Is Your Truth Relative To Your Culture?

Is your morality

a hodgepodge

of your own autonomous ideas?

 

Does your truth change?

 

Many people today

are picking and choosing

their own “truth”

 

They are like ships

tossed about

by the waves of societal trends

 

They embrace relativism

like trying to grasp an ever-moving object

in a culture going downhill

 

How confusing it must be

to choose your own truth

 

But you don’t have to!

 

God has laid the foundation

in His Word

 

He never changes

and His Words to us never change

 

Solid Truth

 

Security

is what you feel

when your foundation for Truth is secure

 

 

You will never feel secure

when your finite and fallible brain

gets to decide

 

I stand on Biblical truth

 

– Susie Stewart

 

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

– Hebrews 13:8 (NLT)

 

The grass withers, the flower fades; nothing lasts except the word of our God. It will stand forever.

– Isaiah 40:8 (VOICE)

 

What you say goes, God, and stays, as permanent as the heavens. Your truth never goes out of fashion; it’s as up-to-date as the earth when the sun comes up. Your Word and truth are dependable as ever; that’s what You ordered—You set the earth going. If Your revelation hadn’t delighted me so, I would have given up when the hard times came. But I’ll never forget the advice You gave me; You saved my life with those wise words. Save me! I’m all Yours. I look high and low for Your words of wisdom. The wicked lie in ambush to destroy me, but I’m only concerned with Your plans for me. I see the limits to everything human, but the horizons can’t contain Your commands!

– Psalm 119:89-96 (MSG)

 

Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and Your teachings are reliable.

– Psalm 119:142 (GW)

 

“My Hope is Built on Nothing Less”
by Edward Mote, 1797-1874
1. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

2. When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

3. His oath, His covenant, and blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When every earthly prop gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne!
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

  1. Hi! I just read your post on “God never changing” He is, He was and is to come! : )
    I saw a commercial tonight, which sounded really good. It was about how change is excellent, and you CAN change who you are, etc. etc. ( I think part of it was saying you can change into something better) Anyway, it was all about Change is good, and it bothered me a bit. So when I read your post, it is comforting to remember, that God Never Changes, and His word will always be our for real, unchanging truth! Thanks Susie: )

    • Hi Janel!
      Interesting how you saw that commercial around the time I blogged about this. Some change can be good, as we all know, but not with our truth. So thankful God is perfect and never changing. Thanks for commenting! 🙂
