We make it easy for you to share truth with others. A burden to fulfill the commission of Jesus spurred us to print our first iss

Jesus warned that signs of His soon return would include highly believable, spiritual scams. How can we avoid falling for them? — writes Gillian Bethel

𝗕𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗙𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀!
Recently, a career woman was persuaded to hand $50,000 to a stranger. She fell for an elaborate phone scam involving people who posed as government identity theft detectives. Until then, she had prided herself on identifying and resisting scams.

Some of today’s deceptions seem so believable that they’re nearly impossible to detect. AI has certainly facilitated that, but humans are also responsible for refining deceit. Yet behind the scenes, there’s a mastermind of deception who’s setting us up for the biggest scam of all.

Deception is not a new “art.” Satan introduced it in heaven and then applied it to the first humans. Posing as a smooth-talking serpent, he charmed Eve into disobeying the only prohibition God had given. When Adam deliberately joined her, evil took root on our planet and in the human race.

Skipping supper increases the production of growth hormone which enhances the body’s ability to burn fat — writes Nana Kwarteng and Elizabeth Jane Hall

If one-third of your assets lie in the prosperity of a certain company, you would probably monitor the progress of that company often. Time is a commodity too. We spend one-third of our lives sleeping. How does sleep of short duration contribute to the epidemic of obesity, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes? Has it contributed to your weight gain? Does good sleep help with weight loss if one is obese?

Fredrick had always taken pride in his good looks, intelligence, and health. An avid exerciser and former health coach, he was kind and likable, often traveling the world. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, he became isolated while working from home. He stayed up late chatting with friends. Over the next two years, he gained noticeable abdominal fat, often referred to as a potbelly. His sleep deteriorated. Five years later, as Fredrick experienced chest pain and saw his doctor, he was surprised to learn that his left main artery had a 90 percent blockage. He was only 43! He had prediabetes even though he was active, had a nearly normal weight, and ate not always the optimal, but a strictly vegetarian diet.

In the parable of the Prodigal Son, the service of only one son flows from a heart of love for his father — writes Betsy Stimpel Mayer

𝗔 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗢𝗹𝗱, 𝗢𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆
The story of the Prodigal Son is one of Christ’s most beloved parables. We’ve all known prodigals. Maybe you’ve even been one yourself!

I suspect, however, that few of us want to identify with the older brother. Yet if you’ve ever been tempted to resent those who disappear when the work gets tough, you might feel a bit of sympathy towards the “obedient brother” who ends up as the “bad guy” in the story.

Ironically, the two very different brothers have a similar problem at the beginning.

The Wayward Younger Brother: We meet him in the story reeking of ingratitude and disrespect towards his father. In the Middle East, inheritances are never given until the father’s death. The younger brother’s audacious request to receive his portion now shows his utter disinterest in a relationship with his father who is as good as dead to him. He’s only interested in what he can get in the moment.

Life Lines – Health News You Can Use

𝗔 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗚𝘂𝘁
Nuts pack fiber and antioxidants that promote a healthy microbiome. But when it comes to building a gut-healthy diet, walnuts are especially recommended.

Walnuts provide fiber and omega-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids may enhance the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, as well as helping to reduce gut inflammation—both crucial for maintaining the integrity of the gut lining. Walnuts also support production of butyric acid, which is associated with less inflammation of the intestinal tract and improved digestion.

Walnuts contain a plethora of antioxidant compounds that protect the digestive tract and reduce inflammation. One review of 33 studies suggests that eating walnuts as part of a healthy diet may help reduce overall disease risk, including the risk of colorectal cancer.

When we abide in Christ, our hopes are centered in Him and we can rest from thoughts of self.

𝗔𝗯𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 "𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳"
Alife in Christ is a life of restfulness. There may be no ecstasy of feeling, but there should be an abiding, peaceful trust. Your hope is not in yourself; it is in Christ. Your weakness is united to His strength, your ignorance to His wisdom, your frailty to His enduring might. So you are not to look to yourself, not to let the mind dwell upon self, but look to Christ. Let the mind dwell upon His love, upon the beauty, the perfection, of His character. Christ in His self-denial, Christ in His humiliation, Christ in His purity and holiness, Christ in His matchless love—this is the subject for the soul’s contemplation.

It is by loving Him, copying Him, depending wholly upon Him, that you are to be transformed into Christ’s likeness. Jesus says, “Abide in Me.” These words convey the idea of rest, stability, confidence. Again He invites, “Come unto Me, ... and I will give you rest.” Matt. 11:28. The words of the psalmist express the same thought: “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him.” And Isaiah gives the assurance, “In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength.” Ps. 37:7; Isa. 30:15.

From the heights of their rocky fortress, the 400 men surveyed General Catinat’s 22,000 soldiers and prayed for a miracle — writes Betsy Stimpel Mayer

𝗚𝗼𝗱’𝘀 𝗔𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗹
It was a glorious spring morning in the Italian Alps. Warm winds had finally melted their impenetrable snowy fortresses. Foaming, singing water rushed down the streams. Over the passes from France came an army of 10,000 French soldiers. Up the valley of the Chisone came 12,000 Piedmontese soldiers to join them.

Marshal Nicolas de Catinat, the most renowned French general of the time, reviewed his orders with satisfaction: “Exterminate the heretics and maintain the Piedmont valleys for God and for King Louis XIV.” Catinat had many wagons filled with food and ammunition. Hundreds of soldiers pushed and pulled strong cannons to batter down the heretics’ fort. Catinat also had 400 ropes with which he intended to hang every one of the “traitors.”

That morning, the 400 Waldensian patriots looked down from their log fortress on La Balsiglia and saw the sun glitter on 22,000 bayonets. It was May 1, 1690. Three and a half years earlier, in the dead of a severe winter, a terrible slaughter and imprisonment had reduced the numbers of these ancient Christians from 20,000 to less than 3,000. The survivors had fled their homes, farms, livestock, and industries for Protestant Switzerland. But the friendly Swiss could not convince these hearty mountaineers to abandon their ancient lands forever. Under the leadership of a brave Waldensian pastor, Henri Arnaud, 800 men secretly set out in August of 1689 to recapture their territories.

In the realm of natural remedies, few ingredients have earned as much acclaim as ginger, a humble root with extraordinary health benefits — writes Mercy Choque de Ballard

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿
Ginger root is known for its brown outer skin, pale yellow flesh, and its strong spicy flavor and aroma. Its unique and appealing flavor has made it popular in teas and as an added dash of flavor in many popular cuisines.

Beyond its warm citrusy flavor, ginger harbors an impressive array of bioactive compounds that impart a host of therapeutic properties. As we learn more about how to combat chronic illness, the spotlight turns to ginger’s potential to be a natural, versatile, and accessible remedy with a buffet of health benefits.

You may be surprised at just how extensive ginger’s beneficial health properties can be. In this article, we will explore the many health benefits it provides as a major tool in the journey toward restoring and maintaining optimal health.
