After a long and patient wait, the celebration came at last. The 14th April 2012 is a very special day for CKRM. The Lord has set apart this day for us to celebrate CKRM 5th Anniversary. Thanks and praise the Lord!
The ceremony began at 12.40pm with the opening by Rev Oh Beng Khee saying grace for the food. The Lord did not only bless us adults’ food but also prepared tasty Popeyes fast food for our children. We would like to convey our appreciation of thanks to Brother George Ang for his contribution of the 'Popeyes' kids' meal. (George is Ps Paul's son and is the franchisee boss for 'Popeyes' in Singapore & Malaysia).
After filling our stomachs, the ceremony began with praise and worship to our Lord Jesus, followed by Ps Paul and Ps Esther sharing about the mission of CKRM. Then they led the whole congregation to stand together and declared the Statement of Faith for CKRM.
As stated in the sixth point of the Statement of Faith, it is said that “we believed in the Fire Baptism.” Ps Paul/Esther further elaborated the following:-
Every ministry or everyone has a calling in the Body of Christ where each part of the Body serving differently ( 1 Corinthians12:12-30)
Jesus came as a sacrificial Lamb to save the world and HE even became obedient to the point of death -even dying on the Cross (Philippians 2:8).
Moses’ calling was to perform all the wonders as a demonstration in order to convince the Pharaoh that God had called him to set his people free and to lead them out of Egypt (Exodus 4:21). However, CKRM’s calling is to preach the Fire Baptism to the believers.
At the CKRM Singapore Saturday Meeting on 31stMarch 2012, Bishop Joseph Akintunde shared that about 60% to70% of Christians had been baptized with the Holy Spirit BUT only less than 10% of the believers had ever been baptized with Fire.
When John the Baptist introduced the ministry of Jesus, he specially mentioned that Jesus would baptize us with Holy Spirit and Fire as stated in (Matthew 3:11, Luke 3:16.)
We believed every believer would be a different person once he/she is baptized with the Fire of God.
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit begins with speaking in tongues, which is also the manifestation of the Holy Spirit inside a person. Baptism in Spirit shows that a person belongs to God and he/she can know God better and have fellowship with Him.
Fire baptism is for ministry and furthermore a person needs to be sanctified by the Fire of God which will eventually heal those who are under the bondage and control by Satan.
Fire Baptism is the Fire of God which comes down from Heaven. Our God is a consuming fire and when the Spirit of God comes upon us powerfully it will manifest the characteristic of fire which is hot and this is needed to destroy the works of Satan.
We believe that all God’s people love God but as the saying goes “the Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.” The fire will not to kill God’s people but to break the bondages that the devil puts in the people’s heart. Fire will burn away all ungodly thoughts, fears, troubles, disappointments, attraction to the world and unbelief (Soul).
The Fire is to enable God’s people to remove everything that hinders them so that sins do not easily entangle them but allow them to run with perseverance the race which is marked out for them by God.
Like the Dedication of the Temple in 2 Chronicles 7:1, "When Solomon finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the temple."
Our body is the temple of God. Let the fire of God consumes the burnt offering in our body so that we can offer our body as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God as in Romans 12:1. Then His glory will fill the temple. (The Holy Spirit lives in all believers but the glory which is His manifested presence rests on very few).
Therefore, about 90% of Christians have never encountered Fire Baptism so they cannot understand why the manner people react or manifest when the Fire of God touches them. When fire burns, there will be noises because of the reaction of materials made by Fire. Noise is part of the Fire in the burning process. Take for example in the natural, just put your hand to touch a burning hot iron and see whether you can remain silent.
It is the similar case when the spiritual Fire of God burns us; it tends to produce “noises” in the process of empowering our inner beings. When more and more ungodly things are burned away, this will lead us to a deeper repentant stage. It is always the case that people will have the desire of worldly things. It is only when those who have the ability to let go of the things of the world, will then they desire to know God in an intimate manner. To become God chasers as Paul said, “consider everything is loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things, I consider them rubbish that I may gain Christ.” God is raising HIS end time army to usher His near return.
Rev Liu shared that she was opposed by the Christian community when she began to preach the Baptism of Holy Spirit many years ago. By God’s grace as time goes by, most of the churches are able to accept this teaching now. Then she led the congregation to declare: The Kingdom of the World has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ and He will reign forever and ever (Revelation 11:15), followed by Dr Rev Francis praying for the Holy Communion and lastly, Rev Koo Tiong Ling said a closing prayer –he prayed “CKRM is not an ordinary church but it is a church led by the Holy Spirit. God would give Ps Paul and Ps Esther and the leaders more revelation to run the church and complete the race.”
The 1st session of the cerebration ended, followed by the 2nd session with a time of ministering to the congregation and testimonies from Malacca, Petaling Jaya, Banting/Klang and Singapore. The auspicious occasion ended at about 5.00 pm.

