In His Steps
"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Ephesians 2:10
"The Lord does not accept the service of those who live an inefficient, do-nothing life. They exert an influence that leads away from Christ. Self-denial and nobility of purpose marked His life. From the beginning to the close of His earthly ministry He went about doing good. In His life no sin appeared. No selfishness marred word or act. "Which of you convinceth me of sin?" (John 8:46), He asked the Pharisees, knowing that they could find nothing of which to accuse Him. And at His trial, Pilate declared emphatically, "I find in him no fault at all" (John 18:38). Christ declares that as He lived, so we are to live. "Whosoever will come after me," He says, "let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me" (Mark 8:34). His footsteps lead along the pathway of sacrifice. As we pass through life, there come to us many opportunities for service. All around us there are open doors for ministry. By the right use of the talent of speech, we may do much for the Master. Words are a power for good when they are weighted with the tenderness and sympathy of Christ. Money, influence, tact, time, and strength--all these are gifts entrusted to us to make us more helpful to those around us, and more of an honor to our Creator. Many feel that it would be a privilege to visit the scenes of Christ's life on earth, to walk where He trod, to look upon the lake where He loved to teach, and the valleys and hills where His eyes so often rested; but we need not go to Palestine in order to walk in the steps of Jesus. We shall find His footprints beside the sickbed, in the hovels of poverty, in the crowded alleys of the great city, and in every place where there are human hearts in need of consolation. All may find something to do. "The poor always ye have with you" (John 12:8), Jesus said, and none need feel that there is no place where they can labor for Him... Christ's rule of life, by which everyone must stand or fall in the judgment, is, "Whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them" (Matthew 7:12). - RH, 02/29/1912

Can the Bible be supported by science?
When speaking to people about faith and the Bible you have probably heared someone say "I believe in science", "I am more of a science guy", "Science cannot prove the Bible, it's not possible". It can be quite challenging to provide sufficient arguments for this kind of people so as to possibly make them consider and change their way of thinking. On this channel we will give multiple proofs showing that science and the Bible do go hand in hand.

Q: Was the water cycle in the Bible?
💨 Evaporation
Psalm 135:7 KJV
He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth…
Confirmation:
"Water evaporates from the Earth's surface and rises on warm updrafts into the atmosphere." - Nasa
"The air is full of water vapor, although most of the time we can't see it." - USGS
☁️ Condensation
Job 26:8 KJV
He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent under them.
Confirmation:
"Condensation is the process by which water vapour in the air is changed into liquid water… Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds…" - USGS
🌧 Precipitation
Job 36:27-28 KJV
For he maketh small the drops of water: they pour down rain according to the vapour thereof: 28 Which the clouds do drop and distil upon man abundantly.
Confirmation:
"The clouds floating overhead contain water vapor and cloud droplets, which are small drops of condensed water…Water droplets may grow as a result of additional condensation of water vapor when the particles collide. If enough collisions occur to produce a droplet with a fall velocity which exceeds the cloud updraft speed, then it will fall out of the cloud as precipitation." - USGS

🚨 Joe Biden: “…Sunday Is The Sabbath, A Day Of Rest”
On Sunday March 5th 2023, President Joe Biden spoke on the Anniversary of Bloody Sunday at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama.
Throughout the speech, Biden used religious tones:
“On this stage, “the children of God” started a journey. “Walking…not saying a word…beaten, tear-gassed.” On this bridge, blood was given to help “redeem the soul of America.”
He went on to say:
“But there’s more work to do. We’ll protect Social Security and Medicare, and we’ll protect – Did you – by the way, did you see that State of the Union address?”
“Yes!” (Audience)
“I said, “That means all you guys are against cutting Medicare and Social Security?” “Oh, yeah!” Well, in my religion, we go, “Bless me, Father. That’s a wonderful thing.” (While he was doing the Catholic sign of the cross)
Joe Biden then closed his Sunday speech with the following:
“Let me close with this. In many of your faith traditions, Sunday is the Sabbath, a day of rest. But on that Sunday morning, on March 7th, 1965, Amelia Boynton Robinson and 600 of her fellow children of God chose different pews.“
“On this bridge of her beloved Selma, they were called to the altar of democracy, unsure of their fate but certain that the cause was righteous. So she would go on to say, quote, “You can never know where you’re going unless you know where you’ve been.” We know where we have been.”
“And, my fellow Americans, on this Sunday of our time, we know where we’ve been and we know, more importantly, where we have to go: forward together.”
“So let’s pray, but let’s not rest.“
“Let’s keep marching. Let’s keep the faith.”
“But most of all, let’s remember who we are. We’re the United States of America, and there’s nothing – nothing beyond our capacity when we act together. So, let’s go and finish the job.”
“God bless you all. And may God bless our troops.”

