Moral relativism has been a thing over the past decade or so. It tells us there are no absolutes. Truth is whatever it is to you and that doesn’t need to affect what I hold as truth… Drop a rock off a cliff and it will fall down 100% of the time, it will never float upward. Gravity is a reality, it is true. God is as evident as gravity, in fact, gravity is proof of God. The fact that water is wet, our natural atmosphere isn’t toxic, the sun rises every morning, and birds fly south in the winter, are all signs pointing to our Creator. They further testify that He is awesome, dependable, consistent, imaginative.
Today’s text tells us we get to know Him by studying the world He created. If we love what He’s made, why would we want to reject a relationship with Him in favor of a lie? Yet, humankind as a whole has done exactly that. The result is the mess we now find ourselves in: wars, division, perversion, anxiety & death.
Resist the lies and embrace the God who made you.
