One problem we face many times is a malfunction of our memory. We remember what we are supposed to forget, and forget what we should remember.

God says, “Yours sins and your iniquities will I remember no more.”

Yet many Christians are shackled with the memory of sins that God already has forgotten.

Paul said, “Forgetting those things which are behind” and yet many are chained to failures and mistakes of the past.

We need a poor memory when it comes to sins that God already has forgiven, buried and forgotten.

Question: Where do you find Saint Valentine’s Day mentioned in the Bible?

Answer: You won’t find it mentioned in the Bible. This might disturb some people who want every custom they celebrate to be in the Bible. Others may be glad to know that they are not required to buy a Valentine card. Although this may not be the wisest excuse to use for forgetting your sweetheart.

Some religious systems do not require that every belief or practice be mentioned somewhere in the Bible. To them, church tradition is just as binding as a text of Scripture.

By George W. Smith

Men today believe in a little God and a big humanity. Man is taking the place of God.

When you look at the inventions and progress of man, you feel that man is outgrowing God. Man is being glorified and God is being forgotten.

But God is a great sovereign God. 

When David surveyed the handiwork of God he was made to exclaim, “What is man that thou art mindful of him ...” (Psalms 8:3-4). 

Consider some ways in which we see the greatness of God in the Bible.

Question: I have had deja vu experiences. Are they proof that I was alive in a previous life?

Answer: The deja vu experience does not mean you were alive in a previous life according to the Bible or most psychological theories.   Some believe that those weird sensations we have like we have been in a place before even though this is the first time we were there proves they existed in a previous life. Deja vu are French words meaning “already seen.”