Sunday Laws are coming sooner, rather than later! Christian prophecy will never fail, and it never has! Whether you realize it or not, Joe Biden is a religious leader.
“In the last conflict the Sabbath will be the special point of controversy throughout all Christendom. Secular rulers and religious leaders will unite to en-force the observance of the Sunday; and as milder measures fail, the most oppressive laws will be enacted. It will be urged that the few who stand in opposition to an institution of the church and a law of the land ought not to be tolerated; and a decree will flnally be issued denouncing them as deserving of the severest punishment, and giving the people liberty, after a certain time, to put them to death. Romanism in the Old World, and apostate Protestantism in the New, will pursue a similar course toward those who honor the divine precepts.” - SOP IV 444.2
Regardless of who the President is, we need to pray for them.
1 Timothy 2:1-2 “I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.”
We must pray that God’s will is done through President Joe Biden, and we must pray for his salvation.

Strength From Struggle
"For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed." Isaiah 50:7
"You have been bought with an infinite price and you are not your own. Soul, body, and spirit belong to Jesus Christ and you should in all humility, yet with firmness and decision, say "I am the Lord's. I will serve Him with my whole heart, mind, might, and strength." Do not be discouraged with the opposition you encounter. It might at the present time be more pleasant to float with the current for the descent from righteousness and holiness to darkness and transgression is easy, while the one who seeks to win the eternal shores will have to struggle against wind and tide. A faith and religion that is not aggressive in spirit or heroic in action, but is corrupted by worldly currents is the only religion admired and respected and esteemed worthy by the world... The scorn and derision, which is called forth from that class who despise the truth of God, is a compliment to Christian integrity. If you were of the world, you could enjoy its smiles, its flattery, and its applause. If Jesus Christ is in you, the hope of glory, your spirituality will rebuke the pride and extravagance of the world... The opposition which you meet may prove an advantage to you in many respects. It will develop a class of Christian virtues which seldom spring up in the path of prosperity and sunshine. Faith, patience, forbearance, heavenly-mindedness, increasing trust in Providence are the fruits which blossom and mature amid clouds of darkness, storm, and tempest. The forest tree which stands alone and exposed to the fierce winds and storm and tempest will not be uprooted by the gale, but will strike its roots deep and spread out its branches in every direction, becoming more beautiful and strong as the consequence of its withstanding storm and tempest. This may be your case. You may be deprived of sympathy and human support and you may feel that your only hope is to reach up your hands in supplication to God and hang your helpless soul upon your Redeemer. Help which heaven sends will be just what you need... If you fear God, you need not fear anything beside. If you please Him, you will secure everything your soul requires." -Letter 4a, 02/08/1880

Q: Can seas be gathered as a heap?
Psalm 33:7 KJV
He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
Ancient storehouses in Israel would consist of stone structures to store food, hence this verse implies that the deep sea can be stored in pockets of water deep underground.
Confirmation:
"The finding, published in Science, suggests that a reservoir of water is hidden in the Earth's mantle, more than 400 miles below the surface. Try to refrain from imagining expanses of underground seas: all this water, three times the volume of water on the surface, is trapped inside rocks." - Smithsonian Science Education Centre
"Schmandt et al. combined seismological observations beneath North America with geodynamical modeling and high-pressure and -temperature melting experiments. They conclude that the mantle transition zone—410 to 660 km below Earth's surface—acts as a large reservoir of water." - science.org

