A quiet moment

  1. 14th May 2011
  2. J. Davy Crockett III

When I was in college, many years ago, sowing a bumper crop of “wild oats,” my time was crammed with activities.  You have probably experienced something like it—classes to attend, research and studies to complete, extra-curricular activities and social obligations, with a healthy dose of goofing off mixed in, each day starting early and going late, seldom...

God’s stamp of approval

  2. David Moore (guest columnist)

One of the most fascinating proofs that the Bible is the inspired word of God is found in how God inspired His servants to number and order the books of Scripture.

Gossip Evolved?

  1. 10th May 2011
  2. Roger Meyer

"Did you hear about so-and-so?" Ears perk up, heads turn and attention is grabbed when we hear those words. We know we are about to hear something private and scandalous about someone we know. Psychologists say gossip has evolutionary origins with our prehistoric ancestors and enabled cavemen, and even their supposed primate ancestors, to survive. What are the...

An "Exploited Peasant With an Attitude"?

  1. 07th May 2011
  2. Wyatt Ciesielka

Was Jesus Christ just a compassionate prophet, or was He truly God in the flesh? The Apostle Paul warned that many would come and preach “another Jesus whom we have not preached” (2 Corinthians 11:4) and theories about Jesus certainly abound. Some professing Christian scholars even claim that Jesus was nothing more than “an exploited peasant with an attitude” (“...

“Welcome to Hell, bin Laden”

  1. 03rd May 2011
  2. Wallace G. Smith

As I read the news coverage of Osama bin Laden’s death, one forceful comment jumped out at me: “Welcome to Hell, bin Laden,” wrote Mike Huckabee, former Arkansas governor and 2008 presidential candidate.  Is Huckabee right?  Is Osama bin Laden now in Hell?

On the Mount of Olives, almost 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ spoke a prophecy, which described "lawlessness" abounding in the last days. He gave this prophecy to His disciples, when they asked Him what to look for directly before Christ's Return. Is increasing lawlessness a sign that the end of the world is near?

  2. William E. Oswald

My wife and I have just recently celebrated our 52nd wedding anniversary. And over the years, people having learned of our marriage longevity have made several comments. One comment we receive the most is: "Not many couples these days stay together that long."

Reading the right instructions

  1. 28th April 2011
  2. Valentin Celan (guest columnist)

Last November consumers called for a boycott of Amazon.com for selling an e-book entitled The Pedophile's Guide to Love and Pleasure. Although currently it can no longer be found, as Amazon may have given in to public outcry, at first they defended their stance by saying: "Amazon believes it is censorship not to sell certain books simply because we or others...

Immortality engineered by man?

  1. 26th April 2011
  2. Roger Meyer

A recent Time magazine article is titled, "2045: The Year Man Becomes Immortal." It doesn't refer to a transformation to spirit life, but a transformation called "singularity." That's when computers become hyper-intelligent and either solve aging, or actually merge with man to transform man into a cyborg or android being. Is this really immortality?

Will Christ return on May 21, 2011?

  1. 23rd April 2011
  2. Wyatt Ciesielka

A growing movement claims that Christ will return on May 21, 2011.  Some are so convinced of this date that they have left their families and their jobs to embark on evangelistic campaigns to proclaim “the awesome news” that this date marks “the end of the world” and “the rapture” of God’s saints!  Could they be right?
