Scientists recently killed a 507-year-old clam named “Ming”. The clam was so named because it dated back to the Ming dynasty. Ming’s life finally came to an end when researchers opened up the clam to study it. The true age of the clam was not determined until it was examined after its death. Scientists expressed regret that they killed what is being called the oldest known creature.

The people who killed Jesus didn’t know what they had either.

“You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this.”—Acts 3:15.
