All things are relative. You can't tell me what is right or wrong. You cant push your morality on me. Just because it is wrong for you does not mean it is wrong for me or for my friend or someone else. As Christians we encounter those kind of arguments with our sons, daughters, acquaintances, friends, foes and the hardest in my experience are other well meaning "Christians."
I like to share a brief paragraph from C.S. Lewis, in Mere Christianity:
Whenever you find a man who says he does not believe in a Real Right or Wrong, you will find the same man going back on this a moment later. He may break his promise to you, but if you ty breaking one to him he will be complaining-- it's not fair, before you can say Jack Robinson. It seems we are forced to believe in a Right and Wrong. People may sometimes be mistaken about them, just as people sometimes get their sums wrong; but they are not a matter of mere taste and opinion and more than the multiplication table.
Romans 2:15 NIV since they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them.
Again C.S. Lewis:
this Law or Rule about Right and Wrong used to be called the Law of Nature...because people thought that every one knew it by nature and did not need to be taught it.
What are your thoughts to the above? Are there any example or examples in the Old Testament or New Testament that deals with the Relativity Myth? Try those for your workout for the week?
God Bless
