I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Monday morning, the 13th of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to the Gospel of John 1:1-4:

”In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God (that’s Jesus), and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.”

Wow, I just love that scripture folks! You have no idea how much I love that Scripture! That’s why I love the Bible so much, because Jesus Christ is the Word and when somebody says to you, ”Show me this Jesus you’re always talking about, I can’t see Him,” give him a Bible because Jesus is the Word.

I want to say to the younger people, this Big Bang theory, it doesn’t hold anything at all. It’s a lie, I’m telling you, a lie from the pit of hell! They’ll tell you that this whole beautiful universe of ours started by some chemical explosion. I want you to ask them a question, ”Who made the chemical explosion?” And they’ll say to you, ”And how can you prove that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” You can say, ”Because the Bible tells me, “In the beginning…” He was there in the beginning with His Father.” So that holds a lot more water than talking about some big explosion. In the beginning, “I Am” was there. He’s always been there and He always will be there.

Now, I’m not a scientist, no, no, I’m a farmer, but I want to tell you, I defy any scientist to prove to me. We’ll go for a walk into the field and I’ll show him spring. It’s spring here on the farm at Shalom and the leaves are coming out on the trees that have been dormant right through the winter. I see a newborn calf, I see the wild animals are breeding at the moment, it’s a wonderful time of the year, but every season is a wonderful time of the year. You know why? Because Jesus made it all. He made it all, from the beginning.

So, Jesus bless you today as you celebrate the wonderful truth that in the beginning was the Word and His name is Jesus Christ.

God bless you and have a wonderful day,
Goodbye.
