INTRODUCTION

“Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” (Hebrews 13:8, 9)

The Rev Dr Timothy Tow (1920-2009) was the founder of the Bible-Presbyterian Church and Movement in Southeast Asia. He was saved during the Singapore Pentecost in 1935 under the great Chinese revivalist—Dr John Sung. He received his theological training from Spiritual Training Theological Seminary in China and Faith Theological Seminary in the USA. He was founding pastor of Life Bible-Presbyterian Church from 1950 to 2003. He founded the Far Eastern Bible College in 1962 and led the College as principal until 2009. In 2003, he founded True Life Bible-Presbyterian Church and served as her pastor until 2009 when he was called home to be with the Lord at the age of 88.

The Rev Dr Timothy Tow was a pastor and theologian par excellence, a man of God. He has left behind a wealth of teaching from God’s Word. Much can be learned from his articles found in his Church Weekly, his books published by the FEBC Press, and the hymns and songs he composed. Do not miss the candid telling of his life-story when he was interviewed by the Oral History Centre of the National Heritage Board, and the many other memorable items contained in this publication; “... by it he being dead yet speaketh” (Heb 11:4).
