Spate of Murder Cases Shocks Hong Kong

hree grisly murder cases in as many days have sent chills through the city, which has one of

the lowest rates of homicide in the world (last year saw 27 murder investi-gations).

The high-profile stories have people scratching their heads and questioning "What has the world come to?"

The spate of cases started when the dismembered bodies of an elderly couple were found in a Tai Kok Tsui flat. A 29-year-old man and an accom-plice were charged on Friday with the murder of the couple, his parents, over a financial dispute.

Why The Holy Oil?

On several occasions in the Bible, in both Old and New Testament, we see God using the Holy Oil to represent or release His Power upon something or someone. The Olive Tree is said to be one of the most resistant trees in the world, which can survive all conditions. In fact, there are Olive Trees in Israel that are believed to be over 2000 years old!

What is it For?

Mainly, the Holy Oil was chosen by God as an instrument of faith to heal the sick and as a point of contact to overcome darkness with all its evil forces.

Notably, the Lord Jesus Himself instructed His disciples to anoint people with Oil and miracles followed.

“And they cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many who were sick, and healed them.” (Mark 6:13)

Jesus’ disciples anointed the sick and spiritu-ally burdened with the Holy Oil, and they were both healed and made free. The Oil is also a symbol of the Holy Spirit, Consecra-tion, Prosperity and of God’s providence, among other references in the Bible.

Where Does It Come From?

The Holy Oil comes from the Holy Land - Israel.

Once a year, Bishops and Pastors from UCKG HelpCentre make their pilgrimage to

Don’t allow anything or anyone to stop you from receiving God’s Blessing on this day!

(Because of the number of people attending the services, make sure to arrive early so you can find a seat. Each service lasts in average of 90 minutes)

the Holy Land and after praying for God to Bless the Holy Oil with His power and prom-ises, it is distributed in the Church. Those trusting in the Word of God can also benefit from the Power of Faith today!

How Much Does It Cost?

There is absolutely no cost or any fee to be paid. The Holy Oil is distributed free of charge to those attending one of the Prayer Meetings throughout the whole week of May 18-26.

Learn how to use it to anoint the sick, the emotionally distressed, your loved ones and family, your workplace and objects that represent difficulties or challenges in your life.

Please note: Due to the limited quantity, we strongly advise you to call, SMS, email ahead to confirm your attendance and reserve your bottle – strictly one bottle per person only.

What Now?

Make a decision that you will attend one of the Strong Services (see weekly schedule on PG10) and bring with you the problems that are disturbing your house, family, finances, health, relationship, marriage, work and other areas of your life. During the service, Pastors will be praying against your problems and after the service there will be counseling available for people that need more than prayer – guidance and advise.

was scared I was going to die at an early age because I had severe difficulty with breathing

every time I had an asthma attack. I was taking mainte-nance medication and was required to have monthly check ups. I ventured far to consult a famous so-called “doctor” but no matter who I turned to or where I went there was no cure for my sickness.

When I decided to work abroad and needed to have a medical examination, I lied to the doctor and my employer saying I did not have asthma. I would hide in the restroom of my employer’s house for refuge to use my inhaler to relieve my breathing difficulty. As my children grew up, I noticed that my 3 daughters, granddaughter and daughter-in-law also suffered from asthma and thought it must have been hereditary. Every one of us was dependent on medication, we

were tired of our situation as it consumed our monthly earnings I came to know of the UCKG HelpCentre through an invitation of a friend. It was here where I finally understood that a genera-tional curse was attacking my family. I learned how to use my faith and persevere in making a Chain of Prayer, I fasted and challenged my faith. I also taught my family how to use Holy Oil and kept on praying for them to experience the power of the Name of Jesus. I never gave up rather I put on shame the curse. I continued trusting in God and being faithful returning my Tithes as He promised to give my family and I protection. The healing process was not overnight but today the genera-tional curse of asthma has been broken in my family. I am totally healed and have passed this blessing onto my family. We are

all healthy and have peace inside and most importantly we acknowledge His miracle. It’s just great knowing that I have God looking out for my family. You have nothing to lose if you just believe!

was born with a fatal blood disorder that doctors could not treat. It was predicted

that I wouldn’t live beyond my teenage years. My desperate grandparents brought me to London to find a cure. Whilst here, I fell into a coma. It was then that my grandmother received an invitation to attend healing sessions with the anointing of Holy Oil at the UCKG HelpCentre on my behalf.

