"Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." -2 Timothy 2:15

    Do You Want To Live Forever?

    Bryan Johnson has one chief purpose in life: not dying.

    The 47-year-old tech entrepreneur notes that immortality is “the most fundamental of all human desires” and that most world religions focus on some version of it. But now, he believes, something like immortality is “technically, potentially possible.”

    Johnson explains: “What I’ve done as a project is I’ve said: Can I slow down my speed of aging to the greatest extent of any human on the planet? And can I then eliminate all the sources of death? Can I become…

    CAN THIS BE THE CHRIST?
    (Jim McDonald)

    The Samaritan woman, leaving her waterpot by the well, rushed to her village, urging the people, “Come, see a man who told me all things that ever I did. Can this be the Christ?” (Jn. 4:25).

    The invitation of this woman, with perhaps Jesus’ supernatural revelation of the woman’s past life, coupled also with the question, “Can this be the Christ?” aroused the interest of the villagers and Jesus did not disappoint them. The Holy Spirit’s comment of these was, “And from that…

    A Lonely Ember

    A member of a certain church, who previously had been attending services
    regularly, stopped going. After a few weeks, one of the elders decided to visit
    him. It was a chilly evening. The elder found the man at home alone, sitting
    before a blazing fire. Guessing the reason for the elder’s visit, the man welcomed
    him, led him to a big chair near the fireplace and waited.
    The elder made himself comfortable but said nothing. In the grave silence, he
    contemplated the play of the flames around the burning logs. After some
    minutes, the elder took the fire…

    GIVE A DEFENSE OF YOUR HOPE
    (By Joe R. Price)

     

    The ability to “give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear” is not inborn (1 Pet. 3:15). “Defense” is translated from apologia which is a “speech in defense” (Thayer, 65). Such a defense of one's hope is to be “a reasoned statement or argument” (Online Bible Greek Lexicon). It requires deliberate faith and diligent study to learn the word of God…

    LET'S NOT BE NARROW
    (by Roy E. Cogdill)

     

         One of the most dreadful things many people can imagine is that they will be accused of "narrow mindedness" in religion. That literally scares them to death; the very thought that they might be considered narrow drives them completely away from the truth. Yet it should not. Truth is narrow. There is nothing liberal or generous about truth; it all narrows down to just one fact. The proper answer to the mathematical…
