    Life after death is not exclusive to New Testament Christianity. The question presented in the title of this article is as ancient as man himself. Job asked this question (Job 14:14), and the answer from heaven, both to Job and the faithful patriarchs of old, has been a resounding “yes”! Men have embraced that hope in a world that is otherwise filled with doubt and despair. In the rock-hewn tombs of the Pharaohs by the Nile River have been found these words:

    “When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?” (Matthew 16:13-15) (1)

    The question of the Deity of Christ is debated by many. The atheist denies the existence of God. The Jehovah’s Witnesses claim Christ was a created being. The Mormon ...

    "Was there ever, thousands of years ago, a personage named Abraham?" was the beginning sentence of the cover story in the December 2001 issue of National Geographic.

    Nine years later, the same question was asked in the December 2010 issue of the same publication about Kings David and Solomon.

    What is man? That is the question that David himself contemplated in the 8th Psalm. What is man that thou art mindful of him? Some claim that this is actually a declarative statement, "What is man!" because of where God has placed him. But I stand with the vast majority of commentators and translators who see this as a serious question. What is man?

    What is man that we deserve what God has done for us? What did we ever do to warrant the place of authority that we have been ...

    "The Bible Tells Me So" By Jeff Grimes

    My son Keith often leads, what is no doubt one of the all time favorite in children’s songs, “Jesus Loves Me.” We are all familiar with the words— “Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so….” When singing these familiar lines are we conscience of the great truth they express?
