Free teabag......



Yesterday while inside the car my bro ask me........

Bro: Did u hear about free teabag?

I: Nope. Got meh?

Bro: Got!

I: So good har? Where got free teabag?

Bro: What teabag? I was saying about free T-I-B-E-T!

I: Oh......


Felt it was quite funny that I got the message from my bro wrongly. The word "free" always strike a cord with Singaporeans. People always dash to queue up for free stuff. I too, would want to know where teabags are given for free.

Sadly, we seldom see people queuing up to listen to the gospel(except in those prosperity churches where a different gospel is preached).

We are always so caught up with the things in this life that it is no longer attractive for churches to preach a gospel which emphasizes sin and repentance. Instead, people want to hear how much money God can give you, how he can solve your money/emotional woes.

Yes, the gospel is free, but it is not cheap. By over-emphasizing on certain aspects, it not only cheapens the gospel, but also lead people astray.
