THE GREATEST COMMISSION:
(18) And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, All authority is given to Me in Heaven and in earth.
(19) Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
(20) teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:18-20
The Human condition sometimes called the Human Experiment is a multiplex of emotional dynamics. Humanism is the religion of the New Age. Subjectivity of the mind is the new paradigm for defining oneself and pushing that subjectivity upon others. What is subjectivity?
The definition is : peculiar to a particular individual : PERSONAL *subjective judgments* (2) : modified or affected by personal views, experience, or background *a subjective account of the incident* b : arising from conditions within the brain or sense organs and not directly caused by external stimuli *subjective sensations* c : arising out of or identified by means of one's perception of one's own states and processes.
Simply put subjectivity is one’s own view made up of one’s own personal views or proclivities. In other words; subjectivity is not based upon objectivity but on one’s emotions. The evidence of reality doesn’t matter to those whom are dependent upon their own subjective impulses. Why is this important and relative to those who represent Christ in a fallen world? I have taught in times past; kill the root kill the fruit.
First: we use the principle of defining the problem; then dissecting it practically and then we apply scriptural principles to replace it. Most people do not realize they’re living in the subjectivity of their own minds; why? The unregenerate mind cannot perceive the reality of anything other than its own personal world view based upon personal emotional leanings which are based upon the works of the flesh.
Subjectivity is the root of prejudice, sexual preference, violence, hatred, distorted love, etc. etc. This is a problem and the nature of humanity without Christ. We must look at the world through the eyes of the rock solid truth of the gospel. Within the pages of scripture we can find a principle to counter every subjective view of the human mind and emotion. Are minds and emotions bad in and of themselves? No. Yet without the outside guide of absolute truth to transform and conform the mind it is destined to self- annihilation; which is so prevalent in the world today.
One only has to look at the world to see the dire straits of emotional impulses which is deteriorating it systematically. The perversion of the mind and emotion is being encouraged by worldly mentors who are also overwhelmed by their personal realities and lifestyle preferences. These models of moral menace delight in the degradation of our society calling it good and criticizing anyone who stands for what is good and holy. Yet, the fact remains that the lust of the flesh is insatiable and the journey to fulfilling it only leads to more demented behavior which is finally accepted in the world as normal instead of perverse.
God has made himself real to everyone and within the heart of men is the reality that there is something greater than themselves; but Adam’s one act of sin cast sin upon every succeeding generation. Yet within the farthest recesses of the world people worship a (god) but not the God. Modernity has brought with it the denunciation of God and replaced him with reason and logic (although without God there is no reason or logic) this is where subjectivity has an anchor in societies around the world beginning with the so-called age of reason. The New Thought revolution was the seedbed of the modern humanism movement and the consequences of that movement are evident today as we see the debauchery of godless societies. God warned us of its impending consequences from the time in the Garden of Eden. The Holy Spirit through plenary breathed truth into the Apostle Paul as was penned in Romans.
(21) Because, knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, neither gave thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.
(22) Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
(23) and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.
(24) Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves;
(25) who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. Romans 1:21-25
Brethren the world is in need of an anchor of truth; not a false reality based upon the promptings of the flesh. It is said in the world that perception is truth. The fact is perception leads to perspective based upon objectivity, subjectivity, or proclivity. The world is filled with false religion, false politics, and false paradigms; the only hope the world has is Christ Jesus; he is the way, the truth, and the life.
This age is coming to an end; Jesus is coming soon; the only truth that assures us a place in eternal ecstasy with a loving God is the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is the solution to the pollution that is running rampant in the world. Observing the greatest commission in the world will lead people to the truth and the truth will set them free. Selah
Shalom, Agape, & Amen!
