My name is John Tang. If you happened to have haphazardly arrived at this website, you did not haphazardly arrive at this website. God has sovereignly decreed that you would be here. If you are reading and do not know Jesus, you are invited to witness my total weakness and His amazing irresistable grace, though I encourage you to read the Bible for understanding that.

I'll be frank with you. With my best foot forward, on the best day, relying my own strength, the things I do are but filthy rags before a perfectly Holy God. I am saved from destruction solely through the blood of Jesus Christ who is God and who was rejected by the world that was made through Him, was killed by crucifixion for my sins, was raised from the dead, and is living and continually interceding on my behalf. There was nothing in my prideful and rebellious heart that merited salvation which comes through a faith whose author and perfecter is God Himself. "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." - Romans 10:9. What I have received freely is God's riches at Christ's expense. The Bible calls this grace. So, whatever little good you find on this blog I attribute to Him who has prepared good works for me. Here goes nothing...

I hope that you already know of the collective tentmaker blog at thephosfour.blogspot.com. It is designed to give you a better idea of what is generally going on over here and how you can generally pray for us - not for personal prayer requests, concerns, and issues. This blog is precisely for what thephosfour avoids.
