Proof The Bible Is True

Should I chance it? The puddle blocking the entrance of the doctor’s office parking lot had to be at least a foot deep. It practically made waves. The cars in front of me didn’t share my hesitation; they drove straight through. I pressed down on the gas and followed. The engine died. The dashboard lit up. My car wouldn’t budge. Sudden tropical downpours are a danger in South Florida, especially for someone in their seventies. The whole drive here, I could scarcely see more than a few feet in front of me through the rain. Now, half of my car [More]

“Wow!” was all I could say about the large silver salmon my husband had just caught. The fishing trip was going great–so why was Darryl packing up his equipment? “Don’t you want to keep fishing?” I asked. We were out on The Queen Charlotte Strait, off the coast of Vancouver Island, in an aluminum boat just big enough for two. My company had rented a lodge and sponsored a fishing trip for employees, and my husband and I were thrilled to get a weekend away from the house and the kids. A group of us had spent the morning fishing [More]

“Miracle answer to prayer.” Admin Her grandfather’s orchard was the family’s pride and joy. Now they were in danger of losing it to the weather. “I’ve never seen cold weather last so long!” Mom said when I arrived at the family ranch near Mariposa, California. Since Dad died she was on her own up there. Normally she was able to manage the place by herself, but this January had brought unusually frigid weather for California, and she needed my help. “Don’t worry,” I told her. “I’ll load more wood in the stoves. Then I’ll check on the oranges.” The small [More]

While a growing body of research now suggests that x-ray mammography is causing more harm than good in the millions of women who subject themselves to breast screenings, annually, without knowledge of their true health risks, the primary focus has been on the harms associated with over-diagnosis and over-treatment, and not the radiobiological dangers of the procedure itself. In 2006, a paper published in the British Journal of Radiobiology, titled “Enhanced biological effectiveness of low energy X-rays and implications for the UK breast screening programme,” revealed the type of radiation used in x-ray-based breast screenings is much more carcinogenic than [More]

Leading immunologists at International Congress on Autoimmunity link aluminum in vaccines to a new post-vaccine syndrome While “anti-vaxxers” are being smeared in public campaigns as backward and unscientific fear-mongers, a growing body of cutting edge research is emerging from the top echelons of medical immunology to confirm what the cranks have been saying for years about the devastating effects of vaccine ingredients. The biggest names in the field of study of the human immune system are attached to current papers in the most prestigious immunology literature that link widely used vaccine ingredients such as aluminum to terrifying modern epidemics of [More]

“A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.”~Proverbs 17:22 It saddens me to see older women diagnosed with “osteopenia” or “osteoporosis” listening to their doctors and taking supplemental calcium and even problematic drugs called bisphosphonates. These are irrational, dogmatic, harmful approaches to the problem of degrading bone as we age. In my time practicing nephrology and internal medicine, I saw numerous patients suffering from vascular disease while taking the recommended doses of calcium. X-rays revealed perfect outlines of calcified blood vessels and calcified heart valves. Osteoporisis Is Scurvy of the Bone, Not Calcium Deficiency [More]

Cutting edge science now points to this common spice as a possible ‘curative agent’ for Alzheimer’s. Considering the well-known harms and lack of effectiveness associated with pharmaceutical agents for this condition, this research promises a new therapeutic path for this so-called ‘incurable’ disease. A new study published in the Indian Journal of Experimental Biology suggests that ginger may be an excellent natural anti-Alzheimer’s (AD) treatment. Indian researchers at the Department of Neurochemistry, National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences, report that ginger may provide “multiple therapeutic molecular targets of AD and can be considered as an effective nontoxic nutraceutical supplement [More]

We’ve known for decades that cardiovascular disease is notably lower in southern Europe especially compared to the U.S. The Mediterranean diet, consisting of more fruits, vegetables, and olive oil, usually gets the credit. It’s been shown to reduce the number of heart attacks and strokes in patients with high cardiovascular risk. Now researchers have identified a key nutrient in the Mediterranean diet that deserves special mention. They found that lycopene, a carotenoid found abundantly in tomatoes, helps reduce cardiovascular disease risk. Lycopene gives tomatoes and other fruits and vegetables a distinctive red color. It’s a powerful antioxidant and 10 times [More]

Do you have childhood memories of playing outside during the summer and taking cool drinks of water from the garden hose? Many people do, and most parents probably think nothing of it, but it’s vitally important that you avoid drinking out of the hose. In fact, if you look closely, you’ll see a warning label on most garden hoses warning you against just that. The reason? Being that garden hoses are not intended for drinking water, there are no regulations about what kinds of chemicals can be in them. And as you might suspect, most garden hoses are far from [More]

“Would we make the same decision if faced with similar circumstances? Something to think about.”  Admin In a small village in Colombian, 139 indigenous believers had bravely chosen to leave their livelihoods and familiar homes rather than deny Christ. As they sat together, contemplating their situation, the enormous needs facing them were impossible to ignore. Some of them secretly wondered whether or not they had made the right decisions. The indigenous authorities in their village approached them last year with the demand that they sign a document renouncing their beliefs or face the consequences. Overwhelmed by what awaited them if [More]

