Some claim the family is outdated and must be radically redefined—but that’s a false conclusion. While the world has changed, the essential role of the family has not. As sociologist Carle Zimmerman argues, the family still educates, protects, disciplines, and shapes lives—often more than any other institution. Scripture affirms this: the family is God-ordained, older than church or state, and central to human life. It has survived every crisis in history and remains the foundation of society. The family isn’t finished—its critics are. When we lose the family, we lose touch with life itself.

In Shakespeare’s Othello, the line “Chaos is come again” reflects more than personal turmoil—it signals the collapse of the moral and social order. In Shakespeare’s time, rooted in biblical teaching, marriage was seen as a reflection of Christ and the Church, the very foundation of society. Adultery wasn’t just a private betrayal; it was an attack on the structure God ordained. That’s still true today. When we break the marriage covenant, we don’t just wound a spouse—we damage the order God intended. Our lives, especially our marriages, either uphold His order or invite chaos.

Modern thinking often treats the underdog as automatically innocent—but Scripture says otherwise. Leviticus 19:15 warns us not to show bias, whether for the poor or the powerful. Righteousness isn't determined by status, race, or discrimination—it comes from faith and obedience to God. Sin is universal, and all are accountable before Him. Justice must be based on God’s Word, not on appearances or social standing. As Jesus said, “Judge righteous judgment” (John 7:24).

Many today demand a cleaner world while living filthy lives—dropping trash, ignoring personal discipline, yet blaming others for pollution. Scripture speaks to this hypocrisy: “There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness” (Prov. 30:12). True uncleanness begins in the soul. When we reject God and live for ourselves, we become trashy people—regardless of our words or wealth. Adam's sin trashed Eden, and unless we repent and let God cleanse us, we too face judgment. Clean lives begin with clean hearts.

A professor recently shared how shockingly ignorant college students are about history and religion—some confusing Mohammed with the pope or Peter as a Jewish god. But worse than the ignorance was the indifference. Their only moral rule? “Don’t hurt people”—a vague, self-serving standard rooted in humanism, not truth. Scripture teaches that wisdom begins with fearing the Lord and learning His Word. Without that, knowledge and morality collapse into selfishness. Humanism may claim to love humanity, but it breeds arrogance and moral chaos. Real wisdom starts by turning back to God, His instruction, and His truth.

Across once-peaceful towns, crime and moral decay are growing—but stricter laws won’t solve it. The real problem lies in the hearts of people. Laws can’t stop theft or porn if sin is welcomed inwardly. What we need isn’t just legal reform but a spiritual transformation—a shift from humanism to true Christianity. Real change begins not in courts or capitols, but in our own hearts. The Bible, not flattery, shows us who we are—and who we’re called to be. Look there first. That’s where the needed change starts.

A nurse in a major city reported that, in two years of emergency cases, only once did she hear a patient pray before surgery—despite most being church members. Instead, there was only fear and profanity. This reveals a deeper issue: many live as though God doesn’t exist. Profanity isn’t just foul language—it’s living apart from God. When we treat life as secular, ignoring God's Word, we misuse our very purpose. Profane living is choosing separation from God—the source of life—and that leads only to death. It's time to root out the profane and live fully under God’s rule.

When power poles first brought electricity to farms, they were seen as symbols of progress and blessing. Today, many see them as eyesores—forgetting the light, water, and growth they represent. This shift reflects a deeper issue: a lack of gratitude. Ungrateful hearts see only flaws, never blessings. But Scripture calls us to thankfulness—to recognize all we’ve received from God and others. True conservation and progress begin with gratitude. Grateful people don’t tear down—they build up.
