“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” – John 14:6
Our nation, our culture, and our society increasingly seem to be spinning completely out of control. The utter moral chaos we are experiencing in the United States is in large part boiled down to a fight that is raging over who determines what is truth.
The most foundational and basic pillars in the history of civilization are now up for debate in our country. For example, there is a battle over what constitutes a marriage and there is also a struggle to define what a woman or man is. There is an all-out war over these basic universal truths that have always served as bedrock truths throughout human history.
Why is this fight taking place in the United States? Simply put, a great number of Americans have decided that Biblical truth has no authority over their lives and that they themselves are now the arbiters of truth. In other words, hypothetically speaking, they have removed the one and only objective source of truth, God Himself, from the throne and placed themselves upon it. America in a multitude of ways has now decided its definition of truth supersedes God’s truth that has been revealed to us through Scripture.
This is a recipe for serious cultural chaos and that is exactly what we are experiencing right now here in America. Until our nation decides that God alone is the source of objective and ultimate truth and that He alone determines what marriage, gender, and life are, we will only continue to go down a path of mayhem. As a state and nation, we must not only acknowledge God’s truth but also obey it if we desire to reap His blessings.
LET US PRAY…
Father, thank You, for giving us Your Word so that we may know the truth. Lord, we praise You and acknowledge that You are the way, the truth, and the life. Father, enable us to be effective advocates for You and help us Lord to pass legislation that honors You in this legislative session so that our Commonwealth will be a state that acknowledges You as our source of truth. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
