INTRODUCTION TO YEAR
2011
Christ, Our Foundation
“And
are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ
Himself being the chief corner stone.”
Ephesians 2:20
The True Life Bible-Presbyterian Church
Young People’s Fellowship (YPF) is a ministry of True Life
Bible-Presbyterian Church. It ministers to all the young people ranging
from primary school to young adults. 2 Timothy 2:2 says, “And the
things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit
thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.”
Hence, the YPF seeks to be a faithful and teaching fellowship where
“iron sharpeneth iron” (Proverbs 27:17).
Many of us have been attending church
worship service and even fellowship group meetings regularly. Although
we have received much spiritual nourishment through countless godly
sermons from God’s Word and God’s ministers, how many of us have
actively and diligently searched and sought after the Scriptures, that
we may be “ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh
you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear”? (1
Peter 3:15) Too often we are caught up with the affairs of this world,
and seldom set aside precious time to study God’s Word actively and
aggressively, that we be grounded in the faith, which is especially
important in these last days as false doctrines and heresies abound.
Through learning, we may then unflinching wield the Sword through His
enabling, holding fast to the precious Word of God. We are reminded by
our YPF verse, Ecclesiastes 12:1 – “Remember now thy Creator in the
days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw
nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them”. We can only
remember the Creator if we know Him, and we can only know Him through
the diligent study of His Word.
As such, we have adopted the theme “Christ,
Our Foundation”, taken from Ephesians 2:20 for 2011. Having covered a
wide range of topics over the past 6 years, it is both edifying and
beneficial to revisit the fundamental doctrines in a deeper aspect. Even
as we continue to defend the infallibility, inerrancy and preservation
of the Holy Scriptures, it is important to have a clear understanding of
the fundamental doctrines of that same Bible on which we base our faith,
practice and all aspects of life upon. The Lord God has preserved every
word, to the very “jot and tittle”; it is therefore our duty to study
and meditate upon every word that we may know His Word deeply by the
Holy Spirit’s enabling. Only then can we hold to His Word firmly, and
based on the Scriptures, live out His Word completely by God’s grace.
Our series of messages will be based on the
systematic study of the Bible as prescribed in the book “Theology for
Every Christian”, covering as many pertinent topics/doctrines as
possible in light of Scripture. In addition, we will also embark on the
Bible study of the book of Ephesians throughout the year 2011 by Brother
Clement Chew. Having been thoroughly blessed through searching the
Scriptures together diligently, our monthly combined Bible study
meetings with Berean BPC will continue to be a regular fixture.
As we dig deep into God’s Holy Scriptures,
may the Lord use His Word to help us live a consecrated and holy life
for our loving Saviour, who loved us, and gave Himself for us, paying
the price of sin we ought to pay only through eternal death, by His
precious priceless blood shed on the cruel cross of Calvary.
Soli DEO Gloria!

A STATEMENT ON THE
PRESERVATION OF THE BIBLE
We believe in the divine, Verbal Plenary Inspiration (Autographs) and
Verbal Plenary Preservation (Apographs) of the Scriptures in the
original languages, their consequent inerrancy and infallibility, and as
the perfect Word of God, the supreme and final authority in faith and
life (2 Tim 3:16, 2 Pet 1:20-21, Ps 12:6-7, Matt 5:18, 24:35).
1. We believe the Hebrew Old Testament and the Greek
New Testament underlying the Authorised (King James) Version to be the
very Word of God, infallible and inerrant.
2. We uphold the Authorised (King James) Version to
be the Word of God—the best, most faithful, most accurate, most
beautiful translation of the Bible in the English language, and do
employ it alone as our primary scriptural text in the public reading,
preaching, and teaching of the English Bible.
3. The senior members of the YPF shall affirm their
allegiance to the Word of God by taking the Dean Burgon Oath at every
anniversary: “I swear in the Name of the Triune God: Father, Son and
Holy Spirit that I believe ‘the Bible is none other than the voice of
Him that sitteth upon the throne. Every book of it, every chapter of it,
every verse of it, every word of it, every syllable of it, every letter
of it, is the direct utterance of the Most High. The Bible is none other
than the Word of God, not some part of it more, some part of it less,
but all alike the utterance of Him that sitteth upon the throne,
faultless, unerring, supreme.’ So, help me God.”
