Don’t Try to Fit into the Worldly Systems
The meanings of liberalism and conservatism persist to the present from the beginnings in the French Revolution. And both can be found in the Church. Neither wants to be led by the Holy Spirit and yielded in obedience to Him.
The liberals want to eliminate or distort the Bible. The conservatives want to follow the Bible as dead letter. But what about those who do seek to follow Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to reveal the meaning of the Bible? The liberals call them conservatives. The conservatives call them liberals. They don’t fit into the worldly systems.
In the 1800s, Satan built on the foolishness of liberalism with false science and false intellectualism to cast doubt on the history in the Bible. Satan then worked to weaken the church and teach the church to walk without the leading of Jesus Christ, without Wisdom and Truth that flows from Christ.
The conservatives tried to put God’s flowing River of revelation into cisterns for safe keeping, but they were broken cisterns that couldn’t hold the River of God.
Since then, Satan has promoted sexual sin, envy, covetousness, murder, stealing, disobedience to parents, disrespect for authority, and disrespect for God. You see it all around you. Those have been active in the fallen human nature since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, but they are now coming to the maturity of evil.
