An absolute means unequivocal, possessing unlimited power, to add emphasis or unmodified. Unfortunately, this word is quickly disappearing from the American culture. Absolutes are vanishing as lies, half truths and opinions have taken over the media, air waves and everyday conversations.
Meanwhile, facts are becoming obsolete like the type writer, record player and telephone booth. Politicians are repeating the same lies day after day hoping if they say it enough people will believe them. Sports radio celebrities critique anyone about everything without examining their own lives in a do as I say not as I do arena. Finally, television shows continue to copy one another, slide down the same immoral slippery slope as bored viewers keep clicking their remotes from channel to channel trying to find something meaningful without much success.
Like in the days of the prophet Ezekiel, God is looking for people who will go against the societal flow, stand up for Christ by standing in the gap created by a lack of absolutes, Ezekiel 22:30. The sad truth is Ezekiel could not find an Israelite who was willing to make a stand during his life. What about now? Who will rise out of the ashes of our fallen world and join Christians like Tim Tebow? Time is ticking away. Act now before its too late to save our country and its Christian heritage.
