How do we estimate good
and bad? We all like to justify our acts and emphasize that our values are
worth talking about. Moreover, in today’s world this particular ideology, “My
bad is not as bad as your bad therefore my bad must be good” is widely
believed and spoken about. Take for example the politicians, bureaucrats
and government systems, how good one government is or how good one particular
party is measured by the level of corruption compared to the ruling of the
previous government or political system.
If you notice most of the time even people are biased in their opinions and shut to facts however accurate or appealing it may be. As long as people are part of a majority, it appeals them. How are we going to process it? I want to present to you the yin yang model of the Chinese philosophy, that says, in every good there is a bad present and similarly vice versa. We are not completely exempted from the overpowering evil of the world unless we have the assurance of our sins being forgiven (not by works but by faith) and attained salvation by the almighty God. God in the Bible says, "He who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved". Only He can transform us and exhibit our goodness. Our best goodness can be selfish with concealed agenda.
Today we live in an age
where people have an audacity to use the name of God to oppress, humiliate, use
slogans and violate the rights of others. Why don't people attempt to live in
harmony? Could we consciously promote brotherhood, peace and harmony? It
definitely will do much good than to fall prey to the motives of politicians
and one's who want to divide us based on our creed, caste, race and status. We
are children of God and may His peace surpass humanity.
