DISCIPLE

 This poem was written by Charles Thomas Studd, a renowned cricketer from a wealthy family in England. When he was saved, he gave up his position and fame in England and became a missionary, first to China, then to India, and finally to Africa where he died in 1931. While serving in India, he became engaged to Priscilla. Due to the demands of missionary service they were often separated, and he taught her to repeat daily these words: "Jesus, I love thee, thou art to me, dearer than Charlie ever could be." He expected Christ to occupy first place in every area of life.      C. T. Studd, like ourselves, was not perfect, but he was different from many Christians in that he gave his all for Christ. His poem has motivated many a believer to make life count for the Lord. Perhaps it will be that way with you, dear reader. Two little lines I heard one day,  Traveling along life's busy way; Bringing conviction to my heart,  And from my mind would not depart; Only one life, 'tw

  God's Word is under attack on every side and on every subject. Every time men or women speak of "millions of years" and evolution, they are calling God a liar.  Recently someone proposed on a science website their theory that perhaps the universe never had a beginning. This is in direct conflict with the clear fact stated in God's Word. "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 1:1). These "science" sites have also proposed that a meteor impacted in the area of ancient Sodom and caused the "legend" of God's judgment. This is another ridiculous example of the endless theories and speculations, all based on distrust and disbelief in God's Word. Another attack on Scripture and a display of ignorant arrogance and foolishness is the transgender theory that people everywhere are hearing and believing. It is basically an excuse to justify wicked behavior. And of course, their general strategy is to silence or r

 Eric Parmenter The problems of the world today are greater than they have ever been in the past, yet all ate symptomatic of one basic disease: sin. A state of revolt is found in almost every sphere of society, and lawlessness abounds on every hand. REBELLION IN THE THEOLOGICAL REALM The hypothesis of evolution robs many of confidence in the Bible, and has stolen from others the sense of the reality and "personal characters of an eternal and almighty God. Professed teachers of religion question Jesus Christ as the Son of God. Ecclesiastics deny the virgin birth of Jesus, and His bodily resurrection. They pour scorn on the biblical account of the nativity. Creation is discounted as myth. No longer do they confess the deity of Christ, nor do they accept the truth of His atoning death. Any suggestion of eternal punishment and an eternal hell are vigorously resisted. REBELLION IN THE SPIRITUAL REALM Insidiously the allurements and deceptions of Eastern religions, psychic research, ast
