Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!Does the above verse describe what we see today (division everywhere we look)? It sure seems to fit in most situations in my opinion. A lot of people are definitely confused about what is right and what is wrong and who has the authority to decide what is right and what is wrong. If that decision is left up to each individual (subjective moral reasoning) we end up with all of the problems that cause so much division in the first place; Believer/unbeliever; Creationism/Evolution; religious affiliation; conservative/liberal; pro life/pro choice; pro homosexual/anti homosexual; rich/poor; skin color/race; it goes on and on). To whom should we look to for the answers? The following verse tells us. Acts 5:29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
