It has been the theme of books and movies and something nearly everyone has wished they could be at one time or another. It is the ability to become physically invisible. But now scientists claim this long-time fantasy may soon become a reality!
Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, plan to publish their findings this week. Amazingly, they state that they have been able to actually cloak three-dimensional objects using artificially engineered materials that redirect light around the objects.
Previously, the process was limited to working on only very thin two-dimensional objects.Again, the ability to make things invisible has staggering implications both for good and also potentially for evil. And it is hoped that those who make this dream a reality will use the technology for positive and beneficial purposes.
But the Bible speaks of this subject in the physical and spiritual realms. In Hebrews 4, the writer speaks to the unique ability of Scripture to penetrate into the deepest depths of the human mind and soul. Verse 13 reveals how nothing can ever become invisible to an all-knowing and all-seeing God. “And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.”
Despite this great truth, men have always attempted to hide from God when knowing they have not pleased Him. It happened at the outset when earth’s first human inhabitants tried to hide themselves physically after their great act of disobedience.Then at the other end of the human history, Scripture reveals that there will be those who will attempt, in vain, to hide themselves from the righteous judgement that is due them. “And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains, and said to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?" (Rev 6:15-17)
Sin is real as is God’s wrath upon it. (Romans 1:18) But the same holy Creator whose nature demands justice for sin, also provides justification for sinners! Paul described it repeatedly in passages like Galatians 2:16. “Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.”
The scientific community continues to amaze the world with striking discoveries using their God-given gifts and intelligence. But they will never invent anything to deal with human sin. It is God, and He alone, who has the exclusive trademark in that field – namely the shed blood and substitutionary sacrifice of the Savior.
“Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” (1 Peter 1:18)
Those who discover this redemption need never fear or hide from God, who through faith in His Son becomes their loving and forgiving heavenly Father.

Anthrax and the End Times
The government considers the anthrax scare case of 2001 closed. Following the wrenching 9/11 attacks, anonymous letters laced with anthrax were mailed to Washington politicians and others and were lethally handled by ordinary citizens. U.S. Army researcher Bruce Ivins was a troubled man with connections to Princeton, which was the envelopes’ mailing point. As the government’s investigation neared its end, a crush of evidence pointed to Ivins. To apparently avoid a trial, conviction and punishment, Ivins took his own life, depriving prosecutors of additional information. His suicide seems to substantiate the government’s claim that he was the one who sent the letters and that he acted alone.
Ivins’ motives for sending the letters appeared to be multiple and, in his own mind, reasonable. He had a hatred for those on the opposing moral side of social issues, and he also thought that the letters would enhance anti-anthrax research, which was his specialty. While under psychiatrists’ care, doctors noted an increasing mental instability in Ivins, and he had threatened to inflict violence on other researchers.
This biological case of fearful plague possibilities is typical of prophetic woes forecast by Jesus Christ, Paul and John. Christ’s end-time scenario regarding this is found in Matthew 24:7. "For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places." That these may be man-made is clear from Paul’s warning in Galatians 5:19-21. "Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissentions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God." These are not natural disasters or mere epidemics caused by unsanitary contagion. These are people acts arising from human sinning. "Sorcery," or witchcraft as the older texts have it, is "pharmakeia" in the original Greek, which is clearly chemical or magical deeds by human perpetrators.
Interestingly, Ivins was a churchgoer, and well wishers even declared that they’d see him in Heaven. We hope there was a last-minute repentance, but the Galatians text indicates that "sorcerers" (debauched pharmacists) will not inherit the Kingdom of God. In fact, end-time sorcery is a sin unrepented of according to Revelation 9:21. "And they did not repent of their murders or their sorceries ("pharmakeia") or their sexual immorality or their thefts." There is no evidence that Ivins showed remorse. In the polonium-210 killing of former Russian KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko in England in 2006, no one came forth with remorse. Drug growers, smugglers and dealers and most users invariably face prosecution with hardened hearts. Only the Holy Spirit operating through Christian witness can soften hard hearts.
