Celebration of the Father
“Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem. They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened. While they talked and questioned together, Jesus himself came near, and went with them. But their eyes were kept from recognizing him. He said to them, “What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?” One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things which have happened there in these days?” He said to them, “Foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! Didn’t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?” Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself. They said to one another, “Weren’t our hearts burning within us, while he spoke to us along the way, and while he opened the Scriptures to us?” They rose up that very hour, returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them, saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!”” (Luke 24:13-18, 25-27, 32-34 WEB)
Did you ever wonder why out of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus, only one of them was named while the other remained anonymous?
Therefore, I believe that the name “Cleopas” is crucial to understanding the significance of this passage.
Cleopas is an abbreviated form of the name Cleopatros, made of the two Greek words “kleos” (to celebrate) and pater (father). Cleopas means “celebration of the father”.
Let us see what Jesus did in the passage. He told the two discouraged disciples all about the things concerning Himself in the Old Testament Scriptures, and how He fulfilled them all at the cross.
It was a celebration of the Father, praising Him for His glorious plan of salvation that was once hidden and is now revealed through the prophets, apostles, and the other writers of the Scriptures.
When Jesus celebrated the Father with the two disciples, their hearts “burned”, likely with faith, hope, and love in response to the love and grace of God. They experienced an “Emmaus” (meaning: hot springs) in their hearts, washing away the unbelief and refreshing their spirits.
They were no longer depressed and despondent. Instead, they were filled with hope, and energized in their bodies and souls. Having just walked a long way from Jerusalem to Emmaus, they immediately set off on a journey back to announce the good news they had seen and heard.
This world needs “Cleopas”—a celebration of the Father. They need to hear about a Father God who is gracious and full of love, who freely offers salvation through Jesus Christ His Son. They need to hear that He wants to be a Father near to them and not a Judge far off; that He is reconciling the world to Himself through Jesus, welcoming them home.
“But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation; namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation. We are therefore ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” (2 Corinthians 5:18-21 WEB)
Anytime you are feeling down, you can initiate a celebration of the Father. It will cleanse you from unbelief, refresh your spirit, fill your heart with hope, and energize your body and soul!

聖克里斯多福及尼維斯呼籲,應讓台灣參與國際社會
聖克里斯多福及尼維斯總理哈里斯表示,台灣在國際發展策略中持續扮演重要角色,也證明自己是衛生領域的重要合作夥伴,聖國與世界各國都親眼見證台灣卓越的防疫表現,聖國期待看到台灣被納入聯合國體系及其相關會議、機制與活動。
台灣的夥伴價值,值得聯合國重視。

Prime Minister Timothy Harris of #StKittsAndNevis was also among those heads of governments that spoke up for #Taiwan's inclusion in the UN at the #UNGA76 General Debate:
"I cannot address this august body and not recognize our dear friend the Republic of China (Taiwan). St. Kitts and Nevis again renews its call for Taiwan’s inclusion in the international community. We strongly believe Taiwan has an important and continuing role to play in international development strategies given their great successes in many areas. Taiwan has demonstrated that it can be a true partner in health, and we have seen its exemplary response to the pandemic firsthand in St. Kitts and Nevis and other parts of the world.
My country looks forward to Taiwan being included in the UN system and its meetings, mechanisms, and activities."
Taiwan's vision of global partnership can serve as a valuable reference for the UN.

聯合國大會開議第二天,有兩位好朋友在聯合國幫我們說話。
瓜地馬拉總統賈麥岱說:
考量現今所面臨的挑戰,台灣可以為強化多邊主義提供經驗、能力及知識。
#家樂福有賣瓜地馬拉的白蝦
馬紹爾總統柯布亞說:
台灣的民主政府應獲允以平等、有尊嚴的方式參與聯合國體系,聯合國大會第2758號決議絕未禁止包容台灣的作法,也沒有隱含相關意涵,因為決議並沒有闡述對台灣的立場。作為以人民為中心的機構,聯合國不能無視台灣人民,或繼續以國籍作為排除台灣人民參加聯合國公開會議或進入聯合國總部參訪的理由。#可恥的沉默必須終止。
感謝這兩國為台灣發聲,台灣的夥伴價值,值得聯合國重視。

We’d like to thank both President Alejandro Giammattei Falla of #Guatemala and President of the #MarshallIslands David Kabua, who spoke up for #Taiwan on the second day of the #UNGA76 General Debate.
President Giammattei Falla stated, “Taiwan is considered able to provide its experience, capacity and know-how to strengthen multilateralism, taking into account the challenges we currently face.”
While President Kabua gave the following speech:
“The devastating global Covid pandemic demands collective action from all countries, stakeholders and peoples, if we are to achieve a resilient recovery.
The democratic government of Taiwan should be allowed to participate in an equal and dignified manner within the UN system, including the WHO, ICAO and the UNFCCC, as well as activities related to the SDGs.
There is absolutely nothing in General Assembly Resolution 2758 which prevents this inclusive approach, and this resolution affords nothing to hide behind, as it expresses no position on Taiwan. As a people-centric institution, the UN cannot ignore the Taiwanese people or continue to use their nationality to exclude them from attending public meetings or public tours of its headquarters.”
He ended his speech with the powerful words, “The shameful silence must end.”

