Brittney Griner: The Truth Hurts
Truth is under attack, and not only on our biblical belief, but truth and facts in general are under attack. North America was built on standards that stem from Biblical truths. Unfortunately, these very standards are being cut down in society today and the wrong things are being elevated as good.
So here's a quick example, a Brittney Grinner, a face of the WNBA, plays in Russia. When the war broke out with Ukraine, it was found out that she had tried to bring hashish oil into the country, which is illegal. She was arrested and initially no one said anything because they didn't want to upset any U.S. and Russia relations.
The U.S. government has said that she was arrested wrongfully, and now the WNBA is pushing for the U.S. government to free her. The WNBA came out and said, we're going to put her number on every court. We're gonna make sure she gets her full paid salary, and we're going to take care of Brittney.
What does that say about the state of our society, and what does it celebrate?
It's picking and choosing whatever side of the aisle you're on, whether you get celebrated or demonized. We saw it clearly with protests. It depends what protest you're at, whether you're allowed to do it, or whether you should just shut up. According to the media, even with civil disobedience, you can be celebrated, like those who rioted for the BLM protests. There are peaceful protests, where you can be demonized, and we saw it with the truckers. If you're on board with the truckers protest, you could lose your job!
It shows the standards of people who are considered elite. They have money, they're popular, and they are celebrated. The standards of elites are purely selfish. They feel they should be able to get away with what they want, when they want, and whatever narrative that fits them at the right time.
Elites That are Fighting for Social Justice:
Many people have been fighting for the justice of black lives. They want to put an end to the "systemic racism" that is in society today, they will share that on social media, seated by a pool, and in their gated community. Many of the elites will quote Martin Luther king Jr. and they bring up great quotes about equality and justice for all, which are all great things. The issue I have, is that they don't even believe the heart and essence of what MLK Jr. believed and shared. The standards of Martin Luther king Jr. are rooted in his relationship with God.
Here are some quotes you don't hear the elites share from Martin Luther king, Jr.
He says this,
"I would urge you to give priority to the search for God. Allow his spirit to permeate your being. If you do not have a deep, patient faith in God, you will be powerless to face the delays, disappointments and vicissitudes that inevitably come."
"By opening our lives to God in Christ, we become new creatures. This experience, which Jesus spoke of as the new birth, is essential if we are to be transformed noncomformists...Only through an inner spiritual transformation do we gain the strength to fight vigorously the evils of