欢庆基督国度崇高掌权五周年记念
等了好长的一段时间,盼了又盼,等了又等,终于等到了,2012年4月14日是一个很特别的日子,主就定在这一天来欢庆基督国度崇高掌权,五周年记念。感谢主!
典礼在12.40开始,首先由胡民气牧师为食物献上感恩祷告,感谢神不只供给我们大人的食物,也为小孩子特别预备美味可口的“Popeye炸鸡”,谢谢George 的奉献。
填饱了肚子,仪式以敬拜讚美高举我们的救主耶稣基督掀开序幕。接着是创办人,保罗牧师和以斯帖牧师简单分享神对基督国度崇高掌权的呼召后与全体圣徒同心合一宣读信仰宣言。
因在信仰宣言第六点提到圣火的洗,所以保罗牧师和以斯帖牧师简单分享了以下的内容:-
我们都是一个身子,神随自己的意思把肢体俱安排在身子上,各肢体有他不同的供用,代表神对我们每个人有不同的呼召。
主耶稣降世为人最大的目的是做全人类的代罪羔羊,死在十字架上。
摩西的呼召是在法老面前行神迹,以带领以色列百姓出埃及。
基督国度崇高掌权的呼召是传讲圣火的施洗!
会督Joseph Akintunde曾分享道:-“全世界有60-70%的圣徒已经领受圣灵的洗,但却只有少过10%的圣徒领受圣火的洗。”
施洗约翰在介绍耶稣的事工时,特别提到耶稣是用圣灵与火为我们施洗:-
马太福音3:11
我是用水给你们施洗,叫你们悔改。但那在我以后来的,能力比我更大,我就是给他提鞋,也不配。他要用圣灵与火给你们施洗。
路加福音3:16
约翰说,我是用水给你们施洗,但有一位能力比我更大的要来,我就是给他解鞋带也不配。他要用圣灵与火给你们施洗。
撒迦利亚13:9
我要使这三分之一经火,熬炼他们,如熬炼银子,试炼他们,如试炼金子。他们必求告我的名,我必应允他们。我要说,这是我的子民。他们也要说,耶和华是我们的神。
圣徒经历圣火的施洗后就不一样了,圣灵的洗---说出方言是圣灵内住的外在彰显。圣灵的洗使你属於神,与圣灵有分,能更认识神,并与神交通。
圣火的洗是为服事,自己先蒙洁净,然后用圣灵的火释放医治那些被魔鬼捆绑压制的人。圣火的洗是神的火降临。神是烈火,当神的灵大有能力临到我们时,会彰显火的本质,又热又烫,专对付撒但魔鬼的作为。火不是要对付,杀死神的百姓,乃是要打破恶者留在人心的捆绑,人心对世界的吸引,火烧尽恶者留在神百姓心思意念(魂)--贪爱世界的一切,错误的思想观念,疲乏灰心,软弱不信等等。
火也烧尽恶者留在神百姓身体上的污秽杂质,恢复建康的身体(圣灵的殿)。这样的过程会带出不同的反应,看各人而异。就有如在自然界你把自己放在一块火烧的铁板,会有反应的。
可以肯定的是经历火炼尽的人,会带动生命的改变,人心会转向神,人会自动为自己的软弱,爱世界的事悔改,人心会柔软,为自己无法过得胜的生活而悔改,会自己责备自己。
更多的烧尽,带出更多的悔改,徹底的悔改,将带动圣灵更大的动工浇灌,心门被打开看见神的作为---神迹奇事的发生,人会自动离弃平时以为享乐的事,渴慕遇见神,就有能力愿意放弃自己,顺服主,背起自己的十字架跟从主,看世界万事为粪土。以服事主为最宝贵。
就能让神在地上兴起祂末日的精兵,为耶稣的回来预备道路!
接着,刘再芳牧师分享了她当年在传讲圣灵的洗时,面对基督教圈子很大的阻挡。但感谢神的恩典,圣灵的洗终在多年后被广大的基督教群体所接受。刘再芳牧师接着带领众圣徒一起宣告“这世上的国成了我主和主基督的国,基督耶稣要做王直到永永远远!”。紧跟着是魏义发牧师带领大家守圣餐,纪念主的再来。最后高传隆院长为基督国度崇高掌权祝福祷告。--他说:基督国度崇高掌权不是普通的一般的教会,这是一个被圣灵带领的教会,愿神自己赐下更多的启示给保罗和以斯帖牧师,还有领袖们。愿神自己带领他们完成这工程。。。。。。。。。
第一阶段的庆祝仪式就在声声的祝福中告一段落。
接着是见证服事的时间,从马六甲,巴生,万津,八打灵再也,新加坡等代表见证神的信实,恩典,慈爱。。。。一直到近五点才结束。
