Center Church: Doing Balanced, Gospel-Centered Ministry in Your City
Practical and Gospel-centered thoughts on how to have a fruitful ministry by one of America's leading and most beloved pastors.
Many church leaders are struggling to adapt to a culture that values individuality above loyalty to a group or institution. There have been so many "church growth" and "effective ministry" books in the past few decades that it's hard to know where to start or which ones will provide useful and honest insight.
Based on over twenty years of ministry in New York City, Timothy Keller takes a unique approach that measures a ministry's success neither by numbers nor purely by the faithfulness of its leaders, but on the biblical grounds of fruitfulness.
Center Church outlines a balanced theological vision for ministry organized around three core commitments:
- Gospel-centered: The gospel of grace in Jesus Christ changes everything, from our hearts to our community to the world. It completely reshapes the content, tone, and strategy of all that we do.
- City-centered: With a positive approach toward our culture, we learn to affirm that cities are wonderful, strategic, and under-served places for gospel ministry.
- Movement-centered: Instead of building our own tribe, we seek the prosperity and peace of our community as we are led by the Holy Spirit.
"Between a pastor's doctrinal beliefs and ministry practices should be a well-conceived vision for how to bring the gospel to bear on the particular cultural setting and historical moment. This is something more practical than just doctrine but much more theological than "how-to steps" for carrying out a ministry. Once this vision is in place, it leads church leaders to make good decisions on how to worship, disciple, evangelize, serve, and engage culture in their field of ministry—whether in a city, suburb, or small town." — Tim Keller, Core Church

Letter to Jeffrey Kh00, Quek Suaan Yew and Prabudass:
You should be admonishing and rebuking your brother and
sister, not facilitating false prophets and teachers. But sadly you yourself
have become one of the false prophets and teachers. Teaching false doctrines.
Those who won’t assent to God’s word should resign from God’s Church!
I hope you repent, better still, for you to stand up for the Bible and God’s word, by uniting with brethren in other Bible Presbyterian Churches in Singapore.
You have chosen to submit to your own imagination over the Bible version, you reject NIV, ESV, LEB, ... You’ve chosen the World over the witness. You dishonored God in your approach to these matters. It is not too late to stop this but the choice is yours.
Please remember that most people in the pews share my position, I pray that you may change your doctrine of the Bible. Please accept NIV, ESV, LEB, ...

Cursing the false teachers
I declared a curse upon anyone who preached a message different from the Bible. (Gal 1:8–9).
26.7.22
I wished that those who taught false teachings would burn themselves
I wished that those who taught that Christians must only read the "King James Bible (KJV)" would “burn that KJV together with Textus Receptus (TR) into ashes and drink those ashes with 100% purified water.” I wish those who unsettle you would burn themselves!

I referred to certain opponents as “dogs” (Phil 3:2).
I referred jeffrey kh00, quek suuan yew and prabudass, charles shit... as dogs that returned to their vomits.
Are they saved by God? Why they are behaving like dogs, biting and devouring? Acting like Satan the roaring lion? Are they sheep? No? Most likely, they are dingo dogs, fierce and dangerous without mercy to the little ones.
Harsh Words in this blog
There are harsh words in this blog, beware, because I am so frustrated by some so-called Reformed theologians, teachers of the Gospel, in splitting the church at the end of times with minor issues. I wish they read this blog and may these words pierce their inner hearts.
I referred to certain opponents as “dogs” (Phil 3:2).
I wished that those who taught that Gentiles must be
circumcised would “castrate themselves” (Gal 5:12). I wish those who unsettle
you would emasculate themselves!

different from the Bible. (Gal 1:8–9).
You foolish theologian. (Galatians 3:1)
I am not perfect!
Because God loves justice we hate sin.
Because God loves the truth, we hate lies.

False Teachers and Their Destruction
2 Peter 2:1-22
But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell,[a] putting them in chains of darkness[b] to be held for judgment; 5 if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others; 6 if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; 7 and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless 8 (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— 9 if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment. 10 This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh[c] and despise authority.
Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to heap abuse on celestial beings; 11 yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not heap abuse on such beings when bringing judgment on them from[d] the Lord. 12 But these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish.
13 They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.[e] 14 With eyes full of adultery, they never stop sinning; they seduce the unstable; they are experts in greed—an accursed brood! 15 They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Bezer,[f] who loved the wages of wickedness. 16 But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey—an animal without speech—who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.
17 These people are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them. 18 For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.” 20 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 21 It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them. 22 Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,”[g] and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.”
