This is Ken Ham, an Aussie transplant with a passion for sharing the truth of God’s Word.

Transcript

In the book of Judges, we read about a time when “everyone did what was right in their own eyes.” That’s America today! You see, in the past, America was a Christianized nation. People more or less started their thinking with a Christian worldview. We don’t have that shared foundation anymore.

We now live in a time where we think we set the rules. And, of course, if sinful, fallible human beings are the standard for morality, then sin is going to be normalized. As the prophet Isaiah put it, people will call bitter sweet and sweet bitter.

We can’t look to our culture for our morality. We need to go to God’s perfect unchanging Word.
