A rare sharing from me on the present situation:
Comment from Family Research Council on the new “Myths and Disinformation Governance Board” that has just been established, that closely resembles the “Ministry of Truth” in the book 1984.
“Initiatives like this [1984] Ministry of Truth should drive us to prayer. Here is a good one from the Psalms: ‘Save, O Lord, for the godly one is gone; for the faithful have vanished from among the children of man. Everyone utters lies to his neighbor; with flattering lips and a double heart they speak…. On every side the wicked prowl as vileness is exalted among the children of man.'” (Psalm 12:1-2,8).
But, “the words of the Lord are pure words” (Psalm 12:6). May He “cut off all flattering lips, the tongue that makes great boasts” (Psalm 12:3) and “guard us from this generation forever” (Psalm 12:7).
We as believers are the real ministers of Truth. Let us speak it out in love and live it appropriately with power and wisdom that many be brought into the light. Let us pray for those caught in the web of lies that they may come to know Christ.
