For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
1 Peter 1:23 NIV
The Living Word
The second episode of Keeping Canada Alive, a day in the life of our health system, features two families receiving respite care for children with complex illnesses, and a woman with MS wondering if shoulder pain signals a worsening illness. The six-part series is narrated by Emmy Award-winning Canadian actor Kiefer Sutherland. On May 6, 2015, more than 60 camera crews set out in 24 cities across Canada to shoot patients, their families and health-care providers at hospitals, clinics, doctors’ offices and in homes.

It doesn’t surprise me at all that modern atheists spend their time trying to poke holes in God’s word – it has ever been thus. Those who hate God, hate His Word, the Bible. That’s why the first question in the Bible, from the mouth of the serpent, is “Did God really say?” If the enemy of God is able to put doubt into the heart of God’s people about the word of God, he has won a spiritual victory. Don’t allow him to do put doubt into your mind about the veracity of God’s word, the Bible. Listen to what the apostle writes in 1 Peter 1:23: “For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.” What a wonderful description of God’s Word – living and enduring. This is proven by the many who have read God’s word and met Jesus, having their lives transformed forever. Here at Bible League Canada, we get constant reports from around the world about people whose lives have changed forever by reading the Bible in their heart language.
These have been words from the heart.
