Foreword
Dear Reader,
The PGT Editorial Committee is heartened at the warm reception of the re-launch of the PGT. There are many plans still in development, such as the development of a website to host the magazine, and as such the committee continues to welcome all to contribute. For the magazine to establish itself as an institution of our church, our members must be willing to build it up.
Many have also reached out to contribute their articles, and in this edition is only a curated selection. We start off with Pastor Mark giving us a theological overview of the book of Hebrews, as a recap of what we have gone through during morning service for the past few months. Next, we have a polemical exposition of the biblical doctrines of sexuality, providing us with the theological foundation and pastoral wisdom to minister to those who struggle with same-sex attraction. Then, Brother Ezra hopes to encourage us to greater missionary zeal with a biographical sketch of the life of Robert Murray M’Cheyne, who gave his life for the gospel ministry, which all of us – church leaders or not – have been called by Christ to participate in. Thereafter, Brother Manoj gives us a thought-provoking and hopefully laugh-inducing satirical article that uses humour to spur self-examination. We have also republished a devotional by the late Reverend Cheah, and closing off the issue, Brother Asaph provides a review on a book which tackles (post-)modernity through a Christian lens.
May this issue spur you to a greater love for Christ and His church.
