Proverbs 14:12 (NASB95) There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.
I don’t think we have every lived in an age where the deluge of information was also a deluge of opinion. Everybody has an opinion and the end result of living your life based on the best opinions of man is death. God went to a lot of trouble to give the Children of Israel a plan to go by. He started with the ten commandments. Putting God first, not worshipping life-stealing idols, not lying, not stealing, not coveting your neighbor’s wife or property are not just good ideas they are God ideas.
We must always test our opinions by the authority of God’s word. It is one of the ways we put God first. It doesn’t really matter what the opinion of the world is, it matters what God has to say about it.
Psalm 119:105 (NASB95) 105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.
God’s word will light the path of your life, but opinion will put you in the ditch!
Stay out of the ditch,
Pastor Randy
