CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 12, 2021
AS A NEWSPAPER COLUMNIST AND COMMENTATOR I RECEIVE A LOT OF RESPONSES FROM PEOPLE. THEY EITHER CALL ME NAMES AND SEND ME “PROOF” THAT I WAS WRONG, OR ENCOURAGE ME THAT I AM RIGHT. SOMETIMES THESE MESSAGES COME ABOUT THE SAME SUBJECT. EACH CAN’T BE RIGHT, SO WHICH ONE IS AND AM I ALWAYS RIGHT? OF COURSE NOT. NO ONE IS.
I’VE BEEN ASKED, “WHERE DO I GO TO FIND THE TRUTH?” “WHOM CAN I TRUST?”
“WHAT IS TRUTH?” THAT WAS A RELATIVISTIC QUESTION PILATE ASKED JESUS THAT DOMINATES THE WORLD TODAY. IF YOU BEGIN WITH NO STANDARD FOR TRUTH THEN HOW DO YOU FIND IT? HOW DO YOU CONVINCE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE DIFFERENTLY THAT NOT ONLY DOES TRUTH EXIST, THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE TRUTH. “TRUE TRUTH” THE LATE PHILOSOPHER-THEOLOGIAN FRANCIS SCHAEFFER CALLED IT.
JUST AS SCRIPTURE SAYS YOU MUST “WORK OUT YOUR OWN SALVATION” – NOT TO EARN IT, BUT TO PERFECT IT, SO YOU MUST SEARCH FOR TRUTH FROM PLACES THAT ARE RELIABLE. START WITH SCRIPTURE AND THEN DO YOUR DUE DILEGENCE AS YOU SHOULD DO WHEN INVESTING MONEY. INVEST IN TRUE TRUTH. I’M CAL THOMAS.
