The phrase “Dr. Livingstone, I presume?” became famous after an American correspondent by the name of Henry Morton Stanley hunted for and finally found in 1871 the “lost” African explorer and missionary, Dr. David Livingstone. This famous phrase is still occasionally recounted when someone meets again a “long lost” friend after many years.
Independence Day is a time to celebrate freedom. But many Americans—even many who call themselves Christians—fail to realize that they are not free. Many are slaves to sin. Some even twist Christ’s words and preach that God’s law has been done away with. From the very beginning, some have tried to pervert God’s grace into license. We read in Romans 6:14–16: “For...
Major Protestant denominations of Christendom are in the throes of controversy, some to the point of dissolution. Millions of members of the Southern Baptist Convention, the United Methodist Church, the Presbyterian Churches of America, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, the Pentecostal World Fellowship, the Anglican Communion in the United States, and...
In recent years, farmers have been forced to watch helplessly as unprecedented swarms of locusts have marched across their lands, relentlessly devouring everything in their path. And these plagues may well be only foretastes of others to come. What does Bible prophecy tell us?

A quirky sense of humor and a cynical streak seem to have been the impetus for an interesting book, published years ago, entitled The Peter Principle by educational scholar Dr. Laurence J. Peter. It is a hilarious look at the pitfalls of a bureaucratic organization. The original premise of the author is that in a hierarchically structured organization, people...
Why would someone build a bridge to nowhere? Either they do not realize where they are headed, or they just are not the sharpest tool in the shed. The fact is, though, most of us have probably found ourselves building “bridges to nowhere” at one point or another—in other words, spending a lot of effort on something that will never take us to a useful destination...
What is heaven? I would expect that most reading this have at least pondered the question once or twice in their lives—but, sadly, the truth of this topic is hidden behind a massive wall of religious confusion. Tomorrow’s World holds the Bible as the origin and authority for wisdom and knowledge—so what does the word of God actually teach about this subject?
The biblical festival called Pentecost in the New Testament is coming up soon, taking place on June 16 this year. The word Pentecost comes from the Greek word meaning fiftieth, since it is observed after counting 50 days, beginning with the day of the wave sheaf offering during the Days of Unleavened Bread (Leviticus 23:15–17). Pentecost describes the festival...
By what name should we call God? Is a specific language or pronunciation required? Does honoring God’s name require us to use Hebrew or Hebrew-related terms for God or Jesus—such as Yahweh, Yah, Yeshua, Yahushua, or Jehovah—as some claim?
No, it does not. Those who make such claims about so-called “sacred names” make a number of biblical errors. Here are four.
