The Burning Bush Vol.. - Far Eastern Bible College

The Burning Bush 8/2 (July 2002)I studied in FEBC from 1974-1978 graduating with a BTh, andam presently pastoring FaithBaptist Church in Hobart,Tasmania, Australia, 1991 to 2001.Finishing here, we will be movingnorth to the mainland, probablyBrisbane, Queensland next year(DV). We are now seeking theLord’s leading for a ministry there.Our son, Joel is 25 years old serving as a medic in the Australianarmy based in Brisbane. He is just about to finish his deployment to EastTimor for 6 months, with the UN peacekeeping force. Our daughter,Talitha, is 22 years old.My studies at FEBC is the most significant and cherished event inmy life and Rev Timothy Tow has my highest esteem and respect for hisfaith and simplicity. May the Lord keep FEBC to the noble principles ofits founder until the Lord returns; not in mere pursuit of scholarship butteaching God’s highest truth to the humblest “prophet” as the Lordenables His chosen ones to obey His high calling.THE BULWARK OF THE B-P CHURCHTan Eng Boo (DipTh ’78, BTh ’92)Pastor, Grace B-P Church, SingaporeI studied in FEBC in 1975-1978. Those were precious years oflearning God’s Word. This college has never failed to impress upon itsstudents the importance of God’s Word. The Bible has always been heldhigh. I have learned to treasure the Bible in my own life as I got to knowthe Word better.College days can be very theoretical and academic. What we havebeen taught must be put into practice. You will be surprised that this canbe done. I was determined to do my devotional time regularly every day,without fail. This is most crucial for my own spiritual life. I know ofstudents who struggle in this area. I know some students do not even dotheir quiet time. I know that my life has been greatly blessed of the Lordbecause I was determined to seek Him first every day.106
