Liberty - who can define it? There seems to be much unrest in contemporary society because of all the varying opinions regarding how liberty should be understood. Humanist ideology looks to mankind's reason to develop a free society. Truth, for the humanist, is found through an ongoing introspection or self-revelation. They see themselves as ever evolving into a more free society by condoning certain behaviors that they believe were improperly prohibited by previous generations. People driven along by this secularist ideology attempt to cast off unjust social impediments to their will. They reason if a man wants to marry another man, a free society should allow this. If a woman finds a baby burdensome to her future aspirations, she should be allowed to free herself from that burden by aborting it. If perverse men want to pay our nation's daughters to expose themselves on the internet, a nation's concept of freedom should embrace this under the banner of "free speech." The list goes on and on. Over the last several decades, the secularists' concept of freedom has altered what Christians believe are foundational principles to an ethical society. The First Amendment to the United States' Constitution regarding religion has taken on a riddle like meaning in this modern environment. Congress is bound to humanist ideology by being prohibited to make any law respecting the establishment of religion while at the same time being prohibited to prevent our nation's constituents from freely exercising their religion. Christians exercise their religion by living by the ethical standards in which it mandates, while secularists derive their ethical standards from within their own reason, uninhibited by any idea of righteousness outside of themselves. The law of retribution in which Christians live is a matter of indifference to the secularists. Christians look at the conclusions humanists draw in regard to social ethics and find themselves dumbfounded. They can't believe the conversations they're being driven into along with the successes the humanists seem to be having within our culture's mores. Had you asked Christians twenty years ago if they believed we would be where we are today ethically, they would have scoffed at the possibility.In this book, I attempt to unpack this social quandary in which Christians find themselves today - both where it came from and what our proper response should be. And, maybe more importantly, how we find the correcting resolve through a proper understanding of our actually possessing liberty in Christ through the words of institution testified to us by our Lord in the sacrament of Communion. The operative faith which causes us to dwell within this true liberty will be the means of altering the modern culture in which we find ourselves for God's glory - not man's.
