City Harvest Church (CHC)

I'm not from that church and its profile makes me uncomfortable. Many know about the church but not about its charity activities. http://www.chcsa.org.sg/

why so many people condemn CHC?
IMO, CHC likes to show off its wealth by building extravegant churches, employ many high tech gadjets in its service and so on. That is what put people off.
Even if you have money, you need not spend it like nobody business. If CHC dun want to donate to charity for better causes, it can still keep the money as reserves for next time use.
Want to show off wealth? Which church in this world is the richest? Needless to say, it is the catholic church. But except those at rome, the rest of the churches around the world, and in singapore, the churches are very humble. The services are very humble. WHen the services come, people gather to pray. Not to engage in whatever concerts, bgf and so on...

and please, dun say catholics worship mary. That is a very seerious misconception.

I wonder..is there any symbolic significance in the architecture and design of the CHC church buildings which warrant such great expense? Just compare to the great medieval churches such as Chartres and Westminster Abbey, which were also built at great expense in their time, but incorporated a lot of religious imagery and artistic value. Also, modern religious buildings can also be futuristic in design and yet incorporate religious values. For example, look at the brand new Assyafaah Mosque at Sembawang, which cost $9 million and was an architectural breakthrough in mosque design.

IMHO, if a church, CHC, becomes so rich, something must be very wrong.

Church maintenance also must pay $$.

Should send auditors to check on them. They are so rich. If i'm not wrong, this year Feb TNP reporters went to Rev Kong or Ho Yeow Sun house for a visit (she's in confinement that time, still deciding if she wants to sign on with the US agency). They stay in a penthouse at Orchard area, had a USD$5000 sofa flown from US, had a walk in wardrobe. When Sun Ho is in US, she brings her baby boy with her. Rev Kong will fly over to meet them there and stay for half a week. Sun Ho said in an interview that she spend several hundred thousands on her Ed Hardy shop. In Ed Hardy, a cap will cost more then $100. I wonder how they become so rich, though they're not taking salary from church anymore. Rolling Eyes

Hey.

I really can't stand your message. It's so full of sarcasm.

FYI, I'm an ex-CHC member.

I have nothing but praise for the way they do things over there. Seriously, what's your problem?

Let me just ask you a simple question.

What are the beliefs of a Christian? All Christians believe that men will only go to heaven after accepting Jesus as their Lord and Saviour and repenting of their sins. Right? So what happens to the rest who don't? They don't go to hell don't they? That's according to the bible.

So if a Christian is equipped with this knowledge, don't you think they will want their loved ones to also be able to go to heaven? So what will they do? They will ask their loved ones to come to church. Just remember this. If someone ever asks you to come to church, just know that he/she cares about you.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. When great power falls into the hand of a single man, it will lead to greed.

Rev Kong is an extremely charismatic leader; he knows it and uses it to great advantage. And, perhaps unfortunately, there's no one to keep him in check.

laurence82 SG

U know its sarcasm u still respond to his post?

charlize SG

Eh, why leave the church when you like the way they do things there? Laughing

ad23 SG

Dude. You might want to check chc's website.

Kong majored in Computer Science. Not psychology.

ad23 SG

Cannot stand it ... so must rebuke a bit. Cool

klishcia SG

For those who missed out the article go to, http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/news/story/0,4136,99428,00.html?

Its an interview of Rev Kong and the new building.

charlize SG

Why never major in theology or some religious subject?

Computer Science degree prepares you for a career as a pastor?

Cool. Laughing

ad23 SG

So eh .. if i like the way my company is doing things .. i shouldn't leave my company right? WRONG!

What if another company offers me a higher pay?

Anyway, I left the church aft being there for 6 years. To put it simply, I was really tired.

charlize SG

You mean another church offered you better chances of getting into heaven?

Or are you telling me you get paid to go to church? Laughing

ad23 SG

The church's email is there.

Why don't you email him and ask him that question?

I just pointed out his mistake.

Ehh .. if you're looking to start a debate of some sort, I'd be glad to do it face to face with you. No, I mean seriously, face-to-face, over a cup of coffee. Smile

charlize SG

Meet up over coffee?

No way jose.

You sound like a MLM recruiter. Laughing
