<strong>The</strong> <strong>Burning</strong> <strong>Bush</strong> 16/2 (July 2010)<br />

have all you need in this world! Rev Tow has set an example of godliness<br />

with contentment for all to follow; he left this world with no substantial<br />

earthly goods nor treasures but surely with uncountable treasures in<br />

heaven. Rev Tow has definitely left behind a “legacy” that may not be<br />

repeated in generations to come.<br />

“Do You Believe the <strong>Bible</strong> is Perfect”<br />

Christopher Tan<br />

When I first joined the night classes at FEBC in 2003, I was blessed<br />

to be taught theology by Rev Timothy Tow who taught us Calvin’s<br />

Institutes, Part One.<br />

Rev Timothy Tow lived by what he taught. “Humility, Humility,<br />

Humility”, he would emphasise that over and over again, and also, “He<br />

must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:30).<br />

Rev Timothy Tow lived by every Word of God, and fearlessly<br />

defended the twin doctrines of Verbal Plenary Inspiration (VPI) and<br />

Verbal Plenary Preservation (VPP). Once, I met him at a church camp.<br />

He looked at me in the eye and asked me, “Do you believe the <strong>Bible</strong> is<br />

perfect” I nodded my head sheepishly and said, “Yes.” “Of Course!” he<br />

exclaimed, “God is the Author!”<br />

May we learn to walk in the footsteps of our teacher, Rev Timothy<br />

Tow. Amen.<br />

A Vision for Israel<br />

Vrambout Marc<br />

“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem” (Ps 122:6).<br />

As a Belgian married to a Malaysian, I was led to <strong>Far</strong> <strong>Eastern</strong> <strong>Bible</strong><br />

<strong>College</strong> with my family in 2002. I was delighted to find a conservative<br />

college that had a vision for Israel. I came to understand that Rev<br />

Timothy Tow had organised several trips to Israel. He taught homiletics<br />

and I am still reaping the blessings. In Singapore, God confirmed my<br />

calling to the Jewish people and I am ever grateful to God for FEBC and<br />

its founder, Rev Tow, is a joy to my memory.<br />
