In 2016 the Oxford Word of the Year was \u201cpost truth\u201d. Post truth is defined as \u2018relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IRONY<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This really struck me as ironic. Ironic in the sense that 2016 we hadn\u2019t come close to the dystopia currently on display today as it concerns post truth. In 2016 we were infants to this concept. After feeding on it for five years we have become raging pre-pubescent adolescents. The future of truth is bleak at best, and may fall out of our consciousness at worst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This subject, this concept, this \u201cideology\u201d is evident all around us every day. I was having dinner with a group of good Christian friends and the obligatory anti\/for-mask\/vaccine debate broke out. Everyone at the table was convinced (in a compassionate loving way) that they knew the truth. They each had their respectable sources and facts. They each had their gospel references. But yet they were on two sides of the same argument. Apparently God is both adamantly for and against all things related to COVID. These disagreements are creating wedges in the truth of the Gospel. The Gospel isn\u2019t a reference tool to win a temporal argument.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

James 1:26, <\/strong>\u201cIf anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man\u2019s religion is worthless.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rod Dreher wrote an interesting book entitled \u201cLive not by Lies, A Manual for Christian Dissidents\u201d. In it he spends the first half of the book relating the histories of all of the \u201cisms\u201d; Authoritarianism, Totalitarianism, Communism, Socialism, Marxism, Progressivism, Capitalism etc. He writes about how people gravitate to these ideologies based on the existence of an ideal state where everyone is cooperative. He goes on to say that the reality is that we live in a fallen world and the ideal state does not exist here on earth. Ideologies come and go, they all have a shelf life. They are all flawed by the human existence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is only one eternal Kingdom, that is the Kingdom established through Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Romans 12:2<\/strong>, \u201cDon\u2019t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God\u2019s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SHOW AND TELL<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As Christians do we tell but not show? Do we live based on emotions and worldly beliefs, while telling people of the power of God\u2019s redeeming grace? Do we live in fear that the other side is going to win, all the while professing faith that God is in control? Or do we speak of the reforming grace of God\u2019s word, while living it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most, not all, emotional bias have a foundation in fear. We fear that something will happen that will harm us or our loved ones. This fear grows into a belief that there is only one true protection from our fear. That protection, be it a person, place, or thing, becomes what we desire most. That desire starts to overshadow reality. We now have a fear that what we believe is in our best interest might not be in our best interest. This implicit bias drives us to sources that confirm or reaffirm our pre-existing position. We want to feel safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So ask yourself, is your fear based on worldly temporal issues or divine issues? Do you live your life avoiding contemporary fears created by current events or do you fear the eternal implication of your convictions? A health fear of the Lord is a fear worth having, all others will pass away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GOSSIP<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Proverbs 16:28<\/strong>, \u201cA perverse man spreads strife, and a slanderer separates intimate friends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are your conversations based on the steadfast word of God or the latest emotion driven opinions? Temporal politics and cultural attitudes will pass away, but God\u2019s word will survive forever. People DO live what they believe. Look at someone\u2019s life and you will see their convictions. People do not live a lie, they live the truth as they see it. What does your life show about you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patrik Bendas, son of the Czechoslovakian anti-communist Christian dissident Vaclav Bendas, states \u201cWhen we look at what is happening in America today, we see that you are building walls and creating gaps between people, for us, we are always willing to speak, to talk with the other side to avoid building walls between people. You know, it is much easier to indoctrinate someone who is enclosed within a set of walls.\u201d When we become hardened and opinionated we are actually fertilizing the ground that will eventually grow division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philippians 4:8<\/strong>, \u201cAnd now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We should approach every conversation with grace and compassion designed to build someone up, not create a new fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GRACE<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Good news is that as a Christian you have been saved by Christ grace. You have nothing to fear. Most contemporary issues are just that, contemporary. Years from now we will see that we overstated their implications. If we hold true to God\u2019s word and seek Him when in turmoil, we will be held safe in the palm of His hand. There will be hard times, and some of those hard times will change us, but God\u2019s love will remain steadfast and sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ephesians 4:29<\/strong>, \u201cLet no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
