Romans 12:2 NRSV: “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
As humans, God has endowed us with the gift of discernment. I believe God puts good people in key positions, and wants us to use our brains to figure some of this out!
As believers, we first accept a couple of truths:
The Bible doesn't contradict itself, and
God's character doesn't change - his morals are etched in stone.
So do not be deceived by the trends of the world; a lot of it will be wrong, non-conforming to God's ways! Instead, use your God-given mind, and when presented with challenges, ask yourself, “What would Jesus do?” If you're living in harmony with the Lord, you'll have hope in this world and in the next!
Blessings and safety to all as we remember the birth of Jesus!