To my doctor’s amazement, I recovered from the coma and

after some tests was free to go home. I continued to receive healing prayers and experienced further changes in my energy levels. Now I am in my early thirties and my doctor has confirmed that I have made huge progress with my health – progress that came through the power of faith.

Escaping death at a young age made me realize how precious life really is. Don’t waste your life because of sickness. Healing prayers can truly help.

hey walk happily down the street. The loving look they give one another is enough to make any heart melt. They sound right together, they

look good together, but something about this couple is very wrong. He is Rosangela Gozi’s husband and she is another man’s wife and her friend.

“I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw them. As a woman you just know when something is not quite right. I went up to him and asked him straight, ‘What is going on with you and her?’ Nothing, he said with a butter wouldn’t melt look. Of course I didn’t buy it, so I gave him an ultimatum. I told him that either he told me the truth or I’d go and ask my so called friend’s husband.

Within minutes, he told me that he wanted a divorce. Just like that - 4 years of marriage down the drain - I felt so sad and hurt. After the divorce, I was afraid of committing myself to anyone. What was the guaran-tee that it would work or that I wouldn’t get hurt again? Over time, I realised that I didn’t love my ex-husband and a weird sense of freedom came over me. I travelled and tried new things, I became a new woman but I felt an aching loneliness deep within. It wasn’t the type that goes away when you are in a loving relationship - it was deeper than that. I had friends around me, family, I even got into short-term relationships, but the void was always there.

When I started attending the UCKG HelpCentre, I saw many people achieving great things through their faith. They took part in different faith boosting events and purposes, and amongst these was the use of the Holy Oil of Israel. Some people used the oil for their health or family and other areas; I used the oil to rid myself of the emptiness I felt inside. If the oil was like an SOS signal to God, then I wanted Him to spot me and come to my rescue. I anointed myself every day asking God to fill the empty space in me. I believe that with each drop that I placed on my head, I was getting closer to God. The messages I heard during the meetings at the UCKG tore through the many doubts I had and washed away the idea that I didn’t deserve to know God personally or that my past mistakes made me unworthy in some way. I remember one special day when I really let go of everything I had inside. And as I did this, an over-whelming peace came over me. It was the absolute assurance that I wasn’t alone. It might sound strange to some people but since then, I’ve faced many different situations and obstacles, but I’ve never given up. The same surety that tells me I am alone also tells me that I can make it.”

My New DesireBy: Rosangeli Gozi

ost marriages suffer nowa-days, because of mainly two reasons, apart from infidel-

ity; financial and communication problems. I have been blessed with a good husband; who is self-employed and specializes in all-round carpentry, electrician and welding work. He has never depended on me financially. We are debt free and own a fully furnished house; besides that my husband lives an addiction free life. So money was clearly not an issue

However, after we got married I realized we had major communica-tion problems and knew this would become a stumbling block in our marriage. I would do all the talking (like most women do) and my husband would do all the listening. He would always agree with me, but I quickly noticed without truly mean-ing it. I would push him to do some-thing and he’d follow without com-plaining. I was making my husband a robot and this was not something I wanted; all I desired was for my husband to lead as the man of the house.

