Language is a powerful tool used to mislead, deceive, and brainwash. And our present culture is a perfect example.
Tolerance once meant treating people fairly even when you don’t approve of their beliefs. It now means approving of lifestyles that violate Scripture.
Hatred once meant saying or doing cruel things. It now means believing God’s Word about sexual morality.
Children were once people who weren’t wise enough to choose their bedtime or their diet. They’re now wise enough to decide their gender.
Gender was once defined as male and female, based on scientific fact. It’s now defined by anyone and everyone based on fiction.
Mental health was once defined as accepting reality and finding peace in our circumstances. It’s now defined as feeling happy no matter how foolishly or selfishly we behave.
Don’t be brainwashed, dear Christians. Be careful to base your view of tolerance, hatred, children, gender, mental health—and everything else—on God’s Word.
“See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.” Colossians 2:8
“The
wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness
and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness.” Romans 1:18
“Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient.” Ephesians 5:6