China: “Smart Religion” App Required to Attend Religious Activities
The China Aid site reported on March 6, 2023, that “if religious believers want to participate in religious activities, they must make online reservations before they can attend services in churches, mosques, or Buddhist temples. Local believers must register and make an appointment through an application called “Smart Religion,” developed by the Ethnic and Religious Affairs Commission of Henan Province… Applicants must fill in personal information, including name, phone number, ID number, permanent residence, occupation, and date of birth, before they can make a reservation. Those who are allowed into the church must also have their temperature taken and show a reservation code… The big data platform “Smart Religion” of the State Administration of Religious Affairs also introduced big religious data and artificial intelligence. The overview of this product utilizes technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, electronic maps, mobile web, and 720-degree VR panoramic map. Through precise positioning and video surveillance of the venues used for religious purposes in Chang’an district, and through religious multidimensional data analysis to improve religious affairs management.” – Source.

This digital app is another tool out of many tools to track down people and attempt to control individual’s freedom to worship God especially to enforce the MARK. These tools are now existing to track down true Christians that will refuse the mark of the beast in the near future. You can only have “religious freedom” in China as long as you choose the Chinese government approved religion. Soon, this will be true to all nations who will adopt the same system of government.
The Vatican has already stated that China is the best example of Roman church’s social doctrine. The pope of Rome has promoted communism, socialism, ecumenism, same sex marriages, homosexuality, etc., just to name a few. Soon, all the world will be forced to follow Rome’s authority to worship “another Jesus” and break God’s law but the true followers of Christ will obey and worship the real Jesus because they keep the commandments of God and faith of Jesus.
Just like how the government authority, in the time of Esther and in the time of Daniel, was used by satan to try and force God’s people to break God’s law in face of imprisonment, persecution or even death, he will again use them in our time to repeat its mandate as this was his favorite attack to God’s people. But the true and obedient Christians will not have any fear nor doubt at all in the coming crisis for they have a God of refuge, they have the assurance of protection in the time of trouble just like how God delivered His faithful of old from certain calamity.

Q: Are there storehouses of snow on the earth?
Job 38:22 KJV
Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow?...
Context: Job lived in Uz, which would be south east of modern day Israel. The Lord asks Job whether he has entered into the storehouses of snow. This would imply there are stores of snow on the earth somewhere.
Confirmation:
"Probably the first to approach the Arctic regions was a Greek, Pytheas, who in the 4th century BCE made a voyage from the Mediterranean, around Britain, to a place he called Thule, variously identified as the Shetlands, Iceland, and Norway." - Britannica
"snow and ice climate, major climate type of the Köppen classification characterized by bitterly cold temperatures and scant precipitation. It occurs poleward of 65° N and S latitude over the ice caps of Greenland and Antarctica and over the permanently frozen portion of the Arctic Ocean." - Britannica

Q: Are there springs in the sea?
Job 38:16 KJV
Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?
(Note: depth means deep ocean/sea)
In 350 BC an ancient Greek writer Aristotle believed that: "The old writers who invented theogonies say that the sea has springs, for they want earth and sea to have foundations and roots of their own. Presumably they thought that this view was grander and more impressive as implying that our earth was an important part of the universe … We must now consider the facts which prove that the sea cannot possibly have springs. The waters we find on the earth either flow or are stationary." - Meteorology by Aristotle
Confirmation:
"In 1977, scientists discovered hot springs at a depth of 2.5 km, on the Galapagos Rift (spreading ridge) off the coast of Ecuador. This exciting discovery was not really a surprise. Since the early 1970s, scientists had predicted that hot springs (geothermal vents) should be found at the active spreading centers along the mid-oceanic ridges, where magma, at temperatures over 1,000 °C, presumably was being erupted to form new oceanic crust. More exciting, because it was totally unexpected, was the discovery of abundant and unusual sea life giant tube worms, huge clams, and mussels that thrived around the hot springs." - USGS
