The Empty Throne


"In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as they saw fit." ~ Judges 17:6

We live in a culture nowadays where everyone adheres to their own truth, morals, beliefs, etc. It's as if objective truth no longer exists. People will even deny truth when it's staring them right in front of their face.

But Jesus declared Himself to be both King (John 18:36-37) and Truth (John 14:6). Whether people believe it or not, there is one objective truth that we will never be able to escape: there is an all-powerful, all-knowing, omnipresent God that exists. The Bible says that, in the end, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that He is Lord (Philippians 2:10-11).

It's a dangerous thing when people start to think independently from God, rationality, reason, and logic. When no objective truth exists, the natural consequence is chaos and anarchy. But just like gravity exists whether we believe in it or not, God's Word is truth whether we believe it or not.

Don't fall into this generation's trap. Truth is NOT whatever we make it. Jesus is Truth (John 17:17) - point, blank, period.

God bless,
J.W.
