Clarification
I am increasingly certain that this time in which we live is a time God has appointed for clarification.
The sudden appearance of the word, and the concept, "post-truth" is doubtless part of that clarification. In Christ, no distinction could be greater, and so more clarifying, than the one between "The Truth" He IS, and all that is not of Him.
God also seems to be clarifying to us righteousness, and its opposite. Again, He's made that distinction clearer by letting unrighteousness grow increasingly manifest. Particularly, increasingly manifest in our politics.
The brightness of greater light seems to have blinded some, who write off lies and unrighteousness as "just politics." So in this time of backward and upside-down moral thinking, particularly in the Church, it's probably necessary to re-affirm the obvious: "politics" is man's device, and Truth and righteousness, God's. The lesser is measured by the greater: man's ways by God's.
Our ways are measured by God's, and the clarity He is giving us at this time must be understood in that context. He is giving us more light so our walk will more surely and closely follow The One Who IS "The Way."
So be it, Father !
