GOOD NEWS


Many of us know about this but few say too much about it. I remember having an assignment that I had to do at seminary. The paper was to be on a religious group and their contribution to Christ’s mission. Back then, you took a walk to the library and went looking for information.
Luck would have it that I found a few books on the subject and started writing about what I found. I was pumped. The last book I looked at gave so much information that I thought I hit the mother lode. Felt so good about the paper when I handed it in. Then. . .
The prof handed it back and said, “You will have to do better than this because the last book was written by and unknown author and these books were only sent to libraries. All the information was made up.” WHAT, the McMaster Library has fake news published books back in the ‘90’s?
Fast forward to 2019. Donald is always talking about fake news. Our computers are full of fake news and so are many of the emails we receive each day that we have not subscribed to. Then there are all those emails asking us from facebook to add a friend. But you already had added them as a friend. What’s with that. It’s another scammer trying to get into you facebook account and computer.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. The Bible tells us that the truth will set us free. But where do we find it today. We have to be very cautious in what we read and what we accept in our fast computer age. So much is not real. Well, except for one item we can call on for every situation and answer we are looking for in life. The word of God, our Bible tells the whole true and nothing but the truth. It is there to guide and direct and cuts to the very core of our hearts and lives.
Here is what we read:   Hebrews 4:12,  For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
Nice to know, and.
Something to think about
