GOD'S WORD IS FINAL

The Word of God is my standard and nothing else can take its place as the plumb line. God's word is the last word. I believe this and this then dictates my actions. Today there is no standard the world can look to contain its waywardness. All is relative and nothing is fixed. This means that boundaries can be pushed to any limit as there is no limit. This makes it difficult to then make decisions based on ethical issues as morality is relative to the context. Some cultures allow incest while others reject it. How does one culture impose its values on another. This is the battle that is going on in all facets of life. The Muslims think they have the truth and want to introduce sharia law. The west opposes this as feral but tries to accommodate and in this process compromises and isolates a section of society. What was once taboo is no longer so. What has changed? Influences have changed and the word of God has taken a back seat. When this happens the foundations of society begin to crumble and in this process everything else begins to crumble and die. Only a Holy Spirit revival can stem the tide of destruction and halt the process of decay. Lord come and be my filter that I may stay true to your word.
