Inconvenient Truth
If former Vice-President Al Gore’s Movie/Documentary, “Inconvenient Truth,” with its dire predictions about global warming, proves to be prophetic or not time will tell.
The truth is often inconvenient, that’s what makes speaking falsehood so appealing… it’s convenient. “Oh, I wasn’t speeding officer.”
Believe it or not truth can even be irrelevant at times, for instance, when your wife asks, “honey, does this dress make me look fat?” The answer is, “No!” The truth is irrelevant
Homosexuality is driving a wedge deep into the heart of society. Where once the dividing line was between the religious and the secular world view. Now the truth is often mocked as foolish and superstitious. Maybe we can find some common ground as we discuss the gay lifestyle. Homosexuality is not natural, can we agree on that? Normal in the sense it’s common yes, but natural, no. No matter how far down the evolutionary highway we travel two men having sex will never produce a baby.
The Bible is full of inconvenient truths, codes of conduct that are stifling and troublesome. Our bodies want pleasure, whatever the cost. Our pride and dainty little egos rebel at the thought of repentance and humility. Truth is a lot of things, including eternal. “It is appointed unto men to die once, and after that to face judgment.” (Hebrews 9:27) Inconvenient? Indeed. Irrelevant? Hardly.
