No Moral Absolutes Means No Human Rights

We have the truth that human rights activists are everywhere who reject the truth that there are moral absolutes. Many of them have their idea of "Judge not and you will not be judged." As for the atheistic human activists, they tend to carry out Richard Dawkins' quote from the River Out of Eden which says that there's no good, no evil but only pitiless indifference. They think that there are no such thing as moral absolutes. So if they believe that there are no moral absolutes then why are they fighting for human rights which requires moral absolutes to determine them? After all, Dawkins just said there is no purpose but only pitiless indifference. Here's another problem with atheists' appeal to human rights. Why do they appeal to human rights when they claim that there are no moral absolutes and morality is relative? Human rights are determined by moral absolutes that God made. When God made His Ten Commandments and gave the whole Law - He made it as the s...

Parental Romans 10:3

Romans 10:3 talks about people trying to establish their own righteousness but they themselves are ignorant of the righteousness of God.  That is it is their OWN definition of righteousness and not the basis using God's HOLY Law which is the only measuring stick of right and wrong in society.  So how does parental Romans 10:3 happen?  It typically happens in the non-Christian home which can take form of the following: The first extreme is abusive parenting Sad but true but many parents in the Orient for a LONG time have been known to be abusive and controlling of their children.  This is where parenting standards are based on  their OWN rules rather than using the Bible as the basis for right and wrong.  That is they only discipline their children for their own convenience rather than because they have broken God's Law.  This is what some may want to call "Communist parenting", "Nazi parenting" or in short dictatorial parenting.  This als...

An Illustration of Relativism in the School Environment

Note: The event below is meant to be a bad joke against the relativist. So here's the situation, an atheist teacher quoted, "Class there are no absolutes.  There is no good, no evil, only pitiless indifference.  Everything is relative."  So in short, that is what is right and wring is dictated by the person.  So in short, he tries to make himself the final authority even if he isn't while making it not obvious. Here are situations that where he would really make a fool out of himself: Situation #1- At the school canteen, a student rudely cuts in line.  He says, "Can't you read the rules, teachers first?"  Then the student says, "Sir you said what is right and wrong is based on the person and I think it's right that students should go first." Situation #2- He is assigned to teach values education.  He proceeds to condemn the practices of human sacrifices and Islamic wars as unjust and evil.  Then a student says, "Sir didn't you ...

Wrongfully Criminalizing Christianity!

Image
It's a reality that Christianity is getting WRONGFULLY criminalized or being treated as a crime. Is it surprising? Not if you are truly a born again Christian saved by the grace of God. The Lord Jesus Christ said in John 15:18-25, "If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you . If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you . Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also . But all these things will they do unto you for My Name's sake, because they know not Him that sent Me . If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin. He that hateth Me hateth My Father also . If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they...

The Deception Was SO GREAT They Believe It To Be True!

2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 says, "And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved .  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusions that they should believe a lie : that they all might be damned who believeth not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness ." How true indeed.  First, time to list out things what truth is not: 1.) Truth is NOT based on whatever works.  This is the heresy of pragmatism.   Example: Major cults do operate at large scales and become mega churches but they do not preach the truth. Many of these cults including the Roman Catholic institution try to justify their wrongs by their popularity. 2.) Truth is NOT based on what is coherent and understandable. Example: There are many conspiracy theorist groups across the web and many of them go against each other.  One can always make up stories and post it as they see it.  It's painti...

Religious Relativism Debunked

There is the huge mistake when people are told, "Well we must accept all religions as true and what is right and wrong must be dictated by the religions people practice."  However is it really possible to just let people determine right and wrong based on religion?  The answer is no.  As usual, the Bible is clear that every tradition, practice, doctrine and moral laws of the church are based on God's Law, not man's laws.  Men makes their own rules mostly for their own convenience , God made His rules for the good of mankind.  There is a big difference between the two. Truth must always be intolerant to whatever cannot agree with it.  Just as said, if one religion is right, the other has to be wrong.  If Islam is the truth, every other religion should be a lie.  If Buddhism is the truth, every other religion should be a lie.  You can't really have them coexisting as one common doctrine because PLENTY of their doctrines clash with one...

