Those who side with the majority voice and not with the Word of God are always wrong and courting disaster. (D.A. Carson)
Numbers 14 is a prime example from Scripture. The current condition of the USA is also an example. For too long, followers of Messiah, the Son of God, have taken the easy, non-confrontational path, going along with the majority rather than standing for truth. We must change and change now! This applies to many areas in our lives:
- Our politics
- Who we vote for and why – we should always put biblical values first when marking our ballot
- Our moral choices
- Our work lives, giving a pass to non-biblical views and questionable practices
- I’m sure you can think of more…
I agree that we must choose our battles carefully, but I, for one, have too often chosen the “safe” way. How about you? It is beyond time to “stand up for the truth!
Until next time…”May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom.” (Numbers 6:24-26)
