Do you use a cellphone when it is dark?
Read this. It's important.
FORWARDED AS RECEIVED!!
My younger brother Dr Justice Arthur, who's a medical officer at Cape Coast hospital ( Bakkano) appealed to me to share this post with you. He says its very important.
Pls do not ignore or delay reading this:
When lights are off at night, one must not view the hand phone! (Smartphone)
Please share with family friends URGENTLY.....
Habitually using hand phones before bedtime in the dark can lead to serious problems.
Recently, an increasing number of 30-40 year-old patients are seeking medical attention due to using hand phones in the dark.
Professor Li Li, director of the Hospital of Ophthalmology SGH Singapore, said: direct glare of >30 minutes would cause irreversible eye macular degeneration that leads to rapid deterioration of vision.
Contracting maculopathy (eye cancer) means waiting for loss of sight because modern medicine cannot treat, let alone cure it.
The bright phone in the dark with close-up view high-energy directed at the eyes will damage the macula of the eye.
Professor Li Li said that symptoms of macular degeneration is mostly experienced by old people, but lately patients are getting younger. Patients who are 30-40 years of age increased by 3 %, most are frequent users of hand phones.
However, viewing the hand phone in the dark not only causes macular degeneration. It initially causes dry eyes, cataracts and eventually loss of sight.
Early lesions of the eye have to be treated with laser or injection of steroids.
254 Hospital eye specialist Professor Li Li suggested that the most important thing is to get rid of the bad habit of using handphones in the dark. Because habitual use of handphones in the dark b4 bedtimes may cause a lifetime of harm.
Friends: In order to look after ourselves and our families, remember not to turn off the lights if viewing the handphone. Inform handphone users urgently that viewing handphones in the dark can easily lead to loss of sight!
Sharing is caring..

COMMUNITY CHECKER TESTIMONY

I am Martin Baybayan of Barangay Magsaysay, Tabuk City, Kalinga.
When this Translation Project was contemplated upon, I was invited to attend the first meetings. When this Oral Bible Translation officially started, I was not able to fully participate due to my duties as elected council member of our barangay (village). When the first checker died, I was asked by the team to function as the next community checker. At first, I really don’t know what to do, but through the help of our Heavenly Father I was guided to do what I am doing now. So I’m so thankful to the Almighty that I am now officially part of this Translation Team in translating God’s word in our Bago Language.
That’s all I can say. Thank you…

COMMUNITY IMPACT USING THE AUDIO OF ACTS 12: 25- 13: 3 IN BAGO VERSION
These 3 Questions and one good Question were answered by Mrs. Leony Bang-asan
1. Is the story right as translated in our Bago Language?
Ans.: Yes, but I noticed the word “isdi” is suppose to be changed with “ad” because to me that is more proper, to give distinction between a near(isdi) and far(ad) place. Generally, yes the translation is good
2. Is it better if the story is translated in our Bago Language?
Ans.: Yes, specially to the young generation; they need to hear God’s word in our own language.
3. Will the story be understood if translated in our Bago Language?
Ans.: Yes, I believe they will understand.
GOOD QUESTION: Where did they send Barnabas and Saul?
Ans.: They were sent to preach the Gospel to where the Holy Spirit told them.
SIX GENERAL QUESTIONS: These 1st 3 Questions were answered by Mrs. Nena B. Perez
1. What lesson did you learn from the story?
Ans.: In this passage from the book of Acts, I can see that the disciples were so obedient, dedicated and loving to the Lord’s work.
2. What do you feel when you heard the story in our Bago Language?
Ans.: I’m so happy to hear the story narrated in our Bago Language. And I’m thinking now of our younger generation. They must learn to treasure our dialect or mother tongue because it is now being used to bring God’s word to them.
3. What part of the story that you don’t like?
Ans.: None; I like all and we must like all of the word of the Lord.
These last 3 General Questions were again answered by Mrs. Leony Bang-asan
4. What part of the story that you like?
Ans.: I like the entire passage because it inspired so much people; the bringers of the gospel and the receivers as well, it really brought change in the lives of many.
5. What part of the story you think that others don’t like?
Ans.: There are people who are receptive of the Gospel, but are always who’ll reject it. What matter is as long as the Word is preached to them then that’s up to them if they receive it or not.
6. Aside from your many answers, what more you want to add to it?
Ans.: What I want to add is, you are the ones to add more of your patience and effort so that when the Gospel is preached through the product of your translation, our own language will also be spreading with God’s word.
