How much would you appreciate to
live in a society or a country where the truth and moral law is relative?
(meaning one can do according to what he feels right). Some of the people
think it would be great if there are no moral boundaries and in general if
his/her views and actions wouldn't result in any serious consequences
- a life designed by his/her own to suit and justify ones choices. A world
of ambiguity or no moral framework is just unlivable.
The rich, the powerful, the
famous and in some cases the parents who have the power of luxury are
already modelling it and sadly pushing the children to jeopardy.
I am sure all are aware of the recent
news in India on the striking down of section 497 IPC which translates, “Adultery
is no longer a crime in India though it can be grounds for divorce” is welcomed in some cases, condemned
in other the mixed responses debated all over. This means you can live your own life however you want and likewise
your wife can by her choice and each of us don't have to be accountable
anymore. Click the news link below for further reference:
Once one begins to realize that
morality is not relative, that it cannot be grounded in biological evolution,
and that it cannot be fully explained on the basis of social conventions or
individual taste, one immediately feels drawn to the conclusion that God must
exist.
You don't have to be of any
particular religion to know the moral law and be able to distinguish between right and
wrong. God has already woven it in your heart. It is only when we try to shift
and push the boundaries in order to satisfy our selfish desires at the cost of
our loved ones and friends.
To understand it and lead a holy
life with integrity, we should have access to a God who is not
similar to us, but is supreme than us, infinite and who modeled a holy
life more than just being a good person.When we connect to Him the savior of our souls,
He would transform us to be a better person. C S Lewis says, "You
are a soul and you are given a body", you cannot afford to barter your
soul for cheap stuff and regret all your life. It is said in the Bible
"For what does it benefit someone to gain the whole world and yet
lose his life?" Think about it.
