## Resource

Scientists say they have built a cell from scratch for the first time, creating a synthetic cell that can feed, grow, and replicate like a natural cell. While researchers stress that they have not created life, the breakthrough raises important questions about what this could mean for the future—and whether it should be done at all. As technology continues to outstrip our ethics, from AI to biomedical engineering, we are reminded that our greatest need is not simply scientific advancement but the wisdom only our all-knowing, all-loving Lord can provide. Our future as a nation is tied not only to innovation, but to spiritual awakening. About Denison Forum and The Daily Article Today's Daily Article was written by Dr. Jim Denison.
