the other chemicals found in the children have effects on the body, the focus of this research study was on the chemical, chlorpyrifos. Predominant studies on children and pesticide exposure conducted at a variety of universities, including the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, found “strong evidence that low doses of chlorpyrifos inhibit kids’ brain development,” (Philpott). This means that the chemical may slow down the brain development. A child’s brain continues to develop after birth and by…

Our situation with sin is like a baby with Aids. With that statement, certain questions must be asked. How does a baby get Aids? Does a baby stick needles in its arms or have sex? Better yet, did the baby do anything at all to catch the Aids virus or disease? The answer is that the baby did nothing but receive the Aids from the parents. It is the same with the disease of sin. We inherited the disease of sin from our parents, Adam and Eve. Unfortunately, we are not aware of a cure for…

In 1839 physicist Heinrich Wilhelm Dove…

The Sermon on the Mount also reveals a large extent of Jesus’ divine revelation, as his teaching surpassed anything in Israel’s history.

Why do I want to transfer? June 17, 2014, on a sunny Monday morning at about 9 am I walked in Mount Sinai hospital in Miami Beach, Florida.
