How Do We Know What is Right and Wrong?

Justin & G5 Episode 194

Should mankind be in charge of morality? Is it wrong to rule by the collective strong? Easily we can conclude this isn’t always righteous, especially judging by the fact mankind has engaged in conflicts, wars, genocide, land grabs, cheating, lying, stealing, and the suchlike since they ever thought to right down some form of historical record. 

Is there something bigger and better than ourselves to use as a measuring stick? Some greater power with which to aspire and regard? Obviously, this podcast will advocate for the living God, who is capable of powerful and terrible things. As mankind was made in His image, we too are capable of wonderful and terrible things. 

Self-control seems to be the aspirational maturity for morality. If mankind is able to have self-control in harnessing our instincts, the world would be a better place. Mercy, kindness, and love abounding makes a society aspirational, but sadly, unobtainable. This is after all a beautiful terrible world. 

The promise for relief is found on the pages of the Bible. There is a hope promised to those who desire it. A free gift of salvation for a renewal of times to come. Where all horrible things are removed, and the future isn’t bleak.
