More details on individual DVD.
DVD1 – From Chinese Philosophy to Christian Faith
Since the ancient past, the principles about God’s creation were already discovered by four great philosophers. The Buddha discovered the law of emptiness, Plato discovered the law of mathematics, Lao-Tze discovered the law of Dao and Confucius discovered the law of Heaven.
These were all great philosophical discoveries with regards to the creation of God, but none of them relates to redemption. The Bible tells us that human beings can only be saved through the redemptive power of Jesus Christ.
DVD2 – The Riddle of Destiny
Is Feng Shui just a language game? Is it based only on ill-defined concepts and obscure prediction? Or is it a form of mysterious power of the spiritual world? Through the concept of hexagrams and trigrams, can we really stay away from bad fortune and receive good luck?
