How wonderful it is to know that the gospel of Jesus Christ was not contrived in the thoughts of a mere mortal man. If it were so, then we would be hopelessly lost, and the remedy for our evil thoughts would only become conjectures that would lead to greater corruption. This is the result of all who reject Biblical authority today, for man’s thoughts continually change. Apart from the unchangeable truth of God’s living word, man’s wisdom concerning God is built upon the principles of his own imagination. His conscience is continually being conditioned by what he sees and hears daily, and he becomes his own God and does what seems right in his own eyes. He takes the moral precepts inscribed upon his mind as an image-bearer of God and lowers them to justify his actions and satisfy his immoral thoughts. Though eternity is woven in the fabric of his nature, and he sees all the hidden attributes of God in all of creation, he suppresses that truth. He allows the fallen passion that has been perverted by sin to become the driving force of his own will, and the temple of His body becomes the playground of wickedness and the dwelling of demons.