The FOOLishness of Atheism

Image
Happy April fools! There's been no other time in history worth acknowledging atheism but April 1 and it's a sad thing really that people choose to reject there is a God. Psalm 14:1 says, " The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God . They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good." So how foolish is atheism. Atheists say, "Thou shalt not bear false witness Christian!" when their system is in fact nothing more than a bunch of lies, God is no delusion and that intelligent design is not a magic wand argument. Still they insist Christians are liars, frauds and responsible for all the mess the world is into. Here are just some things noticeable: Note: This entry is not meant to create anger against atheists but atheism. The atheist must take time to consider the fact that God is still willing to forgive them while they are still alive, only if they let Him. We are here to hopefully soften their hearts but ...

Misapplying Love One Another!

There is no doubt that the Lord Jesus taught His disciples to love one another which can be seen in John 13:34 and it's a command for ALL to follow. However it has been misapplied by crooked modernists and ecumenists as a means to stop Christians from ever criticizing other people's religion. They go as far as saying it's a wicked hate crime and that they don't love other people when they do it. Many of these crooked modernists claim to be Christians when they are not. They do not realize that when Jesus attacked the Pharisees' religion, He meant business ! God's Law was to be obeyed, it was His way or go the highway! God's truth is absolute and it's the only standard of right and wrong that can be trusted. Sadly the world has swallowed the view of relativistic morality . Well before everything else, they misrepresent Jesus Christ as a Person who accepts their religions, that it was the will of Him that all religions should go together but that is...

What's Wrong with Atheism?

It may not yet be April 1 or national atheist's month but, oh well, atheism is still creeping all year round and this blog might have topics related to more on atheism this April as well as Holy Week topics.  Anyway it's time to present what's wrong with atheism.  As Psalm 14:1 says, "The fool saith in his heart, There is no God ..." and Proverbs 12:15 calls the fools to be wise in their own eyes.  Since the atheist believes there is no God, he/she is a fool who is wise in his/her own eyes. Here are some of the basic beliefs of atheism: There is no God or Devil or any supernatural beings The supernatural is but a fantasy for children Life is an accident Man is an evolved animal (note: not all evolutionists are atheists, Charles Darwin was NOT an atheist) Miracles cannot occur A materialistic view of life Ethics and morals are relative according to their point of view So far, the atheist today would actually be using several atheist top lead...

Christians Falsely Accused of Doing Hate Crimes

Image
John 13:35 tells people to love one another. Sadly, it has been misapplied and twisted by sick and vile people. By the way, Isaiah 32:5 says, " The vile person shall be no more called liberal , nor the churl said to be bountiful." To be liberal means to be generous but vile persons have chosen to take the word "liberal" to describe their acceptance of evil just as homosexuals have used the word "gay" meaning "happy". Homosexuals should NEVER be called gays just as people who sin all they please should never be called liberals in the first place. So what's really going on? Looking at it, people can't really see what love really is and true love DOES NOT rejoice in iniquity but in the truth of the Gospel (1 Corinthians 13:6). The Lord Jesus loves the lost sinner so much that He is NOT going to water down the Gospel, tell them the truth about their sin and their need for Him and He is NOT afraid that the lost sinner will be upset.....

Reasons People Have for Rejecting the Lord Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior

Image
Please DO NOT make the mistake that guy made above! So far it would be wise to discuss some reasons (and more to come) to why people reject the simple Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Here are some reasons: False religion is the NUMBER ONE killer.  Many people today have their religion but not Christ. That religion is FALSE if it goes against the Word of God. Jesus warned in John 5:43, "I am come in My Father's Name and ye receive Me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.". That's why Christians definitely have EVERY reason to condemn EVERY religion that opposes Christianity and telling their followers the good news in Jesus Christ. Should it be mentioned that false religion has become a lucrative business? Many false religions are involved in the sales of occult items like graven idols and lucky charms, indulgences (prayers for the dead) and even dangerous books. Also, people jump from one cult to another in hopes of getting prestige...

Moral Relativism Debunked

Image
In the study of ethics, there is the term relativistic morality or otherwise relativism which is a system that what is true depends on certain demographics such as self, culture and religion ignoring the fact that contradictions CANNOT agree with each other as Amos 3:3 says, "Can the two walk together except they be agreed?". That's right. The truth can NEVER coexist with a lie. To accept all religions as true means there is no differentiation between the truth and the lie. However Romans 10:4 says, "For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God." and there are REALLY various consequences. which will be shown below So how does moral relativism work? Here are some of the ways how man's own thinking works and what moral codes they have invented: 1.) Manmade religion- To determine right and wrong by religion would be like this....
