Dr. Les Dennis from Nova Scotia recently published an insightful article which wisely and accurately summarizes the state of religious belief in our day. Dennis points out that in many circles there is a rejection of absolutes, which has resulted in the concept of no right and no wrong. He states that “our whole sense of morality is skewed.” He adds that in the church which is now emerging, while God is not done away with, doctrine and truth do not matter. He says that proponents of this philosophy are more concerned with personal experience than about whether the message of Christianity is true. He then points out that the difference between this new kind of belief and what Jesus actually taught is that it is the truth that makes us free. And I am reminded of our Savior’s words when He said, “I am the way, and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
