When The Foundations Are Being Destroyed

“When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?”  (Psalm 11:3)

What we believe about the world around us shapes everything about our lives, and determines our behavior, then our behavior determines what we become, and that has a direct effect on the direction of our life, the same is true of a country or the world; that they are largely shaped by the values we believe. But the problem is, we’ve bought into three very destructive philosophies that have replaced truth in our lives:
=>  Individualism (love for ourself):  We buy into the lie that we’re the only standard for our lives, It didn’t work well then, and it doesn’t work well today.
=> Secularism (God is unnecessary): You can summarize this in three words: God is unnecessary. In the past half-century, we’ve been systematically removing God from all areas of our lives — from schools to the government to the media. We’ve basically relegated God to Sunday mornings, if we even consider him then. 
=> Relativism (there are no absolutes): That’s when we’re told that there are no absolutes—what’s true for you may not be true for me. It’s a great way to live if you don’t want any guilt. If you don’t measure up to God’s standard, you just change the standard. It’s both illogical and irrational, but it’s highly prevalent in our world today The consequences as a society and for us as individuals for falling for these cons is staggering. Without a commitment to truth and a commitment to the authority of God, our culture is crumbling, and our moral collapse. Hallelujah, God bless