“How we take for granted the Bibles we possess and for many seldom read, while others consider them a rare treasure worth any hardship to obtain and cherish, quite a contrast.”  Admin We recently recieved this report from Ted, a Christian worker serving in Nepal who connected with one of our VOM workers and participated in a day of VOM ministry outreach: The day began with a monthly prayer meeting for pastors. Approximately 60 pastors traveled the rough roads of Nepal and gathered for a wonderful time of worship, prayer, and fellowship. We prayed not only for Nepal, but also [More]

I picked up a recent copy of the International Bulletin of Missionary Research.  I like to read through the whole issue to keep informed about missions, so I read an article that I thought I would not relate to me or to anything that I do. I was wrong! The article was about East Syrian Monasteries in the Ninth Century! It turned out to be a great article that related to just about everything I do and love. It was about love for God and love for learning. I was struck by one of the author’s statements (Steve Cochrane): “The [More]

“A look at how God is moving in the Chinese church.”  Admin Open Doors OD fieldworker Sheng recently visited a group of a hundred church workers who belong to a major Christian network in China. He was deeply touched by what he encountered. “They have little to no information on the persecuted church, but they pray day and night.” As the Chinese church experiences increasing levels of religious freedom, one of OD’s major projects is creating awareness among the Han Chinese – the Han people group represents 90% of the Chinese population – about the persecuted church around the world.

“Sad but true, millions of Christians spend hardly any time in the Word and are therefore spiritually anemic. If they ever had to use their faith in a crisis they would fail miserably. “So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God”.  Admin Stacey Irvine ate almost nothing but chicken nuggets for 15 years. She never tasted fruits or vegetables. She occasionally supplemented her diet with French fries. One day her tongue started to swell and she couldn’t catch her breath. She was rushed to the hospital, her airway was forced open, and they stuck an [More]

An experienced Christian moviemaker plans to release a film this September which he hopes will be ‘an excellent discussion starter’ on the creation/evolution debate. Rich Christiano is a filmmaker in southern California who has directed a number of popular Christian movies, including the award-winning 2009 film, The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry. Many believe Christiano’s latest project, titled A Matter of Faith, has the potential to powerfully impact the Christian church and the culture at large. The subject matter of A Matter of Faith, Christiano told Christian News Network, is the evolution versus creation debate. “Evolution is basically taught in our [More]

“Somewhat lengthy but very interesting article about archaeological discoveries giving support to the Biblical accounts of the kingdoms of David and Solomon and answering critics who say such kingdoms didn’t exist.”  Admin For one who loves biblical studies and is intensely interested in its intersection with history and archaeology, the potential impact of the latter on the former deserves attention. In various academic and popular settings, numerous scholars in these fields make sweeping statements about the disjuncture between archaeology and/or history and the Bible. Those statements are made with authority and have widespread impact, even on an evangelical audience. How [More]

“The trends noted in this article are not surprising given the increasing secular nature of society, the ungodly education kids are receiving in schools and the watered down Gospel being preached in a lot of compromised churches.”  Admin According to the findings of a Gallup poll released on Wednesday, 28 percent of Americans believe that the Bible was “the actual word of God” and that it should be “taken literally, word for word.” Forty percent of Americans agreed with that statement in 1979 — a record high — though the number has since declined every year with the exception of [More]

“After you’ve read this article you’ll know why it’s so important to be able to defend your faith and to make sure your faith is genuine. If these trends continue and the culture becomes less “Christian” and more secular expect an increasing hostility towards genuine Christians. This is something we must all be prepared for.”  Admin Here are four trends that are already evident, but will become even more important in days to come. 1. The Word “Christian” Will Become Less Used and More Clear. There are three broad categories that make up the approximately 75 percent of Americans who [More]

The sun was just beginning to come up as I pulled into the ER parking lot. The morning started smoothly enough, with only a handful of routine cases. I was coming out of room 4 when Virginia, the head nurse, walked over, glanced at the empty major trauma room, and motioned for me to follow her. “Dr. Lesslie,” she began. Her voice was somehow different, and it surprised me. She was speaking quietly, but with a definite seriousness, and there was something else there. It was a gentleness, something I couldn’t remember hearing before. “Do you believe in angels?” Read [More]

Jim Snyder would consider himself an ordinary man living an ordinary life, surely not one that involves angel sightings. But when his young wife died of pancreatic cancer, Jim was devastated by her loss. He tried to hold everything together and deal with his grief. But as months passed and Jim’s heartache continued, “I began asking God for a sign that everything would be okay, and that I would eventually get through this,” Jim says.

During a book signing in Lexington, Kentucky, a group of women gathered around my table to tell about their neighbor, Barbara, who had not been able to come and tell me this story herself. Barbara was driving her six-year-old son, Benjamin, to his piano lesson. They were late, and Barbara was beginning to think she should have canceled it. There was always so much to do, and Barbara, a night-duty nurse at the local hospital, had recently worked extra shifts. She was tired. The sleet storm and icy roads added to her tension. Maybe she should turn the car around. [More]

Daisies are my favorite flower. Anything with daisies gets my attention–even the word on my computer screen. “Please help save Daisy the Dog!” my friend Judy had posted on Facebook. The message included a picture of a pit bull mix. She looks a lot like Allie, I thought. Our beloved Staffordshire Terrier had died a year and a half before. I couldn’t imagine replacing her. But I also couldn’t stop myself from reading the post. The picture had come from a Facebook app called Pet Pardons, which helped people find homes for shelter animals scheduled to be put to sleep.
