Moral Blindness

Do you ever wonder why the people in charge can't do anything right for once?

Do you remember the old adage that the definition of insanity is the continuing repetition of an action that has always resulted in disaster.

Where is good old "common sense?"

What's happened to the courage to do what's right?

Isn't there anyone out there who is willing to stand for principle?

The real question is, "Where is moral courage?"

The ability to perceive His truth is not found by unrighteous men -- men who have not received the gift of salvation and the accompanying ability to inderstand Spiritual things. Without the truth, they apply human "wisdom," with the result that we see every day on the news coming out of our Nation's capitol.

The Apostle Paul put it quiet plainly, in unmistakable language in 1 Corinthians 2:12-16 (KJV)

12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

It is this "mind of Christ" that we have taken for granted, in a land that was, from its earliest beginnings, guided by Christian men.

Our culture developed beneath a canopy of protrction, as the ubiquitous Spirit of God was spread abroad by a societal majority of Christian faith.

We have always been blessed by the presence of God's Holy Spirit. But sadly, we have begun to take our exceptional qualities for granted.

In the closing decades of the twentieth century, godless men came to power in increasing numbers.

Now in the twenty-first century, we seem posed to give up even the pretense of Christian faith.

We have gone insane!

The only hope is to find salvation by faith in Christ Jesus - ALONE.

It sure is a "Good Day To Fly!"