Go to https://buyraycon.com/xiaomanyc for 15% off your order! Brought to you by Raycon. Today I’m talking with Julien Gaudfroy, who in my opinion has a pretty strong claim to having quite possibly the best Chinese of any foreigner ever. He has been a host on Chinese radio and television for many years now, has acted in Chinese movies, and has also been a performer of Chinese crosstalk comedy xiangsheng which is known for being extremely difficult linguistically. And on a personal level I’ve been jealous of his Chinese for at least a decade now! During this interview we spoke together in Chinese and English about how his Chinese got so good, what was his xiangsheng (Chinese crosstalk) training like, how that impacted his Chinese abilities, his experience in the Chinese media world, Dashan (Mark Roswell), and his training as a classical musician.

「說:「這香膏為甚麼不賣三十兩銀子賙濟窮人呢?」
眾人因聽見耶穌行了這神蹟,就去迎接他。
我實實在在地告訴你們,一粒麥子不落在地裏死了,仍舊是一粒,若是死了,就結出許多子粒來。 愛惜自己生命的,就失喪生命;在這世上恨惡自己生命的,就要保守生命到永生。 若有人服事我,就當跟從我;我在哪裏,服事我的人也要在那裏;若有人服事我,我父必尊重他。」
站在旁邊的眾人聽見,就說:「打雷了。」還有人說:「有天使對他說話。」 耶穌說:「這聲音不是為我,是為你們來的。 現在這世界受審判,這世界的王要被趕出去。 我若從地上被舉起來,就要吸引萬人來歸我。」 耶穌這話原是指着自己將要怎樣死說的。 眾人回答說:「我們聽見律法上有話說,基督是永存的,你怎麼說『人子必須被舉起來』呢?這人子是誰呢?」 耶穌對他們說:「光在你們中間還有不多的時候,應當趁着有光行走,免得黑暗臨到你們;那在黑暗裏行走的,不知道往何處去。 你們應當趁着有光,信從這光,使你們成為光明之子。」 耶穌說了這話,就離開他們隱藏了。」
約翰福音 12:5, 18, 24-26, 29-36 CUNP-神
「“Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages. ”
At first his disciples did not understand all this. Only after Jesus was glorified did they realize that these things had been written about him and that these things had been done to him. Now the crowd that was with him when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to spread the word. Many people, because they had heard that he had performed this sign, went out to meet him. So the Pharisees said to one another, “See, this is getting us nowhere. Look how the whole world has gone after him!”
Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came from heaven, “I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.” The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him. Jesus said, “This voice was for your benefit, not mine. Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out. And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
The crowd spoke up, “We have heard from the Law that the Messiah will remain forever, so how can you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this ‘Son of Man’?” Then Jesus told them, “You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going.」
John 12:5, 16-19, 28-32, 34-35 NIV

A Short Film Under the Filmalogues Series "The Artist", Singapore | #Shorts
"The Artist", Singapore's Hidden Talent
I was walking from Clarke Quay to Chinatown on a Friday night.
I had a few glasses of Guinness that night and was really tipsy.
I was about the approach the tunnel when I started to hear a man busking and singing a rock and roll song.
I wondered who this man would be?
I continued to walk and was mesmerised by his voice. There's a tone that is just wonderful to listen to. It is my first time to have met a busker in Singapore with such a voice.
I wondered, why is he not performing on a stage, I asked myself.
I initially tipped him $10 (as we all should do). But one song was not enough. I spoke to him and asked, " Can you sing more while I film you and I will give you $50?". He replied nicely and said, "Can I pick my own song?".
He started to sing more and more.
As I was there filming, I noticed the crowd started to stop and join him singing.
Some people already knew him and was there to request a song and sing a long.
He had a duet with a woman and sang it beautifully. They covered "Shallow" by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.
This video showed his other side. He took a spin of the song "At My Worst" by Pink $weats. I was totally blown.
That night became so meaningful. I was tired and tipsy, but his passion radiated. I continued my journey to Chinatown to film my documentary. For now, enjoy this music.
With @dan_moshaa
If you are to #visitsingapore (@visit_singapore) any time soon, make sure to drop by at Clarke Quay and enjoy listening and singing along with Dan.
