple of God) And about how we've simply remained in 'the Holy Place', which isn't a bad thing by the way, just that we've got so much more in store for us. One thing that got me thinking was what Pastor Prince said...

"Jesus died to rid us of sin-conciousness."
I always thought why we worship Him in the first place was because we know how sinful we are and how holy He is. And that He chose to love us anyway and take away our sins. Does that mean we know no more sin? Or we are no longer conscious or aware of sin?
Something to think about.....
