Liberalism/Heathenism
1. Negative volition suppresses the truth and seeks a substitute which
leads to the rise of heathenism and liberalism. This substitute may be
socialism, communism, or some other system of philosophical materialism, but
always follows the same pattern: Man seeking to establish perfect environment
by man’s activity.
2. Heathenism and liberalism begins
without truth. If your premise is without truth then no matter what the
conclusion is, it too, will be without truth.
3. Heathenism: Romans 1:18.
Liberalism: Romans 1:24,25.
4. Liberalism exploits the ignorance
of people by appealing to the basic lust and emotional patterns: i.e. food,
clothes, etc. Socialism destroys all basic institutions and human ingenuity.
5. Liberals satisfy their ego by
trying to play God. Everyone is equal, they say, but they have not the ability
or character to make everyone so.
6. Liberals seek a perfect world
apart from God. They do not have the capacity to do this either.
7. Hence, the principle of
liberalism is just an extension of heathenism.
8. Heathenism rejects the truth and
seeks a false god and false truth.
9. Heathenism rejects Jesus Christ
as saviour.
10. Liberalism is another
manifestation of heathenism, without the aboriginal or primitive culture.
11. Heathenism sets up a society
without God and seeks to replace or fill the vacuum with religion or other
gods. Pantheism (God and the universe are one); polytheism (deism — idealism).
12. Liberalism is designed to appeal
to the unsaved intellect, embraces his culture, and claims to be able to solve
his problems. An endless number of programs and gimmicks is tried but the
solution is never found. In the many programs come the many destructions — and
down goes the nation!
