Welcome to Recon Center
The word “RECONCILIATION” means to unite two parties who are estranged. The two parties here are you and God. Jesus said “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)
The root cause of all man’s trouble is our separation from God. God longs to be with you, both now and eternally. Before you can reconcile with him, you need to know what went wrong and how it was fixed.
This site is for you, to help you get your life right with God.
The Lamp and Light Post
We get the word Gospel from Old English “gōd spell ” which means “good news”. The good news is that God sent his only son to reconcile you and me with him. His son, Jesus, dwelt among us, was crucified on the cross for our sins, died and rose again because death could not hold him. He is now alive and will come back.
This sentence raises a lot of questions. What is sin? Why do I need to be reconciled to God? Who is God? Where is he? If Jesus is coming back, do I need to prepare myself to see ghosts and apparitions since he was once dead? Should I be worried about this? Who the hell is Satan?
Through The Lamp and Light Post, I attempt to answer such questions topically from the Bible. The name Lamp and Light Post is is based on Psalm 119:105 – “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path”. Post can mean either an upright wood/metal support for a lamp /light or an established mail system.

B. RELATIONSHIP – NOT FORMULA
We need to realize that God’s life-giving word seldom comes in response to religious forms or formulas. Jesus healed one blind man by mixing dust and spittle, forming mud and applying it to the blind man’s eyes. The blind man was then sent to the pool of Siloam [...]
