8) This is a weird story that may not be a story---or may be. Over the past several months nine scientists or researchers connected to nuclear and high-level programs have gone missing. Now, kind of, a 10th, as a NM property manager to a high security campus has gone missing.

John 9:3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

I Corinthians 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
I Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached to the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Luke 8:17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
John 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

These are the verses in the Bible that speak to this idea of manifestation. I hear much from many circles these days about this and want to understand more of what it means for Christians.

We know that Truth (Veritas) is not simply a thing or a noble concept. Truth is a person, a divine person, Jesus Christ. He is Truth and the author of Truth. The work we do is for Him, through Him and in Him. https://www.veritasregnat.com/2026/04/09/why-support-for-truth-matters-so-much/

Holy Father, teach us your truths and guide us by your light. Amen.
