July 10, 1997: Neanderthal DNA Suggests a Separate, Unequal Being

This article, what can I say. I am just a bit flabbergasted. Now we are an inferior being? Oh I understand, the Unequal Being is survived by the inferior being. Because of DNA research, obviously they can no longer make claims that something is billions of years old. But now they expect me to swallow that we are cross bread of Homo sapiens and Neanderthals. This article states that, "that theory has been debunked by DNA analysis, but the debate continues." What debate? The discussion is over!

It seems to me by reading this article we are seeing an even bigger story than the subject of this article. In what is being stated is a sense of insecurity as to what the truth really is. The author uses expressions like "but seem to point" and "for approximately 30,000 years" and "was seemingly", and this last one "Fossils indicate". You can make "Fossils indicate" what ever you want to argue.

What I am seeing here, which is the good news about this article is the author's intimidation by the advances in modern science and technology. He is very careful to stay in a safe position for fear of scrutiny.

In my opinion, the shady history of the secular anthropologists and their insane boasts over the last couple of hundred years, and even right into our day, are now, to borrow a expression from this author, "are seemingly" motivated by their want for more money to fund their so called expeditions and experiments. If the anthropologist of a generation ago stuck to what was found to be true and honest, they would have to find another way to financially support themselves and also to expatiate their egos.

Fortunately today with technology increasing in accuracy and proving what is true. We will be able to know that it is a pig's tooth instead of a whole new species found in Nebraska.

Equipped for Every Good Work

Good day to you, this morning I put together a audio blog on 2 Timothy 3:12-17 and I enjoyed it so much I thought you might like the info I used. So here it is:

2Ti 3:12 And indeed, all who want to live a godly life united with the Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted,
2Ti 3:13 while evil people and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving others and being deceived themselves.
2Ti 3:14 But you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, recalling the people from whom you learned it;
2Ti 3:15 and recalling too how from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which can give you the wisdom that leads to deliverance through trusting in Yeshua the Messiah.
2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is valuable for teaching the truth, convicting of sin, correcting faults and training in right living;
2Ti 3:17 thus anyone who belongs to God may be fully equipped for every good work. (Complete Jewish Bible)

Here is a quote from Matthew Henry:

2Ti 3:10-13 -
The more fully we know the doctrine of Christ, as taught by the apostles, the more closely we shall cleave to it. When we know the afflictions of believers only in part, they tempt us to decline the cause for which they suffer. A form of godliness, a profession of Christian faith without a godly life, often is allowed to pass, while open profession of the truth as it is in Jesus, and resolute attention to the duties of godliness, stir up the scorn and enmity of the world. As good men, by the grace of God, grow better, so bad men, through the craft of Satan, and the power of their own corruptions, grow worse. The way of sin is down-hill; such go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. Those who deceive others, deceive themselves, as they will find at last, to their cost. The history of the outward church, awfully shows that the apostle spake this as he was moved by the Holy Ghost.

And another quote from Adam Clark:

2Ti 3:12 -
All that will live godly - So opposite to the spirit and practice of the world is the whole of Christianity, that he who gives himself entirely up to God, making the Holy Scriptures the rule of his words and actions, will be less or more reviled and persecuted. “If religion gives no quarter to vice, the vicious will give no quarter to religion and its professors.”

Of course if you want to hear everything I said you can catch the podcast, but for here I will share the finial point.

Living as a Christian is somewhat difficult today as far as persecution goes. It happens now and then, and to some maybe more often. Serious persecution takes place with the one who is on the front lines presenting the Gospel. As you read these quotes you can see that even in the sixteenth century persecution was alive and well. And so it will be as long as Christians are on this earth in our present state.
The Good News is that in verses 16 and 17 Paul goes right by the persecution so to speak and straight to the solution to the problem. He says:

2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is valuable for teaching the truth, convicting of sin, correcting faults and training in right living;
2Ti 3:17 thus anyone who belongs to God may be fully equipped for every good work. (Complete Jewish Bible)

Scripture and the study of it is the answer to persecution because it will equip you for every good work. By the renewing of our minds on the word of God we are transformed into the very image of Christ Jesus and we are fully equipped for every good work. That word “every” means just that, every, includes everything. There is nothing that can come at us that we aren’t fully equipped to handle. So if you are in the word daily, reading, studying, meditating and in Prayer with the Lord you are equipped!

Well now we see our faith come into play. Or better yet now that we want to live a godly life united with the Messiah Yeshua, that faith which comes from being equipped in God’s word will be directly applied to our good works that conquer evil.

Rom 12:21 Do not be conquered by evil, but conquer evil with good. (CJB)

I hope you have the time to catch the podcast also, I tend to ramble a bit but I think you will get the point.

God Bless YOU and have a wonderful day with Jesus our LORD
