Belief Systems Drive Global Events
BY HENRY M. MORRIS III, D.MIN.
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. (1 John 2:16-17)
In the broadest sense, there are only two belief systems: theism and naturalism. One believes in supernatural influence on the affairs of men and as the foundation of purpose and order, the other does not. The vast majority of the world is theistic (though not creationist) in its worldview. Only the “civilized world” is arrogant enough to consciously exclude the supernatural from its thinking. But this is the key: “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). This is why we are clearly told, “Keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life” (Proverbs 4:23).
Underlying all, of course, is the great Adversary, who seeks to draw the worship of all men to himself and replace all “gods” as the god of this world. Satan is driven, like “a roaring lion,” to devour all who oppose him (1 Peter 5:8). The real war is a spiritual one (Ephesians 6:12-13). President George W. Bush was correct when he insisted that the campaign against modern terrorism will be “unlike any other we have ever seen.” It will be worldwide in scope, transcultural in impact, and years in the execution.
Will terrorists be eliminated and evil conquered? Not until Jesus Christ sets up His millennial reign. But we can “overcome evil with good” (Romans 12:21), and we can “reign in life” (Romans 5:17). Freedom is administered through truth (John 8:32, 36), and Satan, when resisted in “the faith” (1 Peter 5:9), will “flee” (James 4:7). HMM III

因為世上的一切,肉體的情慾,眼目的情慾,今生的驕傲,都不是出於父,而是出於世界。 世界和其上的情慾都要過去。惟獨遵行神旨意的,是永遠常存。 (約翰一書 2:16-17)
在最廣泛的意義上,世上只有兩種信仰體系:有神論和自然主義。 一種人相信超自然對人類事務的影響,並將其作為目的和秩序的基礎,而另一種人則不相信。 世界上絕大多數人的世界觀都是有神論的(雖然不是神創論的)。 只有在所謂“文明世界”裏的人傲慢到有意識地將超自然排除在其思想之外。 這就是關鍵:“因為他心裡怎樣想,他就成為怎樣的人”(箴言 23:7)。 這就是為什麼我們清楚地被告知:“要時刻謹守你的心,因為生命的事都出於其中”(箴言 4:23)。
當然,這一切的背後是因為一個強大的仇敵,他試圖吸引所有人崇拜自己,並取代所有“神”成為這個世界的神。 撒旦像“吼叫的獅子”一樣,驅使吞噬一切反對他的人(彼得前書 5:8)。 真正的爭戰是屬靈的爭戰(以弗所書 6:12-13)。 喬治·W·布希總統堅持認為打擊現代恐怖主義的運動將“不同於我們所見過的任何其他運動”,這是正確的。 它將是全球範圍的,跨文化的,而且需要長期不斷的執行。
恐怖分子會被消滅,邪惡會被征服嗎? 除非直到耶穌基督建立他的千年統治。 但我們可以“以善勝惡”(羅馬書 12:21),我們可以“在生命中作王”(羅馬書 5:17)。 自由是通過真理實現的(約翰福音 8:32, 36),只有當撒旦在“信仰”中被抵抗時(彼得前書 5:9),他才會“逃跑消失”(雅各書 4:7)。

- 2樓. 新天新地2022/05/11 07:36這個世界一切眼目的情慾,今生的驕傲都要過去,唯獨遵行神的旨意永遠長存。想像,有多少我們可以藉著戰爭,動亂,欺壓留下?只有那些在戰亂下的弱小無助後遺症留下。
今早靈修看見一句話:撒但最怕的,也是不會靠近人的,就是人有從主而來的喜樂。那從「裡面」而來 的活水泉源。與您分享。 - 1樓. 摸 象 或 (不?) 著 木目2021/11/25 12:36哦 ? ! My two cents worth ?
