We are being brainwashed every day by what we watch on TV, until we too have the same ideas without realising it. We just dress it up on the outside so it looks more &#8220;Christian&#8221;!<\/p>\n<p>All these ideas are contrary to what the Bible teaches, and we must continually put the measuring rule of God\u2019s Word against them. It is God\u2019s standard \u00a0for truth; God\u2019s Word is true from the beginning and the Lord Jesus is the prime example of One who stood for the truth in every way!\u00a0 He was completely honest and open in every word, thought and action, and completely without sin. He is the only way to God, and the world says this is too narrow. \u00a0They say we must be more liberal and tolerant. Sin is NOT tolerant once it has a person in its grip\u2026it is merciless and cruel.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus said that the way to life is on the narrow road which only a few find, because the majority are not willing to follow God\u2019s rules. Common sense tells us that certain \u201cnarrow\u201d rules must be adhered to\u2026road rules must be followed to prevent carnage, football rules must be adhered to or there won\u2019t be a game, phone numbers must be correct or the right person won\u2019t be reached, and natural laws must be obeyed (fire will burn you, and if you fall from a height you will get hurt). Truth IS narrow!<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s make sure that we as Christians do not allow the world to \u201csqueeze\u201d us into its mould and way of thinking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The modern ideas of what Truth is, is that it is relative\u2026what feels right for you, is truth!