In a world of declining morality with lethal chemical, biological and nuclear agents threatening all of us, we must have our spiritual security in Christ. Pandemics and epidemics may take untold millions into eternity as end-time prophecies foretell, and we must pray that government is diligent in preventing these. But in case of failure, the believer’s fall-back is 2 Corinthians 5:6-8, which promises, "So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord."

John Edwards and King David
Former presidential candidate John Edwards has confessed to marital infidelity. His repeated promise for a moral administration and multiple exhortations regarding national honor are doubly galling in view of his confessed extra-marital affair. This degrades respect for political officials in office now and those aspiring to govern. No believer showing the love of God ought ever to "rejoice in iniquity" (I Cor. 13:6), nor should any gloat if he be in a different political camp. This is clearly a scar on our political landscape, and we are all hurt and disappointed.
Our hurt must not avoid careful biblical analysis, however. This mess has shades of King David’s horrendous sin outlined in 2 Samuel 11 & 12. Bible students usually know this one by heart, but for those unaware of the story it is simply this.
While King David’s men were away across the Jordan River besieging Rabbat (modern Amman), he went to his palace roof at evening. Since the king’s palace was the highest residence in Jerusalem, he could easily spy on other dwellings. Looking down into a beautiful woman’s back yard, he lusted after her, had her brought to his palace and committed adultery. The resulting pregnancy was problematic since Bathsheba’s soldier husband was away with the troops at Rabbat.
So David sent word to his general, Joab, to send Uriah the Hittite home for a battle report and then off to have sex with his wife. It didn’t work since honorable Uriah, who evidently was a pagan convert to Israel, wouldn’t fill his natural desires even though David tried alcohol to loosen his morality. David’s final solution was to send him back and have him killed in a suicide battle. That didn’t work either, for God’s prophet Nathan confronted the wicked king and, as is usually the case, everything was revealed. If The National Enquirer doesn’t blow the cover, then God ultimately will.
While David repented, as found in Psalm 51, and was forgiven, the consequences of his actions remained. The child died, David had Uriah’s blood on his hands, and his surviving military men must have been demoralized. The King was also guaranteed endless family strife and violence (2 Sam. 12:11). His son, Amnon, raped his half-sister Tamar, whose brother, Absalom, then murdered Amnon (2 Samuel 13). Absalom inspired a coup and, as David fled, committed sex crimes in public view. At length, Absalom was killed as he hung by his hair in a tree, done in by Joab, who was privy to the original cover-up involving Bathsheba, and the King became a sobbing wreck. (Read all about it in 2 Sam. 15-18.)
What are the lessons in all this? John Edwards probably knew story of David and Bathsheba but didn’t take it seriously. Or, perhaps he, too, was so overcome with the deceitfulness of sin that he thought he could get away with a cover-up.
Satan does prowl about as a devouring lion as 1 Peter 5:8 warns. "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour." Hebrews 3:13 solemnly says, "But exhort one another daily, while it is called ‘Today,’ lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin."
Personal guilt, family shame, political hurt, national scandal and probably future legal action rest on the conscience of John Edwards. As someone said years ago, "A person can live it up for five minutes and not live it down for fifty years!"
This burden is too much for anyone to bear, and, while consequences can never be removed in this life, personal forgiveness is available through the cleansing blood of Christ. "But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin" (1 John 1:7). Edwards would do well to emulate the confessed sinner of Luke 18:13, "saying, ‘God be merciful to me a sinner’." He can be similarly justified, which means to be made in God’s sight as though he had never sinned.
In a tender postscript to David’s story, God never brought the matter up again against him. David did, but God didn’t. Thank God for his forgiveness offered to John Edwards and to all of us for whatever sins we’ve committed. Once we are forgiven, God says, "I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more" (Heb. 10:17).

