Let's Go Back to the Bible

Thought for the Day (Page 196)

Amazing how much man doesn’t know what he doesn’t know

So, supposedly scientists know what the temperatures were like on Earth 11,000 years ago.  Hmm!  Were they measuring in Fahrenheit or Celsius or Kelvin back then? And, they have been able to accurately track patterns and fluctuations ever since.  Hmm!  Now was that using gas, coils, mercury, wax or something else to maintain consistent measurements over those eleven millennia? They also say…

Crash the party? I don’t think so!

Well, did they crash the party at the White House or not?  Were they invited or not?  Were they on the guest list or not?  If they weren’t on the guest list, then who let them in?  Were they really invited and on some list and now things are just being exaggerated for media purposes?  What really happened? We may never know…

If someone gave you 875 million dollars…

Ok, so what would you do with it?  I mean initially.  Where would you put 875 million dollars?  It won’t fit in your wallet or purse or even your house.  That would be 8.75 million bills (if all were $100 bills).  But what if some bills were smaller and you had hundreds of millions of bills to manage?  Would you even know…

Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound

For more than 50 years, Superman has been described in these words – “Faster than a speeding bullet.  More powerful than a locomotive.  Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.”  (Of course, some would wonder why he needs to leap over a building when he can fly over it.)  How would you describe such a man with these “super” abilities? …

More blessed to give!

The Christmas season is one of my favorites, however, the selfishness and materialism that is often exhibited is downright shameful.  It is, no doubt, pleasurable to receive gifts and kindnesses during the holidays (or any time for that matter).  However, there is something that can bring much greater pleasure than actually receiving (as hard as that might be to believe). We hear…

Ladies, let’s talk for a minute

I realize that one of ladies’ least favorite matters to discuss is the subject of modest apparel, but that does not negate or diminish the emphasis that God gives to the matter in Scripture–“I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly” (1 Tim. 2:9).  To come at it from another angle, God says, “So then each of us…
