Ever wonder why progressives incessantly attack God’s Word?
Well, if it weren’t for the Holy Bible, God’s incarnate Word to His children, by what standard would we live our lives? From what premise would we measure the principles of “good” and “evil”?
Now, I understand the question is inconsequential for those who theorize mankind evolved from a “big bang” in the universe. But, which requires more faith – the belief that man evolved from a cosmic explosion or that man was created by an Almighty God?
The Bible tells us in John, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” This scripture, while too profound for a man to rightly discern, explains not only the origin of mankind, but the principles by which God planned for His children to live their lives.
So, at this point in our earthly journey, what if those “words” were either removed or left to question moving forward?
The effect would be the same as uprooting a tree in a mighty wind. Without it’s securing roots, the tree would be blown any direction the wind would take it. It would seek sustenance and fulfillment wherever it may land.
My friends, this describes the modern-day, progressive movement and the need for discounting God’s Word in our lives.
Have you ever seen a liberal attack the Quran, the religious text of Islam, the Vedas, the writings of Hinduism, or even Tao Te Ching, the ancient text of Taoism? What makes the Bible so threatening as to draw relentless fire from liberals?
Through the years, I’ve observed numerous ways liberals attack the Bible. While some audaciously declare it to be nonsense, others are subtler, simply bringing to question certain portions of text. Understand, it doesn’t take a “theologian” to prey upon someone with little faith and convince them to question the story of “Jonah and the whale” or Jesus feeding 5000 followers with five loaves of bread and two small fish.
Of course, these events cannot be comprehended by man. They’re miracles!
I submit, if even one scripture from the Bible can be brought to question, we could never believe the others are the infallible, inerrant Word of God? And progressives know that.
Additionally, modern-day liberals seek to rebut certain principles of God’s Word by equating them to bias or prejudice. They often decry Christians as discriminatory or xenophobic when their religious beliefs aren’t inclusive of liberal passions. But Christians are the intolerant ones!
The entire premise of the progressive movement is standards should “adapt” with changing times. They present the Bible as antiquated and methodically challenge it, usually before a younger, less Biblically-rooted audience.
Liberals also use “desensitization” in their pursuit of change. They tenaciously test the “accepted norm”, gradually de-programming the population into a subliminal acceptance. If they can eventually gain an “inch,” that’s a win for a progressive. They understand inches equate to feet, to yards, and eventually miles.
God knew we would face these challenges. That’s why we must not allow God’s Word to be discounted. Knowledge of scripture and the provisions God’s made for us in our lives is essential to protecting our future.
So be steadfast and unafraid to stand firm, even in the face of ridicule. We are told in Romans, “There is therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”
As for the progressive movement, we already know they lose in the end. They just don’t know it yet.
But, we will all have the answers, soon enough. Just from different venues. So, keep the faith.