At UCKG I learned to use my head and change for the better. I joined the marriage course; I also anointed my husband’s picture with Holy Oil and started praying for him. Since then, my husband has improved his communication skills, has learned to take initiative and this has blessed our marriage greatly. I used to switch off and not talk to him for days when we had an argument, but today I have developed a sincere patience to listen and to counsel my husband. We both have peace now in our marriage.

eople spend years investing in their

marriage. Time, money, emotions, sweat, and tears have gone into making their relationship work. When there’s spanner in the works, it’s easier to feel like walking away, but is it worth letting all that work go to waste?

served the “death saint” (Santa Muerte) for 10 years. I thought that it would protect me from evil, and

bring me money and a happy family. I was so devoted to this death saint, that I got 6 tattoos of its image all over me. There were plenty of times my family would have nothing to eat, but the statue I had of the death saint always had its offerings placed before it. Even though I would earn money, it would disappear before my eyes. We lived in poverty. I became addicted to cocaine and alcohol and I drank day and night for those 10 years. There were constant arguments in my family and division. My sons couldn’t get along, they’d fight and argue constantly. I hit rock bottom when I gave up on life, stopped caring for myself and beganto live like a bum on the streets.

My life was pure destruction. I knew I needed help, so I sought out a witch-doctor, but he told me that the nega-tive forces in me were too strong for him to help me. Thank God my wife didn’t give up on me, and she brought

heard them every single day. They never stopped talking, asking questions, giving opinions, shout-

ing, murmuring… I didn’t want to hear them. I didn’t want them there. But they never went away. Day in, day out they were there, whispering in my ear, speaking in my mind. The voices in my head became my living hell.

From as young as nineteen, I could hear random voices in my head that I couldn’t control. My family was deeply concerned when I told them. My mum contacted a mental health hospital where the psychiatrist confirmed that I was schizophrenic. I was put on heavy doses of medica-tion and later on a mental health

programme where I was required to attend regular appointments to see a psychiatrist at a mental health centre.

The voices continued, and the louder and more frequent they got, the more desperate I felt to shut them up. I started drinking and smoking heavily to drown those voices but they were too strong. I saw no future at all. I stopped study-ing and couldn’t work anymore either.

When the City News came through my letterbox, it was like a light at the end of a dark tunnel. I read about the services at the UCKG and decided to give it a go. I started attending the

deliverance meeting on Fridays and received the anointing with the Holy Oil on Tuesdays for my health. After each anointing I felt as though I received strength to keep fighting to get my mental health back. I left the meetings empowered as though a huge weight had been lifted from my mind. I continued going to the mental health centre regularly and believe that coupling this profes-sional treatment with spiritual support got me where I am today - free and totally in control of my own thoughts.

Today, I am doing very well for myself. Since getting the all clear, I was able to work - I work full-time - I was able to study and get my life back! There’s only one voice in my head, and it’s MINE!

me to the church. I joined the Deliver-ance meeting, anoint myself with Holy Oil and my life began to change. I got rid of the death saint, and turned to God instead - a Greater Power by far. Today I am completely free from drugs and alcohol and my marriage and family are restored. I live in peace at home and I’m moving forward in my business. Today I am happy.

可以輕鬆地跑,沒有障礙,我最近去做身體檢查,醫生甚麼都沒發現。

Na-diagnosed ako na may breast cysts. Agad akong nagpa-opera para matanggal ang cyst pero pagkatapos ng surgery, mas natakot ako dahil may lumitaw na mas malaking cyst sa braso ko.

Sa tulong ng pagpapahid ng Holy Oil at patuloy na panal-angin sa UCKG, gumaling ako. Ngayon, malaya na ako sa kahit anong sakit. Nagpamedical ako kailan lang at wala kahit ano’ng cysts ang nakita ng doctor.

Diagnosed with breast cysts, I had it operated to stop it’s recurrence in my body but even so after the surgery, I was terrified for a larger cyst had appeared in one of my breasts.

With the drop of oil, daily anointing and constant prayer at UCKG, I was HEALED. Today, I am FREE to run with no hindrances, I went for a medical check-up recently and the doctor didn’t find anything.

In 2005, I was diagnosed and proven to have breast cancer stage 1. At that time I remember asking the doctor, “How long do I have to live?”In 2007, I came to Hong Kong with the help of my mother, but I had to fake my medical examination to get a job.Nobody knew I had cancer!At UCKG I heard about people’s success stories on healing and after I began attending the faith meetings I started feeling better physically and emotionally. I was helped through prayer, counseling and anointing with Holy Oil.

