The Dignity of Humanity

In the 150 years that Darwinism has been the accepted theory of the scientific community for the origin of mankind, it is not only the perception of God that has suffered.  A key "contribution" of the evolutionary hypothesis has been the destruction of the dignity of man.  If evolution is true then man is just an animal like all the rest.  He is not special, unique or otherwise worthy of attention.  The practical outworking of this new belief has been a litany of abuses against humanity.  Eugenics tried to breed the super man - the next evolutionary step forward.  Instead, it forcibly sterilized thousands of people because they were deemed unfit breeders.  Hitler tried to create his master race exterminating the lesser races.  Today abortion murders millions of babies, because they are not human, but "just a lump of fetal tissue."

But mankind does have dignity.  We were created in the image of God (Gen. 1:26-27).  By eliminating God from the hypothesis, man has unwittingly removed the only reason that makes man special in the first place.

The Lord's Prayer

"This prayer begins where all true prayer must commence, with the spirit of adoption, "Our Father." There is no acceptable prayer until we can say, "I will arise, and go unto my Father." This childlike spirit soon perceives the grandeur of the Father "in heaven" and ascends to devout adoration, "Hallowed by thy name." The child lisping, "Abba, Father," grows into the cherub crying, "Holy, Holy, Holy." ----Charles Spurgeon

My Sheep

I will feed them with good pasture, and on the mountain heights of Israel shall be their grazing land. There they shall lie down in good grazing land, and on rich pasture they shall feed on the mountains of Israel.  I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I myself will make them lie down, declares the Lord GOD. (Eze 34:14-15 ESV)   This has been our western view from our cottage this week in Scotland.  The peak is Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the U.K.
