Dealing In The New Covenant

  For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another.  Hebrews 8:7, NIV We only emphasize that Christian life we are in is not based on another form of religious ritual but on a covenant. The question is what type of covenant are you in? Is it a covenant of religion or a covenant of love? It should be a covenant of love. Love is a person and that is God (see 1 John 4:16). The covenant we are in is a covenant based on who He is and not on who we are. It's based on what He has done and not on what we have done.  When you sign an agreement form, you understand what type of covenant or agreement you are signing in. And this is the reason why still many Christians missed the true essence of Christianity. It's because they don't understand the covenant they are in.

More OFWs upbeat about investing in PH properties



According to a poll, Manila, Cavite, and Laguna are the top 3 preferred locations of Filipino expats in the UAE

Property has remained the top investment choice for Filipinos in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf, encouraged by the continued capital gains that the market has achieved year-on-year.

This is illustrated in a survey of 10,000 Filipino expats, which showed that up to 80% of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in the region are considering buying property in the Philippines within the next 12 months.

Even big investors, who have already heavily invested in the Philippines, look at property as a choice to put their money in with 55% wanting to invest more.

The results of the poll undertaken by the New Perspective Media Group show that property tops the list of the preferred investment (55%). The New Perspective Media Group is the organizer of the Philippine Property and Investment Exhibition (PPIE), the biggest investment event for Filipinos in the Middle East.

This is followed by plans to acquire a franchised business or a start-up business (25%). Fifteen percent of the respondents said they will invest in savings account and money market funds (mutual funds) while the rest of the respondents said they are keen to invest in insurance and gold investments (3% and 2%, respectively).

The PPIE, now on its seventh edition, has been gauging the investment sentiment of Filipinos – one of the fastest-growing consumer market segments in the UAE – since 2014. PPIE once again provided an avenue to learn about various investments options in the Philippines both for Filipinos and foreign nationals from April 26 to 27 at the JW Marriott Hotel Dubai in Deira.
