Good morning! How are we faithing? Our minds are in danger every day. We can be influenced by constant bombardment from many sources compared to a hundred years ago. I am 60 and have seen 3 TV channels and newspapers turn into the net, hundreds of TV channels, social media. So what you say? The Nazi party in the 20's and 30's changed an entire population's mindset by lies told over and over. We as a society cannot sit still and allow ourselves to be manipulated in the same manner. Goebbel said that to move a society one must ignore intellect and appeal to emotions and instinct. We are witnessing that today with all those media outlets. The truth becomes suspect when many lie, and lies become believable because it "feels" right. We are charged as believers to seek truth. We cannot anymore know truth by sitting on pews Sunday and never open the Bible until next Sunday than we do by ignoring media blitzes and not use critical thinking to ask questions. Right now the media is destroying some young Catholic men over lies. The media doesn't even have enough integrity to walk their reports back or correct themselves. That is an agenda ladies and gentleman and that is dangerous.
Rom 8:6-7
For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
Job 21:14
Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways.
2Co 10:3-6
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
Heavenly Father,
We praise you and thank you for your Word. We ask for ourselves today to be aware of the enemies ploys and cognoscente enough to resist them. Lord, open our eyes to your truth. Help us stand when all others are falling. In Jesus name, amen
