Did you know that there are some people who believe that everything we know as reality is just a computer simulation? There are some people who believe that some advanced civilization is so far beyond our capabilities as a human society that they have programmed us into their own simulation.[1] In other words, nothing that we know as real is real.

Beloved, 1 John 5 leads us beautifully from regeneration, faith, obedience, assurance, perseverance, and eternal life. These are not six separate roads. They are connected truths showing us what God does when He saves a sinner and how that saving work continues throughout the Christian life. God regenerates, the regenerated believe, faith produces obedience, obedience strengthens assurance, the believer perseveres because God keeps him, and all of it rests upon eternal life in Jesus Christ.

Brothers and Sisters, when you begin wondering whether you are strong enough to make it to the end, remember where John points us. God gave the new birth. God brought us to faith. God produces obedience. God strengthens our assurance. God preserves us so that we persevere. And God has given us etern

Loneliness is one of the wounds the fall left on us. It is the gap between the way God made us to live and the way we live now. The church is called to see that gap, to feel it, and to love the people who fall into it.

"It is not good that the man should be alone." God spoke these words in the garden, before He made Eve. They still stand (Genesis 2:18). We were made for one another. That is how God built us. Yet we live after the fall, in a world where real closeness often feels just out of reach. Eccles

As I was driving in my car today, listening to music from my homeland, something happened that music often does—it reached into a part of me that I had almost forgotten was there. Suddenly, I found myself reminiscing about Okinawa. The music brought back memories, feelings, sights, sounds, and moments from a place that will always hold a special part of my heart. I was remembering the food, the people, the festivities, and certain places that are familiar to me. I was remembering what it felt like to be there. And before I knew it, I had that familiar twinge of homesickness.

What exactly is homesickness?

Are you longing for Heaven? Do you ever feel homesick?

Few subjects are more uncomfortable for Christians to discuss than church discipline. In a culture that tells us to mind our own business, avoid uncomfortable conversations, and never judge anyone else, the biblical command to confront unrepentant sin can seem harsh—even unloving. But 1 Corinthians 5 gives us a very different picture.

Dan and Micah tackle another misunderstood verse and one that is often taken out of context. Are children who are raised in a Christian home guaranteed to come to faith when they are older? What does this verse truly mean?

Few convictions run deeper in the pro-life movement than its care for the mother. It has built pregnancy centers, staffed the hotlines, and opened its homes, and it has insisted, rightly, that a woman in crisis is someone to be loved. That care shapes its laws as well, and in one particular place it shapes them in a way few in the movement have examined closely enough.

The movement holds two convictions about the mother, and it holds them both with a good conscience. The first is that a woman who ends the life of her child has murdered her child. The second is that a woman who conceives a child should carry that child to birth. Both flow from a single certainty, that the child is real and the child is hers. Take the first conviction at its word and a plain question follows. If a woman who aborts her child has in fact murdered her child, should she be treated as a murderer or not? The movement flinches from the question, and it has rarely stopped to ask why.
