GOOD THINKING 
How to Do Your Best with What 
you Got
1. IF YOU DON’T HAVE GOD, WHAT 
YOU GOT IS NEVER ENOUGH 
1 Corinthians 15:32b-34 
If the dead are not raised, "Let us eat and 
drink, for tomorrow we die." Do not be 
misled: "Bad company corrupts good 
character." Come back to your senses as you 
ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who 
are ignorant of God--I say this to your shame.

The Darwinian 
theory has cut 
men loose from 
God and set him 
drifting free in a 
universe without 
means or ends.
THE SEARCH FOR THE LONGEVITY 
GENE – PLOS ONE (SCIENTIFIC 
JOURNAL) 
• Universities of Luxembourg and 
Stanford 
• Genome of Supercentenarians – people 
older than 110 years 
• No gene responsible for longevity… 
• One remarkable case – pathogenic 
mutation (should be fatal at a high 
percentage)
ROMANS 1:18-22 
…since what may be known about God is plain 
to them, because God has made it plain to 
them. For since the creation of the world God's 
invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine 
nature--have been clearly seen, being 
understood from what has been made, so that 
men are without excuse. 
…Although they claimed to be wise, they 
became fools…

ISAIAH 55:1-3 
"Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and 
you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, 
buy wine and milk without money and without cost. 
Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor 
on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat 
what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest 
of fare. 
Give ear and come to me; hear me, that your soul may 
live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my 
faithful love promised to David.
ISAIAH 55:6-7 (NIV) 
Seek the LORD while he may be found; call 
on him while he is near. 
Let the wicked forsake his way and the evil man 
his thoughts. Let him turn to the LORD, and he 
will have mercy on him, and to our God, for he 
will freely pardon.

2. COME TO JESUS 
John 4:13-14 
Jesus answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will 
be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give 
him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will 
become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal 
life." 
John 6:35 
Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who 
comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes 
in me will never be thirsty.
3. KEEP YOUR EYES ON ETERNITY 
1 Corinthians 15:19 
If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to 
be pitied more than all men. 
Matthew 6:19-21 
"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, 
where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves 
break in and steal. But store up for yourselves 
treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not 
destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be 
also.
