1ST KAIROS TAGALOG CLASS
Recent times have found me exploring the aspects of the fundamental entity we call
“information”. Interestingly, information can be stored in matter (such as paper) or
energy (like in radio signals) but is not part of them. You can write information on the
sand in a beach but the sand itself remains unchanged. This is so because
“information” is not physical but mental in origin. Any piece of information originates
from a mind with an intended purpose. Incidentally, because people can receive and
generate information, which is non-material entity, we have to be more than just a
collection of atoms. More specifically, we are embodied minds.
Any piece of information has an intended goal. But that goal will only be realized if
the desired response or action is achieved from the receptor. And the only way for
this to happen is if the meaning of the information has been grasped. Information
plays a crucial role in in our daily lives. From giving simple instructions, to industrial
automation and artificial intelligence, to saving faith.
The importance that information plays in saving faith can be seen in how the 16th
century reformers differentiated its three layers. They are the notitia, assensus, and
fiducia. The assensus describes a person’s intellectual agreement with the facts, and
the fiducia is concerned with the commitment following an intellectual assent. However, the underlying prerequisite for both is receiving the correct information content, or what we refer to as truth. And this aspect belongs to the notitia. Now, language is the vehicle by which we transport information to the intended receiver(s).
The language of a particular people group describes the set of agreed codes and syntax by which any information may be packaged and delivered to a receiver, who must
know how to decode the symbols. Otherwise, the message will be seen as just random symbols.
Language is an essential gift from God. The precise use of language results in order
and progress necessary to the survival of human society. This is the reason why God
chose language, with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, as the vehicle by which His
Word is passed on from generation to generation. It is how we came to understand
His Great Commission towards the making of disciples of all the nations. GCF East,
through the ministry of Missions and Evangelism (M&E), has embraced this mandate.
This is the reason why the M&E holds an annual KAIROS course that systematically
imparts to the participants what God has been doing ever since the Great Fall in
Eden.
This year, however, with our ever increasing desire that course participants obtain a
full grasp of what is taught, we have decided to run this year’s course in our very own
heart language of Filipino – Tagalog, to be precise. Just as the use of MODEM filters
the “noise” in radio waves, we hope that using Tagalog in KAIROS will eliminate any
hindrance in comprehension brought about by language barrier. We will provide the
‘KAIROS Reader’ in Tagalog and we will be showing great videos dubbed in Tagalog
too. We hope that this will appeal to many in our church to take on the challenge of
investing heart, mind, and time to learn more of what it means to participate in God’s
Kingdom program. The course will start on May 28, 2016 and will run for nine Saturdays up until graduation day on July 30, 2016. It will be three hours of interactive and
fun learning for each stsession. We invite you to avail of this opportunity and be part of
this year’s GCF East 1 Kairos Tagalog class. God bless you!!!
