Saving the World


NOT BY THE WORLD'S STANDARDS
(Maintain courage, faith and confidence because everything you do matters. )

Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. Matthew 10:16

In your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.
I Peter 3:15-16

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons that we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
II Corinthians 10:3-5

CAPTIVATED MY GENERATION

THE EMINENT REALITY 

OF MASS STARVATION IN THE 1970's 



IN RESPONSE...

A determined man of faith and wisdom
Norman Borlaug...

 crisis that faced my generation

To succeed he was required to navigate through a tide of opposition that continues to this day. 

The man attributed with Saving Billions of Lives...

~ Norman Borlaug~ Occupation: Agricultural Scientist

and 1970 Nobel Peace Prize Recipient.

Born: March 25, 1914, Died at age 95 on September 12, 2009

Some of his quotes:

 "I now say that the world has the technology - either available or well advanced in the research pipeline - to feed on a sustainable basis a population of 10 billion people. The more pertinent question today is whether farmers and ranchers will be permitted to use this new technology? While the affluent nations can certainly afford to adopt ultra low-risk positions, and pay more for food produced by the so-called "organic" methods, the one billion chronically undernourished people of the low income, food-deficit nations cannot."
By developing and applying the scientific and technological skills of the twentieth century for “the well-being of mankind throughout the world”, he may still see Isaiah’s prophesies come true: “… And the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose… And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water…” And may these words come true!
