Popular “science” claims that all of life evolved out of nothingness, and that the earth has successfully adapted itself through millions of years of history,
Yet, also aims to convince us that the planet now desperately needs mankind’s intervention in order to survive
We live in a culture that largely shuns the concept of committed relationships in favor of things like “MyFans” and “Friends with Benefits,”
Yet, where people chronically struggle with feelings of alienation and abandonment
We live in a society that touts the virtues of tolerance and inclusion,
Yet, where people routinely and openly attack and condemn anyone with a dissenting perspective
We live in a time with more medicines and treatments than ever before,
Yet, we find ourselves as unhealthy as we’ve ever been
We have a greater awareness of, and more resources for mental illness than any society before,
Yet, we are amongst the most medicated, depressed, and suicidal people on the planet
We live in a country filled with “Christian” churches, which feature more teaching than ever before,
Yet, the fruit of these efforts looks nothing like Christ (Rom.8:29)
We imagine that a world without boundaries and morality would result in Utopia,
Yet, all of human history indicates that it would be like an untamed jungle
Such is the wisdom of men (1Cor.3:19)
Always trying to gain their lives (Matt.16:25)
And following the way that seems right to them (Prov.14:12)
But narrow is the way that leads to life,
And only a few that will find it (Matt.7:14)
