Inter College Games 2024
On 1 March 2024, five seminaries gathered at Trinity Theological College for the annual Inter College Games. Everyone gathered at the Bukit Panjang Methodist Church Sanctuary which was on the same grounds for a time of worship before the games kicked off. The games that were contested included a 5km rail corridor run, tele-match, table-tennis, captain’s ball, football, frisbee, chess, e-games, cooking mama, and bible quiz. We are grateful to the Student Councils of all the participating Bible schools for organising the various events.
EAST Podcast: Creation Part 1 – Young Earth View
The Bible repeatedly holds up a few key events as evidence of the divine power and sovereignty of God. One of these events is the creation of the world (Isaiah 40:26, Psalm 33:6-9, Romans 1:20).
Throughout history, Christians have strongly affirmed that God created the world by his command, out of nothing. And indeed, affirming that God is the one who created all things is a core tenet of the Christian faith.
Recently though, debates have emerged over exactly how God created the world. Beginning with Darwin’s theory of evolution and continuing with modern scientific assertions that the earth is around 4.54 billion years old, Christians have been confronted with a continuous attempt by the scientific community to explain the origin and nature of the world on purely naturalistic terms, without any reference to God.
Lenten Devotional by Dr Alvin Tey
What Is Lent?
The season of Lent is the period of 40 days before Easter. The word Lent is derived from the Old English word “lencten’ meaning springtime or spring, and also from the West Germanic word “langitinaz” meaning long-days or the lengthening of the day[1]. As suggested by its root words, the season of Lent not only coincides with the season of spring in the northern hemisphere, but it also signifies a period of spiritual renewal after death or after long days in the spiritual wilderness.