McCain Promotes Independent Image
In a new commercial, Senator John McCain, is seeking to distance himself from the current Commander-in-Chief. The ad is in response to accusations on the other side of the aisle that a McCain White House would be a simple and precise rerun of the past 8 years. This has caused the Senator to further push his ‘maverick’ image to convince voters that he is an independent thinker and best equipped to effect the real change needed to fix a broken congress and a struggling economy.
Without question, politics is one tricky business. Those seeking office must somehow relate their adherence to their party’s base and platform. But they must equally appear to have the unique ability to follow their own heart and ‘do their own thing’ when circumstances dictate it and their conscience demands it.
In the spiritual realm there is a parallel and contrast to modern political campaign strategies. There are some that come to Christ in faith by agreeing fully with the basic tenets of salvation. They admit their own sin and guilt. They know Christ is God in the flesh. They believe in their hearts that He died in their place and rose again from the grave. And they fully trust in His ability to keep them secure and prepare for them a heavenly home. (Acts 2:21, Ephesians 2:8-9, 1 Peter 1:3-5)
But oddly, many of these same believers stubbornly retain a rigid independence in their daily lifestyles despite God’s many commands and warnings to the contrary. In summary, they also ‘do their own thing’ throughout their earthly journey. They give little, or no, time to the God who created them, loved them, died in their place, and who covets a true commitment and a deep personal relationship with them. Luke reveals in his letter that a choice between the two is mandatory and that there is no neutral or middle ground in spiritual matters. He states, "No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon." (Luke 16:13)
Then in Colossians 3:12-17 Paul lists several aspects of how those rightly related to God in Christ should live. Beginning in verse 12 of the chapter he writes, “Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.” Obviously this is all far beyond the reach of any Christian who willingly lives independently of God’s influence and control.
As politicians continue to straddle the party line fence while attempting to appear independent thinkers, Christians that truly understand and care about God’s will realize the futility of this difficult type of blend. Instead they know that the right and best way to direct one’s daily affairs, even if that should include the governing of a mighty nation, is a full dependence on God and the application of the principles outlined in Proverbs chapter 3 and highlighted by verses 5-6.
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."

Aliens Visit Earth?
We are not alone in the universe – at least according to one NASA astronaut.
In 1971 Edgar Mitchell became one of a very small and prestigious club. He and 11 others have been the only humans to physically set foot on the moon. Mitchell’s trip was part of the Apollo 14, a journey that has altered his beliefs on the existence of aliens from outer space.
Speaking on Kerrang Radio out of Britain, Mitchell recently stated that he is convinced the UFO phenomenon is real. The former astronaut grew up in Roswell, NM, the site where some feel the government covered up a crash of an alien ship in 1945. He maintains that this secrecy has been going on for some time and that some officials know that planet earth has been visited repeatedly by other forms of life. In addition to Mitchell’s views, it seems that several of our astronaut ‘moon men’ have developed certain spiritual and philosophical leanings due to their space travel and by gazing upon their own planet from that unique and privileged perspective.
Seeing the earth from space should especially create a sense of wonder and the Bible speaks in Romans chapter one about the majesty of the heavens. In verse 20 we read, “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse.”
As far as our not being alone in the universe, that is true on several distinct levels.
First, Paul speaks about the negative side as he instructed Christians for spiritual battle. In his letter to the church at Ephesus he wrote, “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." (Ephesian 6:11-12) The unseen spirit world is real but the forces of darkness are not ‘unidentified' to those who know and study God’s word.
On the other end of the spectrum, believers know instinctively from the heart that they are part of an exclusive club. The are never alone regardless of where their physical body may be. Jesus made this abundantly clear when he said, "And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever — the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans ; I will come to you.". (John 14:16-18)
Edgar Mitchell may, or may not, be right about the existence, or even the cover up, of UFO’s. On that issue, the jury is still out. For Christians, however, it is not about life on other planets, but new life in Jesus Christ. They are living proof that we need not be alone in the world, but can possess both salvation and the constant help and companionship of the Creator Himself.
