2nd Corinthians 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
We are now at the very time of which Isaiah and the other prophets spoke, where light is exchanged for darkness, bitter is put in place of sweet, and truth is sacrificed in favor of error, and as a result, concepts of right and wrong which in former years were taken for granted and clearly understood are now clouded in a deep, and darkening mist of error, fueled, and backed up by philosophy.
What contemporary society accepts as being normal is now so far removed from God’s revealed will, that many persons are confirmed in erroneous patterns of thought and action, to the point where some are currently exhibiting great confidence in doing that which earlier generations would have recoiled from in former years.
Error has taken deep root in the consciences of the popular majority, and, because much of it is being lauded and fostered by persons in high places, it has now become risky, and even downright dangerous in some cases to speak out about it. Yet the servants of God must be found faithful while delivering Christ’s last message of mercy to a dying world, even if present truth may not bode well with political or social correctness. God has not called His servants to be popular, but instead, to be faithful to Him, to truth and duty.
Exodus 23:2 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