For you to have an idea, I was spending thousands on medication and oral chemo-therapy. I was stuck in a vicious cycle, where I would receive my salary and by the end of the day my wallet was empty because of the expensive medication.

After 8 months my hair began to grow beautifully, the black spots on my skin had vanished and my pale complexion turned natural.

I knew it was a miracle. God had healed me. In 2010, this was confirmed when I had a medical check-up to comply with

requirements for my new employment and the report was marve-lous, the doctor issued, 'Fit To Work'.

I was jumping for joy!

atima Marques grew up in the midst of a warzone. The scars and traumas that took

years to heal did not however, come from dropping bombs or bullets; they came from the hurtful words that her father hurled at her mother day in, day out.

The war of words that made her home a battle-field was something she vowed never to let her own kids go through; she remembered the simple action her mother took that helped bring about a big difference and decided to do the same for her husband and children.

“A drop of oil, as simple as it may seem, in my opinion could make a huge difference when faith is involved,” she says. “I grew up seeing my parents exchanging hateful words and it hurt so much. Afterwards, my mum would sink into a depressive state while my dad drank his sorrows away. My dad’s outbursts weren’t only directed at my mum. I got it too!

The Sober Dad vs The Drunken Dad

A drop of oil, as simple as it may seem, in my opinion could make a huge difference when faith is involved.

1986, Wu Tak Chi was still in school where he met his wife to be, now Aida Wu. After 3 years of dating with the consent of their parents they were married and the rest is history! If only it really were that simple…

3 years into the marriage they had their first daughter Jessica and then two years after their second daughter, Bianca, was conceived. 7 months into the second pregnancy his wife

began to suffer from constant fainting but thankfully Bianca was born healthy. All

the while he remained a heavy smoker; just one of his many vices at the time.

With their daughters only two years old and four months old respectively, Mr. Wu could no longer deceive his wife and so it all came out, he had been having an affair with another woman. With this revelation

their life together started on a downward spiral.

Depressed his wife was constantly in tears, she would hardly eat and

lost 9 pounds in just 2 months. Time and time again their daughters witnessed them fighting both physically and verbally. He always had a bag packed ready for him to leave their house. Keeping grudges in her heart his wife could not find it in her to forgive him, instead she decided to pay him back for what he did. She wanted revenge and got involved with another man. In short their situation was total hell.

Despite all this they never separated, but as you can imagine they were both extremely unhappy. They did not trust each other and so there was no more respect or love between them and consequently they grew to hate each other.

After so much suffering however Mr. Wu’s wife couldn’t take it any more and she knocked on many doors, seeking help in many places but nothing changed. That is until her mother invited her to the UCKG. She started attending more and more until through her example he too started attending. As they went together so the process of deliverance and transformation started.

Today his wife is now healed and Mr. Wu has abandoned all his addictions. They have found a way to forgive each other and trust has now taken the place of betrayal in their relationship. Happy and fulfilled in every way, with both their daughters they are now a united family in the presence of God.

chronic liver disease) or because of his drinking. It is as though there were two sides to him - the sober dad and the drunken dad, and the drunken dad was a man I didn’t want to be around.

It’s hard to believe he used to be like that when I look at him today. My dad is so loving towards my mother, my family and me… I absolutely love him! My husband and children simply love spending time with my parents and we couldn’t be happier. But getting to this point wasn’t easy.

I remember my mum making a Chain of Prayer praying for God to reach the part of him that up until then she was unable to reach. She also used the Holy Oil to anoint his clothes and anything that would come into contact with him. After some time, he really began to change. He stopped drinking; he was more caring and attentive. My mum changed too! When I started my own family, I too prayed and anointed my husband and children with the Holy Oil, asking God for the same unity and joy that my parents now have.

benefited from the financial seminars and got a lot of helpful tips and advise.

