We live in an age when truth clashes with society and the laws of the land. Truth is: a heart beats at four weeks, but the law of our land is in opposition to that fact and doesn’t protect life. The world wants to do whatever seems okay. Truth is irrelevant. God is irrelevant. This is diametrically opposed to the Christian world view.
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning. 3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome a it.
John 1
Yeah, that’s not going to make the front page of USA Today because it’s the opposite of what the world wants to hear. They want to hear messages that will justify their behavior, not convict of sin. Satan is the prince here and he hates the truth.
They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
Romans 1:25
People don’t want to worship God if they’re focused on self and what makes self feel good. You can’t worship God and yourself. You’re going to hate one. Fall into sin and you start spending less time in God’s word because it might convict you. You don’t wanna hang around your Christian friends as much because you feel conviction. You know what you’re doing wrong, but you can’t stop it because it has a hold on you. That’s demonic. See my article on deliverance.
Hold onto your faith and cling to truth! We are only on this earth for a short time. Don’t fall into the deception of self-care, self-love, and the selfish roots it stems from.
This 2021 world is selfish. It’s all about me. Me me me is everywhere. When I was young in the 70s, a classmate got pregnant. I never saw her again. The sin was canceled. It’s not that way today. Today they will give a pregnant teenager a TV series.
Truth doesn’t mind analysis because it will be exposed as truth. Lies don’t like analysis because they are exposed as lies. The reason cancel culture needs to exist is because it is insecure that it is built on lies.
Martyn Iles, Australian Christian lobby
That is the heart of the matter. Covering up lies is the root of cancel culture. It’s not about freedom. It’s about suppression of truth!
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
Isaiah 5:20
Will you let yourself get canceled or will you stand for truth?
