Racial prejudice and gender discrimination are still strong realities in this world, yet race and gender are the only things one does not choose for oneself. In contrast, the opportunity to decide moral imperatives is being taken from us, while in fact, these are the things we do choose. That alone out to tell us what happens when we choose to redefine good and evil, and morality is buried in spiritual or political talk with no transcendent source of authority. We victimize people for no culpable reason and exonerate people in spite of their culpability. We end up with theories that put Hitler in heaven and consider the disciples fools for being willing to die for the truths of the gospels. But there will come a moment in which we will all stand before the ultimate Judge of the universe, a God who loves us and gave us the beautiful offer of salvation, and He will do that which is ultimately right. The Jesus who was lost where he should have been found, and who is found where we might not expect Him to be, is the Jesus who is wantonly misplaced by the New Spirituality. Ravi Zacharias from Why Jesus? Rediscovering His Truth in an Age of Mass-Marketed Spirituality
