Think on these things

“Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” - Romans 12: 2

VAST numbers of people in traditional Christian nations and communities have started facing life from a dangerously flawed perspective. However well-intentioned, many of the criteria adopted and applied are having dire consequences, as God has warned. Examples abound and are reflected in dangers to life, freedom and safety. Remember how we used to think smoking was cool? Today drug culture is everywhere, and marijuana is domestically legal. Children grow up in a society where abortions are called ‘family planning’ and governments thrive and survive on the lies they derive and propagandise through world-wide false media.

In these circumstances, to live according to the views that God intended, whether in caring for body, mind or spirit, you require the courage to scrutinise your own attitudes and challenge the worldly conventions society sets. So, read the scripture above and measure your standards accordingly. To help change the world, start by changing the way you think.