In a short time I learned how to master my emotions and use intelligence + faith. I also prayed and fasted to remove all delay and blockage, used the Holy Oil to anoint necessary documents and did what I had to do so God would have no choice but to do His part too.

I was depressed think-ing that we would never be able to start our business, so much so that I sometimes wished I wouldn’t wake from my sleep.

Countless sleepless nights, numerous conversations sharing my troubles with friends and many different churches later I felt as if I was running around in a circle, my life had no meaning and I was not going anywhere.

Then one time I received a text message from Smartone about a UCKG HelpCentre event and I thought I’d give it a try and see if it would make a difference in my life.

After attending the event I was eager to go back to the HelpCentre and learn more. I

Taong 2005, nasuri ako na may kanser sa suso na nasa unang yugto; natatandaan ko noon tinanong ko ang doktor "Gaano katagal na lng ang buhay ko?" Noong 2007, nakapunta ako sa Hong Kong sa tulong ng aking ina ngunit kinailangan kong peke-in ang aking pagsusuring medikal para makapasa sa trabaho.

Walang nakakaalam na ako ay may kanser.

Sa UCKG narinig ko ang mga patotoo ng mga taong gumaling sa kanilang karamda-man kaya napagpasyahan ko ring pumunta. At simula noon, unti-unting gumaan ang aking pakiramdam. Natulungan ako sa pamamagitan ng panalangin, pagpapayo at pagpapahid ng Banal na Langis.

Ang totoo nyan, malaking pera na ang aking nagastos para sa aking mga gamot at oral chemotherapy. Paulit-ulit lamang ang nangya-yari kada buwan. Makasahod man ako, wala rin akong naitatabi dahil halos nauubos lang din ito sa mamahaling mga gamot.

Makaraan ang walong buwan, lumago ang aking buhok at nahanaw ang mga itim na marka sa aking balat. Naging natural rin ang kulay ng kutis ko na dating namumutla. Alam kong isa itong milagro! Ang Pangi-noong Diyos ang nagpagaling sa akin.

Noong 2010, napatunayan ko ito nang kinailangan kong magpasuring medikal para sa aking bagong trabaho at ang resulta, "Kwalipikado".

Di ko mapigilang mapalundag sa sobrang tuwa!

2005年,我被診斷患有初期乳癌。記得當時我問過醫生,我還可以活多久?

2007年,我母親幫我申請來香港,為了尋找工作,我不得不偽造我的醫療報告。

沒人知道我患有癌症!

我聽人們說過在普世教會裹被成功醫治的事情,於是我開始參加聚會,身體和情緒並開始感覺好些。祈禱,輔導和塗抹聖油幫了我很多。

試想想,我以前花數以千計的金錢在藥物和口服化療上。我被困在一個惡性循環中,我每月收到的工資都花光於昂貴的藥物上。

8個月之後,我的頭髮開始生得很漂亮,我皮膚上的黑點已經消失,蒼白的膚色變得自然。我知道這是一個奇蹟。神已醫治了我。

2010年,當我再做就業醫療檢查時,難以想像的是,醫生發出的報告是: '適合上班'。

我高興得跳起來!

ada tahun 2005, pemeriksaan medis menyatakan dan membuktikan bahwa

aku mengidap kanker stadium satu. Masih teringat dalam ingatan kala itu aku bertanya pada dokter, “Berapa lama lagikah aku bisa hidup?”.Tahun 2007, dengan bantuan ibu, aku datang ke Hong Kong, tapi dengan cara memalsukan hasil medikal demi mendapatkan pekerjaan. Tak seorangpun tahu kalau aku mengidap kanker!

Di UCKG aku banyak mendengar cerita tentang bagaimana orang lain telah sukses disembuhkan dan ketika aku mulai menghadiri pelayanan aku merasa kondisiku semakin membaik, dari segi fisik maupun emosional. Aku menerima bantuan doa, konseling, dan pengurapan dengan 'Minyak Kudus'.

