Unchanging Truth or Shifting Shadows?

As a Christian, I know that truth to be True must be never changing.

“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows” (James 1:17).

This begs the question: If truth can change, is it really true?

Do we really want to make choices based on a truth that changes? That is the persuasion of fiery dart thinking, of course. And isn’t that where we are today? Tragically, public opinion has become a determiner of truth. Public opinion supports the concept that truth is determined by feelings. Truth today rides around on a train of feelings. If our feelings change, then we change trains!

Think about the ramifications of living life based on public opinion or our feelings. Where will we find peace, security, hope, etc.? What will a generation raised on truths that shift with the shadows look like?

Public opinion or our feelings do not determine morality, or right or wrong. God does.

One thought on “Unchanging Truth or Shifting Shadows?

  1. Jesus has told us that in the last days deception needs to be handled by the believers as a dangerous enemy. We can certainly see and hear how true that is in the present. We need to use the tools that have been gifted to us believers by the Holy Spirit. Put on the whole armor of God. Find that in Ephesians 6 vs 10-18. 1 John 4 vs 1-6
