How i use technology to search out Truth...

-kjvmp3 while driving (whole bible is 90hrs only. takes about half a year of driving.) -GreatControversy mp3 while resting -watching HopeChannel International while ironing clothes, waiting for laundry. learning many things from GC.

-watching 3abn / HopeChannel Luzon while eating. tagalog messages. -watching HCBN while waiting for turn to use kitchen. relaxing music, adventist messages. -kjvmp3 while riding bus, instead of focusing on the worldly entertainment in the bus tv.

How i use technology to search out Truth...

-google to search any idea from bible.cc -google to search egwwritings.org -google to search adventist.org, adventistbiblicalresearch.org -bible in android/iphone to search what the bible says about a term/idea in english/tagalog/greek/hebrew

How i use technology to search out Truth...

Watching ministryinmotion.tv Downloading sermons from audioverse.org, listening at 1.4x speed with windows media player. Less boring,faster sermons,more sermons per day/night.

How i use technology to share the Truth...

-bible verses in webpages/forms. if advertisers can put their questionalble stuff in, why can't we advertise something more important. Egw says...

How i use technology to share the Truth...

"let every advertising agency be employed that will call attention to the work. This should not be regarded as nonessential. On every street corner you may see placards and notices calling attention to various things that are going on, some of them of the most objectionable character; and shall those who have the light of life be satisfied with feeble efforts to call the attention of the masses to the truth?" Ev 131

How i use technology to share the Truth...

-facebook status, notes, messages (influence of 40, so everyone has to use their fbs evangelistically) -email signature -YM status/link -plus.google.com status

How i use technology to share the Truth...

-youtube sermons of my friends. BTW, if you know adventist preachers who want to preach on camera, in any language, we want to help populate youtube with adventist evangelistic messages so when the countries get fast internet our messages will be already there in many languages.

How i use technology to share the Truth...

-dvds (costs lots of money linearly) -video (costs lots and lots and lots of money but cost is mostly initial). there are plenty of adventist video studios, but most of the time they are IDLE, lack of volunteers, lack of preachers. -vehicle stickers (bible verses). [lowtech]

How i use technology to share the Truth...

-tree posters along highway (posters disappear, nice verses like "God is love" disappear in a week. the rest about 2 months average). -tree posters incampus (lasts years) -NEW experimental: wifi advertising, portal, cheap media server -NEW imagination: wifi tv (because there are more wifi tablets/phones/laptops than there are TVs)

needs:
-need music education SOP style, specially for video editors, neither rock nor opera but what SOP says "subdued", "like singing of birds", "softens the heart"... -need education about copyrights -need to establish ourselves in the fundamental beliefs -need to be the friend of God and do His work as His servant

needs:
-need to continue reading Bible & SOP, otherwise we are confused and confusing others with our own opinions -need to live like Acts time (bible study, prayer, fasting, self-sacrificing service) -we all need to exercise our faith in doing/helping evangelism! -need to do God's work according to His instructions in the Bible & SOP!