Agar kalian mempunyai gambaran, telah kuhabiskan uang ribuan dollar untuk pengob-atan termasuk kemoterapi oral. Aku terjebak dalam lingkaran yang tak berujung pangkal, yang mana aku akan menerima gaji namun di penghujung hari dompetku kembali kosong karena mahalnya biaya pengobatan.

Setelah 8 bulan berlalu rambutku mulai tumbuh dengan indahnya, bercak hitam di kulit lenyap dan mukaku berubah dari pucat menjadi alami. Aku tahu itu adalah mukjizat. Tuhan telah menyembuhkanku.

Pada tahun 2010, ketika aku harus medikal untuk memenuhi persyaratan kerja baru, lapo-rannya begitu mengagukan, dokter mengelu-arkan pernyataan, “Sehat Untuk Bekerja”. Aku melompat-lompat kegirangan!

On Sunday (March 3, 2013), a 47-year-old woman appar-ently jumped to her death from a Kowloon West luxury apartment after she allegedly killed and attempted to behead her partner, police say.

The deaths have sparked widespread social media debate on topics including Hong Kong's social disloca-tion, inequality, poverty, poor parenting and internet addic-tion. Some pointed to moral decay and a society-wide obsession with wealth. Others also cautioned not to turn the situation into a moral panic.

According to a poll, a majority of readers believed the recent spate of murder cases within

Spate of Murder... What Has the World Come To?

few months of her attending. I would only come once or twice a month, but later on I became a regular member.”

However, Ron became frustrated. “I was learning so much at the HelpCen-tre, but I felt as if I couldn’t put anything into practice. I wanted to change, but I also wanted to carry on living my life. I was misbehaving in school, chatting up with girls and bullying others. I had many friends, each a part of their own clique, but I was influenced by all of their personal habits. ”

Ron was like this for a while, before there came a time when he’d had enough.

“I was undecided about who I wanted to be, and I was wasting time. I completely failed my exams and was having argu-ments with my family. I was pretending to be someone I wasn’t. I was fooling myself, but deep down I knew who I was.”

At the HelpCentre, an opportunity came for Ron to finally make the decision he needed to.

“I did what I had to do. I learnt how to implement the change that I needed. I

received help on how to discover the real me, I anointed myself with Holy Oil and as I did this I slowly began to notice the transformation of my character. It became less of a struggle and more of a natural thing. I know it sounds unbeliev-ably cheesy, but I’m so happy to have gotten to a place where I can say that I’m confident with who I am. It’s good to say that I’m comfortable in my own skin. I may not be a millionaire (yet) or have been healed from an incurable disease, but personally I’m just happy that I can say I’ve found myself - the real me - and that’s amazing.

It’s what I’ve always wanted. As a result of this inner change, I’ll be opening my own tailoring business this year, along with a smoothie company I’m working on. I’m on top of my education at college, and my family is at peace and united.”

Do you know your husband’s hot buttons? What makes him snap and lash back at you in hot anger? Many a marriage has been severely damaged by words that should’ve never been spoken.

Of course it cuts both ways – husbands must also beware of what they say to their wives. But I will have to leave that for another article. So here we go. Most men will either spout steam, blow a fuse, or close up in bitterness for days – not necessarily in that order – upon hearing their wife say something about these ‘no-go’ areas:

1. Never doubt his ability – “You never do anything right!”2. Never compare him to other men – “I wish you were like your cousin Mark.” 3. Never tell him o� in front of others – “At least I’m not like you.”4. Never say you want a divorce – unless you really mean it.5. Never badmouth his relatives – especially his mother.

You’ve been warned.

“So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.” (St Paul’s letter to the Ephesians 5.33)

They get together then breakup – its normal! It’s so common that the rational is, ‘its just part of celebrity culture’ …seri-ously?! Come on, who honestly wishes that for themselves? Putting aside those who carry a lot of scars and traumas (and even then) deep down, most people want to be happy in love forever. So how is it that with the world at their feet, the world’s rich and famous just can’t they keep it together?

They might be rich, famous and beautiful but it seems – at least according to the Australian Women’s Weekly – celebs like Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet rank top amongst the most unlucky in love.
